lyrics

We’re staring at the ceremony of our own defeat
The people they are tearing down your statues in the street
I only ever pray to you, god knows that I do
He tells me to keep praying cos no one else seems to

You've got the power of the universe
In your fingertips
It’s electric
You collect it
Like a hoarder
Give me an order
You shout obey me
I say first you tame me baby

Tumbling buildings
Now we’re part of the ruin
All of the glamour and luxury
Turns to dust, rust
Specks of gold
Fresh prince is getting old
We must do as we’re told
Or we’ll be done for

Give me something
Or someone to run for
I can’t see clearly
But i need you near me
From my point of vantage
You’re my advantage
People bow down to
The king of the dark age


The forests and the fountains they are lit up like the sun
In the morning they’ll sing war chants for the end will have begun
I wish that you’d listen to me, you say i’m just a girl
But I know you’d give rome to me
'Cos I know I’m your world

I have heard the whispers in the courtrooms and the halls
I’m glad they think i’m stupid when in fact I know it all

Tumbling buildings
Now we’re part of the ruin
All of the glamour and luxury
Turns to dust, rust
Specks of gold
Fresh prince is getting old
We must do as we’re told
Or we’ll be done for

Give me something
Or someone to run for
I can’t see clearly
But i need you near me
From my point of vantage
You’re my advantage
People bow down to
The king of the dark age

Baby
I know you want it all
All the power of the world
Do you that you deserve the right to rule?
Baby
I've tried to tell you over
And over and over
You tell i don’t have a clue


I’ve taken 3 shots of poison
I’m hanging of the balcony
I can see the city outline
As far as the eye can see

Your empire is falling down
The emperor can’t stop it now

Tumbling buildings
Now we’re part of the ruin
All of the glamour and luxury
Turns to dust, rust
Specks of gold
Fresh prince is getting old
We must do as we’re told
Or we’ll be done for

Give me something
Or someone to run for
I can’t see clearly
But i need you near me
From my point of vantage
You’re my advantage
People bow down to
The king of the dark age
