If Ozymandias weren't a king
He wouldn't be free
And what about me?
I think we taught ourselves that we could speak
So we could take leave
So how could I ever love myself
If eventually I'm you?
And how could I ever love myself
If you don't love me too?
We're singing "mom
Time is so gross, mom
Turning young men so old, mom
Turning old mom to ghosts, mom
This is a toast, mom, yea!
(Praise to the lord!)
I don't wanna grow old, mom
(Just hold on)
(You're think of)
I don't wanna grow old, mom
(Just hold on)
('Cause he loves you!)
Give me that God I can hold, mom
(So f*cking much)
(Hands to the sky I can hold on!)
If Ozymandias weren't a king
He wouldn't be free
And what about me?
If Ozymandias weren't a king
He wouldn't be free
So I could die for a touch of fame
It's not our faults we're insane
'Cause what could I ever do or say
That don't retrace to my brain?
We're singing "mom..."
(No not this time
Can't live my life in a rewind)
So kick back to that funky music
Shout out to the grandpapas and mamas to
I'm so young I wanna change my motivations
I want it so bad I'm never gonna make it
And all this explanation so they know I'm king
Though I cannot be more than what I'm made to be
If Ozymandias weren't a king
He wouldn't be free
And what about me?
And the toxins and their children
And they talk when they are sleeping
And they're godless but they're walking
Like a prophet in a closet
Man I lost it
So take my soul on an asteroid belt
To a pleasure or a pain
Or etch my soul on an aeroplane
To another time and place
