King of the World

How could I forget your name?
Remember a few years ago, when we were basically the same...
person in line, waiting for the day
that we would rule the world.

Young and afraid,
we dove headfirst into waves.
Breaking free from the cage
that contained our inner demons but,
yours was a monster, greedy and dangerous.
Dragging down the both of us.
Now there’s cages in between us.

Not everyone’s fit for a crown,
now those people bow down,
cause they backed down and now
you’re in the shadows.
