I am a king of honor Gold and glory But every king must also die Have I been just and righteous What is glory I know I've torn and taken life And here I stand A small and simple man Who will trade his karma for my kingdom A sacrificial right to render truth The fire in my soul rejects my wisdom 'Cause all you do in life comes back to you I am a king in crisis Counting minutes There is an ending to my reign My sins have come to face me
I can feel it That I have lived my life in vain And now I know I'll reap The seeds I've sown Who will trade his karma for my kingdom A sacrificial right to render truth The fire in my soul rejects my wisdom 'Cause all you do in life comes back to you Am I mad I feel so void and cold Who can tell Who holds the stories untold Tired and trembling I am descending Will I have to stay here And live this life again
