I Can Be King

The drugs are getting so bad
I can see how bad I’ve been
But now I’m seeing
Some things that I never thought I would

It’s probably not the best idea
But it’s certainly not the worst
Time stands still for a moment
When this cigarette starts to burn

I can be the king again tonight

The thugs are sweating so bad
They can see the time is now
But they’re still waiting
Looks like they’ve missed the point somehow

It’s probably not the best idea
But it’s certainly not the worst
Time stands still for a moment
When this cigarette starts to burn

Systematic breakdown, we gotta keep the trash
No one seems to know how long it’s gonna last
Sympathetic shakedown, forget about the cash
No one seems to know how long it’s gonna last
