Thank God It's Not Friday - King Waves Lyrics

He used to rule all you see
Over trees and the land
But every grain of sand was free
Under the reign of his hand
He used to rule all you see
Over caves and the sand
But every inch of land was free
And this made him a grand king
But grand comes with a price
Some don't know what's right
And they made his life change
For the worst from one night to another
I am not what I was
But I haven't lost it all
I forgot what I was
But you still respect me
I have built an empire that has survived
Without me at its side (Because I was never at the top)
I am not what I was
Thank you for waiting for me
He would fight wars for peace
But inside of his mind
Because on the outside no one had to die
Until it was their time, written in time
He would fight wars for peace
Always stood in front line
Because behind his back no one had to die
Until he died, he was their lifeline
They thought I would be weak
But now I'm the ruler of the sea
Business man from NC
Visited us each year
Saw reports and studies
Said "your majesty
A capitalist economy will benefit this country"
But the king refused
And NC thought him rude
So they turned the monarchy
Into something they would fear
But they didn't stop to think
That a kingdom would never run from their king
