Lyrics

King (Re-Recording)

King, where are your people now?

Chained and pacified

Tried in vain to show them how

And for that you died

You had a dream of a promised land

People of all nations walking hand in hand

But they're not ready to accept

That dream situation, yet

King, where are your people now?

Chained and pacified

Tried in vain to show them how

And for that you died
