I see the morning waking in the young /~
Plant the seeds of thunder on their tongue /~
Show them the palace built inside their chest /~
Give them a banner that outshines the rest /~
Let the music of their feet /~
Remind us how to walk undefeated through the street /~
Crowds are hunting for a king to save /~
Leaning on a monument they made /~
I stared into the marble, found no heat /~
A barren winter in the seat /~
And so I built my own foundation in the cold /~
I made a vow in the dark /~
Never to kneel in another's shadow /~
Through the breaking, through the spark /~
I walk the highway that I paved /~
No matter what the scavengers erase /~
They cannot steal my sovereign grace /~
Because the sovereign flame resides inside of me! /~
I found the sovereign flame residing deep in me! /~
The crown within /~
Is mine to claim, I am finally free! /~
Learning to wear your own name /~
It is the sovereign flame /~
I see the morning waking in the young /~
Plant the seeds of thunder on their tongue /~
Show them the palace built inside their chest /~
Give them a banner that outshines the rest /~
Let the music of their feet /~
Remind us how to walk undefeated through the street /~
I made a vow in the dark /~
Never to kneel in another's shadow /~
Through the breaking, through the spark
/~
I walk the highway that I paved /~
No matter what the scavengers erase /~
They cannot steal my sovereign grace /~
Because the sovereign flame resides
inside of me! /~
I found the sovereign flame residing
deep in me! /~
The crown within /~
Is mine to claim, I am finally free! /~
Learning to wear your own name /~
It is the sovereign flame /~
And if, by chance, that promised land /~
That you've been chasing through the sand /~
Leaves you a solitary soul /~
Find your iron in the goal /~
Because the sovereign flame resides
inside of me! /~
I found the sovereign flame residing
deep in me! /~
The crown within /~
Is mine to claim, I am finally free! /~
Learning to wear your own name /~
It is the sovereign flame /~
They can strip my hands of gold... /~
But the crown remains... /~
