The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus & Kellin Quinn Lyrics

"Always The King"
(feat. Kellin Quinn)

I was always the king
I was always the king
Always the king
I was always the king

Heavy was my head from the crown, so I put it down
Somehow found my way through the underground
Crowned king again anyhow

I know where I came from, I've still got love for the hometown
Fought my way back up through the underground
Crowned king again anyhow

It brought me fame, everything I wanted
But that won't last, only for a moment
And in my heart I knew it could, and in my heart I knew it should
Didn't know what I was fighting for
Didn't think that they could make me bleed
They could never hurt me anymore
I was always the king

How many times do I need to prove myself before you shut your mouth?
Yeah, I know you well, you put me through hell
You're always looking for that high

I know where I came from, I've still got love for the hometown
Fought my way back up through the underground
Crowned king again anyhow

It brought me fame, everything I wanted
But that won't last, only for a moment
And in my heart I knew it could, and in my heart I knew it should
Didn't know what I was fighting for
Didn't think that they could make me bleed
They could never hurt me anymore
I was always the king

I was always the king
Always the king
I was always the king
This is so worth fighting for
Yeah

You thought that I would run?
You thought that I would hide?
My pride won't let me
You wanna fight?
I'll bring you a war

It brought me fame, everything I wanted
But that won't last, only for a moment
And in my heart I knew it could, and in my heart I knew it should
Didn't know what I was fighting for
Didn't think that they could make me bleed
They could never hurt me anymore
I was always the king
