Lyrics (Also included in the video):

There was a king
Living carefree
He wanted the world he wanted everything

He ruled with a fist
His people were starved
He watched as they begged behind his castle guards

Diamonds and pearls
Emeralds and gold
He bathed in the riches only he could know

But with time came age
His health in decline
The fate of his legacy left to the tides

So he ran to his queen and demanded a child
Planted his seed then he cast her aside
Several moons later she bore him a son
But died just to give him his own flesh and blood

Ooh
Ooh

The son grew like weeds
He soon was eighteen
He ventured outside of the castle to see

The faces so gaunt
The dead in the streets
They cried out for help but nobody could hear

Deep down inside him something had stirred
He laughed at the ruins his father incurred
Fire in his veins he stormed back to the throne
Stared down the king with a rage still unknown

Ooh

The father decreed
The new rule of law
His son to be banished outside of the walls

But the son had a plan
And his heart was convinced
There’d never be room for both king and a prince

He rallied the people and charged through the gates
Shield in one hand but the other a blade
With one fell swoop his own father deposed
He sat on the throne and adorned his new crown

Ooh

The son was elated
The kingdom was his
Diamonds and emeralds and gold-plated bliss

But what of the people
The legends don’t say
Just like a memory
They faded away

There was a king
Living carefree
He wanted the world he wanted everything

Thank you for sharing my new song, Sinnon! ❤

Hope you guys like it 🥹🌹

[AVA-eepk]

I love how it repeats when a new king comes into power

[sanslovia]

It’s not a song
It’s literally a story

Another job amazingly done!

[fandujapon]

The song is actually the proof that greediness, money and power can transform anyone into a bad person, making them forget about their own principles and goals. That's so sad.

Update : I didn't say much and one month later there's a whole conversation going on under my comment about "survival instincts" LMAO.
That was fun to read, thanks! XD

[chocoman_sleepy]

the lyrics is just so deep. authority and pelf do twist a person into another. a great work and also a fantastic nightcore😃😃😃

[Grace-mmit]

This would go amazingly with the daughter or evil series

[indoraptor]

I just realised that the different colours of the son's eyes in the video artwork could represent the son's different natures:
His blue eye represents his caring nature and how he wanted to overthrow the king to better the people
His red eye represents his nature similar to his father, a greedy uncaring tyrant

[krewlthethird]

The Music and the story is Perfect enough to make us imagine the entire story in our mind

[nezukokamado]

[Jetbladewarrior]

Really great Nightcore if I was a King and if Anime girls was real I would want Sinnon or 1 of my waifus as a queen.

[lorddevil]

That was amazing I love it thank you for making video ☺️

[dumkenadine]

I like this Song that's perfect 😌🙂

[portermcintire]

the moral of the story
power can corrupt easily & if you're not careful you can/will become what you despise
in the words of an uncle everyone knows "With great power, comes great responsibility."

[littleredstar]

I love this song! I'm currently looking for new songs with this theme (rulers, princes, princesses, knights, kingdoms, that sort of thing) so I wanted to know if yall had any recommendations please XD

[thefinalcalamity]

That ending their is really deep he with the people fought to kill the bad king only to have it all start again

[EtsuDaiKaemon]
