The Fallen King

Hahahaha...
I  enjoy and I devour flesh and wine, and luxury...
But in my heart, I am no one, nothing ever really...touches me

Just when I had paid the way to say that he made it
All the paper that I made, I wasn't able to save it
Maybe 'cause when I was paid I never gave 'em the praises
It's outrageous tryna reach higher material stages
Tryna view life through my own eyes, the par I was blessed with
'Cause once you touch a lot of cash, your character's tested
Some reek  of a degenerative arrogant essence
Until his humble  brought down and his talents arrested
Knew that once I'd my peek I'd be a permanent fixture
The love I hid was nothing like I had pictured
I was paranoid and lonely and my heart was in darkness
Standing on, looking down just made me wanting jump off it
With no sound, foundation to base my investment
The power made me crazy and evasive the question
Knew deep down from the start that future greatness was destined
But for me, the quest of chasing love is like chasing depression

I dwelled in the palace, I bathed in the cash
I stood on the mountain top, I drank from the glass
Thought that I could rule the world, but couldn't handle the throne
In the end The Fallen King was left standing alone

You see, I dwelled in the palace, I bathed in the cash
I stood on the mountain top, I drank from the glass
Thought that I could rule the world, but couldn't handle the throne
In the end The Fallen King was left standing alone

It took a small amount of time for my greedy mind to ground me
The wealth destroyed myself  and the people around me
And anything of good that men would happen to mention
Saw the people I stepped on during my rapid descension
As I fell from grace I witnessed the faces above
I never once wanted the cash to take the place of the love
But it did, until my heart developed stronger resistance
And the lustful things I lived for were no longer sufficient
I would bask into bank accounts some massive amounts
But it's only so much property in cash you can count
Achieving success, birds are prey, bleeding my nest
All the uses and the parasites that leech on your flesh
Drop my soul in every low-in, there's so many cold winds
And cover the loneliness with females over indulgence
Had it all and still had nothing, worshiped the wealth
The misguided king who possessed everything but himself

In my heart, I am no one, nothing ever really...touches me

Yeah...Nothing...
High on arrogance, drunk on price, fueled by greed, failed when I was trailed
High on arrogance, drunk on price, fueled by greed, failed when I was trailed 

I dwelled in the palace, I bathed in the cash
I stood on the mountain top, I drank from the glass
Thought that I could rule the world, but couldn't handle the throne
In the end The Fallen King was left standing alone

You see, I dwelled in the palace, I bathed in the cash

In the end The Fallen King was left standing alone

Mind state worsining, what is this I'm worshiping?
Who would be that person that could bring me down to Earth again?
Humility burgeoning, ego sharps circling
Searching for a new chance on a turf like it was first in ten
I had a few people who tried to make me reapply
And I under appreciated them, no need for me to lie
The king was a conceded guy
Who found out why is harder for a rich man to reach Heaven than a camel to pass through a needle's eye
Tears after every smile, no situation
Meant nothing, unless it gave me instant gratification
They say money's not everything, and they're right, is really not
But those words are usually said by those who have none or a lot
The dynamics of our lives are  greatly diversified
Happy poor folks and rich men who commit suicide
Had to lose it all just to accomplish the real prize
The king who had to fall in order to rise
