Lion King Lyrics

When you're born into the shadow

Of a man who's gone before

Yeah you're thrust into a legacy

A destiny you can't ignore

My potential looking skyward

Your guidance I implored

Yeah I look for you direction and how

You ruled your kingdom with a roar

I don't want to press fast forward

I only want to hit rewind

Maybe I'm not strong enough

To be the alpha of my kind

I wasn't born to be a leader

I'll use your spirit as a guide

With time it will get easier

Being the king of my pride

The king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

The king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

When your fate had been determined

So cruelly tore away

No I can't escape the anger

Dark thoughts lead me astray

Time to shoulder the emotion

We live to fight another day

I'll be the man I'll be the leader

Marching onto brighter days

I don't want to press fast forward

I only want to hit rewind

Maybe I'm not strong enough

To be the alpha of my kind

I wasn't born to be a leader

I'll use your spirit as a guide

With time it will get easier

Being the king of my pride

The king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

The king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

I don't want to press fast forward

I only want to hit rewind

Maybe I'm not strong enough

To be the alpha of my kind

I wasn't born to be a leader

I'll use your spirit as a guide

With time it will get easier

Being the king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

The king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

I'll be the man I'll be the leader

The king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

I'll be the alpha of my kind

The king of my pride

(oh woah oh woah oh woah)

I'll rule my kingdom with a roar

The king of my pride
