Kings by Tam Duong
Really not sure about the first line of the bridge, but this is mostly what it sounds like :)
Verse 1
Cement and steel frames
Donât mean too much to me
For nothing ever rivals the sound of sweet melody
Iâd trade it all for music
Business meetings for a stage
A fountain pen for a mic in hand
Yes, that seems fair to me
Refrain 1
The freedom to make love and music
Thatâs the freedom of a king
Verse 2
What s worth the fight
Bright ideas just a dead-end streetlight
What s born innate, left idle never sits right
I found it when I was 16, lied to myself till I was 19
Didnât want to wake at 50 and ask; what have I done?
Refrain 2
The freedom to make love and music
Thatâs the freedom of a king
Chorus 1
Dreams are what you chase
Dreams are what you keep safe
Seems they re the first to break
When you shouldnât have waited
Do what you love, for love is what leads to happiness
And thatâs all we really want in the end
Verse 3
The day will come
When my son will ask me
If he can chase his pipe dream
A throne of his own
And Iâll fear for him like all good parents do,
But tell him itâs not up to me
Itâs up to you
Refrain 3
The freedom to make love and music
Thatâs the freedom of a king
Chorus 2
Dreams are what you chase
Dreams are what you keep safe
Seems they re the first to break
When you shouldnât have waited
Do what you love, for love is what leads to happiness
And thatâs all we really want in the end
Bridge
I might be crazy, but Iâm strumming
My fate may seem insane
But I won t sign my life away
Oh no

Outro
I arrived on a sailing ship
From a land not far from here
My father was the king and I was born
To carry on his legacy
My father said that one day his kingdom
Would all be mine to keep
But I declined with an innocent smile
N. C.
Because I know itâs not my dream
