Chosen One (feat. Amy Jean)

Whatever words we speak
Should be chosen with care
For people will hear them
And will be influenced by them
For good or for ill

I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open
I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open

Last night I had a dream
Identical to one I've seen
Same theme
Same couch
Passed out in the same jeans
It seems insane
But there's a beam of light
And I ain't scared of it
I'm committed to the fight
This can't be life
I'm in New York for this moment
Last one was in Philly with this girl I used to go with
I woke up then
I knew I had to getaway
I ended up here
But you know I'm home on the next train

I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open
I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open

I hope I'm ready
Others died that tried this before me
The pressure's heavy
Feels like everything is riding on me
My only fear is that I'll fail and we'll be gone tomorrow
So I'm honored I was chosen by the older prophets
So close my closet got no time to clean it out
The ears are open when I'm speaking
A reason for the crown
The queen is like a mirror
She can reach into the clouds
Pull me down from heaven
Hear me when you play me thru the speakers loud.

I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open
I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open

The only one
I wasn't entered in a contest
Hand selected
Well perfected with a conscious
The god complex
I was born with that
The soul of Assyria
We ain't even on the map
The reason for the rap
Just to reach the people around the world and back
Disappearing act
This is where its at
And this is real
You can take the power back
They sent me here to tell you this
But soon
They gonna want me back

King David

I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open
I don't know why I've got to be this way
I don't know why I've got to save the day
I know that I was chose
But every night when my eyes close
I hope I'm alive when they open
