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
