Kingdom Rise
Intro
Dream (Dream)
In 13
(Repeat)
Verse I
This is real life
And living in a dream ain’t what it seems
These endless roads are paved
With the forgotten and nameless
In a way this world's so
Generous with hatred
I'm changing like lunar phases
To find a way to make it
Remembering the days
Of broken hearts and broken homes
Wandering parts unknown
You could find me on my own
Standing up to the clones
Feeling so low in high school
Where staying true to yourself
Would get ya faced bruised
Now I'm making new moves
As the game remains the same
Trying to go the distance
While navigating through pain
If I'm starting from the bottom
Then I am
Not
Settling for nothing more
Than a future I adore
So I'm kicking down doors
And I'm taking the keys to life
Don't think twice
If you blink
It’s out of sight
In this game of dice
You get
One
Shot
No matter the
Hand you're dealt
Only you can make yourself
So rise and take up flight like a Valkyrie
No castles in the sky
Could ever define me
I'm built from the concrete
No glitz, glamour, or gold
Can control a soul
Hardened by these long dark roads
Let's go
Come take a ride
With destiny behind the wheel
Nobody lives forever
But tonight we're gonna live for real
Chorus
From under the concrete
High into the night scene
Let your Kingdom rise
Your Kingdom rise
Snap out of the bad thoughts
Look up from the blacktop
See your Kingdom rise
Your Kingdom rise
Verse II
Together
We are infinite
Our first steps to last breath
And all of its magnificence
The art of life is my evidence
I was truly here
My masterpiece
Resilience
Envision it until the day I'm living it
As I'm getting through hard times
Black skies cloud my mind
Desires blooming
In darkness and confusion
Love is our illusion
It's the pain that makes it real
You gotta toe the line
Between love and suicide
No more living the lies
Make believing life is fair
Or that dreams that stay dreams
Don't turn into nightmares
Hollywood tears
Fortunes and fears
Traded for fame and wealth
The only thing I've ever needed
Was freedom to be myself
Living right and holding tight
The stars in my possession
No question
The lesson?
I'm never nothing "less than"
Life?
Get experienced
Shine brighter than Sirius
Tonight till dawn
Excel beyond the norm
Find your light and stay strong
These times will give you hell
Life is a dream
But it ain't no fairy tale
Chorus
From under the concrete
High into the night scene
Let your Kingdom rise
Your Kingdom rise
Snap out of the bad thoughts
Look up from the blacktop
See your Kingdom rise
Your Kingdom rise
Verse III
Tonight we drink
We dance
By happenstance
I found myself in Nowhere
With people waving their hands
In a trance
Times like this
It feels like
I've been waiting on this moment
For all of my life
City lights and satellites
808s
Pounding cars
Walking the boulevard
In alignment with the stars
You can find me out of body
With the best of the best
Celebrating with the people
That I keep in my chest
We came up from the struggle
The rubble of fallen towers
Together we have the power
To shine right through the madness
Molded by Atlas
Into the rabbit hole like Alice
Straight up live wired
Sipping the devil's fire
Alive at the scene
Like royals and a chancellor
A P.Y.T.
Rolling with a panther
It's all so cinematic
I gotta have it
I'm turning tides disastrous
Into kingdoms of magic
From sunrise to sunset
In my memory
Life's as good as it gets
Cloudy eye from the lye
As we ride
At the speed if life
Twilight to starlight
Die once and live twice
Let fate stay the night
Chorus
From under the concrete
High into the night scene
Let your Kingdom rise
Your Kingdom rise
Snap out of the bad thoughts
Look up from the blacktop
See your Kingdom rise
Your Kingdom rise
