In every heart, there is a drum that beats
Steady and strong, it does not know defeat
I feel it pound, and know the sound
Of true beliefs
In every soul, there is a memory
Of standing tall, the proudest we could be
I cannot fall, for I recall
We were born in majesty
And when the long fight, has been fought and won
We'll stand in the sun
[Chorus:]
And we will raise out hands
And we will touch the sky
Together we will dance in robes of gold
And we will leave the world remembering
When we were kings, when we were kings
Now is the time, here is the mountain top
When one man climbs, the rest are lifted up
With every step we're closer yet
To a higher destiny
And when we reach out to claim the thrown
Every man will know
[Chorus]
Do you remember
When we were kings
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
And when the long fight, has been fought and won
We'll stand in the sun
[Chorus]
