King for a Day

I keep it cool when I'm knee-deep in fools There are some battles that you just shouldn't choose Everyday's a struggle for the truth win or lose I am like a lion, you're the food Heed the warning or silence the lambs You are just a boy, I am a man Wise enough to hit your brain with the facts Wise enough to know when not to react When I am old, I'll remember what my father told me You could be a king for a day or a fool for eternity I keep it stored in my thoughts like a reservoir I don't waste my breath, I don't care 'bout your repertoire I hear the sound of your brain spin round As quiet as a mouse six feet underground Empty as a vessel, like ship run aground Silence is the savior I have found Heed the warning or silence the lambs You are just a boy, I am a man Wise enough to hit your brain with the facts Wise enough to know when not to react When I am old, I'll remember what my father told me You could be a king for a day or a fool for eternity I keep it stored in my thoughts like a reservoir I don't waste my breath, I don't care 'bout your repertoire
