Lyrics

I try to (Em)fit You in the (G)walls in side my mind.

I try to (Em)keep You safe ly (G)in be tween the lines.

I try to (Em)put You in the (G)box that I’ve de signed.

I try to (Em)pull You down so (G)we are eye to eye.

When did (C)I for get that You’ve (Em)al ways been the (G)King of the world?

I try to (C)take life back, right (Em)out of the hands of the (G)King of the world.

How could I make You so small when You’re the One who holds it all?

When did (C)I for get that You’ve (Em)al ways been the (G)King of the world?

Just a (Em)whis per of Your (G)voice can tame the seas,

so (Em)who am I to (G)try to take the lead?

Still, I (Em)run a head and (G)think I’m strong e nough,

when (Em)You’re the One who (G)made me from the dust.

When did

Ooh,

You set it all in mo tion,

ev ’ry sin gle mo ment.

You brought it all to be,

and You’re hold ing on to me.

When did (C)I for get that You’ve (Em)al ways been the (G)King of the world?

I try to (C)take life back, right (Em)out of the hands of the (G)King of the world.

How could I make You so small when You’re the One who holds it all?

When did (C)I for get You’ve (Em)al ways been the (G)King of the world?

You will al ways be the (G)King of the world.
