ALICIA KEYS - Not Even The King lyrics

rate me

Some people so poor all they got is money

Oh, in darkness

Some peoṗle wait till they count all their assets

I don’t care what they bring,

They can have everything

They can’t afford what we got,

Not even the king

They can’t afford what we got,

Not even the king

Castles, it’s as almost they’re good in castles

Surrounded by people they ain’t been afraid,

That’s not what they take home

Oh,

I don’t care what they bring,

They can have everything

They can’t afford what we got,

Not even the king

They can’t afford what we got,

Not even the king

All the king’s horses and all the king’s men

Charge every ghetto we got

They oṗen the crown, and they open the throne

But I already got all that I want

All the king’s horses and all the king’s men

They came marching through

They offer the world just to get what we got

But I found the world in you

I found a world in you

Of innocence

Your arms around me worth more than a kingdom

Yeah, believe that

But trust’s very real, the king’s never felt that

Yeah this is the song we sing

We don’t need anything

They can’t afford this

This is priceless

They can’t afford what we’ve got

Not even the king

They can’t afford what we got,

Not even the king
