I'm the king of the world, my wrists are bleedin',
Life's a crazy ride, but I keep succeedin'.
Got a crown on my head, but my head's a mess,
I'm down one minute, next, I'm still the best.
Feelin' less, oh yes
I'm ridin' high, yeah, feelin' so elite,
Then I crash, layin' on the street.
But hey, it's cool, I'll just fake a grin,
Because the only way is to keep it in.
I'm up, I'm down
I'm on top, but I'm fallin' fast,
Laughin' it off, 'cause nothin' lasts.
I'm a king with a crown, but I'm fallin' apart,
Never doubtin' myself, call me Descartes.
Doubtin', Descartes
I'm flyin' high, then I'm hit with the blues,
But that's just life, nothin' new to lose.
I was just on top, sippin' champagne,
Now I'm cryin' on the floor, but it's all the same.
It's all the same, man, who to blame?
I make a move, take a win, I'm the star,
But five seconds later, I'm crashin' my car.
I'm killin' the game, yeah, life's so sweet,
Until I'm hittin' the ground with bruised-up feet.
But who's countin'? Not me, I swear,
Rollin' with the punches, like I don't care.
I'm up, I'm down
I'm on top, but I'm fallin' fast,
Laughin' it off, 'cause nothin' lasts.
I'm a king with a crown, but I'm fallin' apart,
Never doubtin' myself, call me Descartes.
Doubtin', Descartes
I'm flyin' high, then I'm hit with the blues,
But that's just life, nothin' new to lose.
I'm the hero and the joke, both at once,
Feelin' like a genius, but also a dunce.
Genius, dunce, what's the punch?
I win, I lose, I fall, I rise,
One second I'm legend, next, I'm despised.
But hey, it's cool, I just keep on rollin',
Life's a mess, but I'm still patrollin'.
I'm up, I'm down
I'm on top, but I'm fallin' fast,
Laughin' it off, 'cause nothin' lasts.
I'm a king with a crown, but I'm fallin' apart,
Never doubtin' myself, call me Descartes.
Doubtin', Descartes
I'm flyin' high, then I'm hit with the blues,
But that's just life, nothin' new to lose.
Yeah, I'm the king of the world, wrists still bleedin',
But no worries, 'cause I'm still succeedin'.
Still succeedin', still succeedin'
From the top to the bottom, and back again,
I'll keep on smilin', just call me Ken.
Smilin' through, smilin' through
