King for a Day Lyrics by NateWantsToBattle

Thnks fr Mr Cvrs

2020

[Verse 1: NateWantsToBattle, Ahren Gray, Both]
Dare me to jump off of this Jersey bridge
I bet you never had a Friday night like this
Keep it up, keep it up, let's raise our hands
I take a look up at the sky and I see red
Red for the cancer, red for the wealthy
Red for the drink that's mixed with suicide
Everything red

[Pre-Chorus: AmaLee]
Please, won't you push me for the last time?
Let's scream until there's nothing left
So sick of playing, I don't want this anymore
The thought of you's no fucking fun
You want a martyr, I'll be one
Because enough's enough, we're done

[Chorus: NateWantsToBattle]
You told me, "Think about it," well, I did (I did)
Now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore
I'm tired of begging for the things that I want
I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor

[Post-Chorus: Ahren Gray]
Yeah!

[Verse 2: NateWantsToBattle]
The thing I think I love will surely bring me pain
Intoxication, paranoia and a lot of fame
Three cheers for throwing up, pubescent drama queen
You make me sick, I make it worse by drinking late

[Pre-Chorus: AmaLee, NateWantsToBattle]
Scream, scream, scream, scream
Scream, scream until there's nothing left
So sick of playing, I don't want to anymore
The thought of you's no fucking fun
You want a martyr, I'll be one
Because enough's enough, we're done

[Chorus: NateWantsToBattle, AmaLee, Ahren Gray]
You told me, "Think about it," well, I did (I did)
Now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore
I'm tired of begging for the things that I want
I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor
Imagine living like a king someday
A single night without a ghost in the walls
And if the bass shakes the earth underground
We'll start a new revolution now
Now!

[Pre-Chorus: Ahren Gray]
Alright here we go

[Bridge: NateWantsToBattle, Both]
Hail Mary, forgive me
Blood for blood, hearts beating, oh
Come at me, now this is war
Fuck with this new beat, oh

[Breakdown: NateWantsToBattle, Ahren Gray, Both]
Now terror begins inside a bloodless vein
I was just a product of the street youth rage
Born in this world without a voice or say
Caught in the spokes with an abandoned brain
I know you well, but this ain't a game
Blow the smoke in diamond shape
Dying is a gift, so close your eyes
And rest in peace

[Chorus: NateWantsToBattle, AmaLee]
You told me, "Think about it," well, I did
Now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore
I'm tired of begging for the things that I want
I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor
Imagine living like a king someday
A single night without a ghost in the walls
We are the shadows screaming, "Take us now!"
We'd rather die than live to rust on the ground

[Outro: NateWantsToBattle]
Shit
