When you’re caught in the clutches of what you grab
You wield the knife but yourself you stab
What you hunt takes your power away
Hunter then becomes the prey
Release now from my bands
By the strength of my own hands
I am the King of me and my destiny
I am the gatekeeper of my mind
Like silence refused by the drum
To these falsities I will not succumb
And like darkness refused by the sun
I sing back these clouds of confusion
The time has come to sing forth for some
For whose time has come To unite as one
Up from the shadows we come
Breaking the bonds of illusion
By the law that says we are all one
I’m up to get some self sovereignty
I am the king of me
Sovereignty
I am the king of me
And my destiny
I’m the gatekeeper of my mind
The intuiter of the sign
You rule you and I rule me
He that angers you, conquers you
She that brings you down has stolen you
Kings and queens, get your self sovereignty
Its about getting your mind free
Like silence refused by the drum
To these falsities I will not succumb
And like darkness refused by the sun
I sing back these clouds of illusion
The time has come to sing forth for some
For whose time has come To unite as one
Up from the shadows we come
Breaking bonds of illusion
By the law that says we are all one
I hear a new song its called “self sovereignty”
I am the king of me
Sovereignty
I rule my destiny
