Avalon Lyrics
[Verse 1: Professor Green]
It's time to even it up
I guess a round table weren't equal enough
You can't contain me with chains, I'm free and I run free
Any enemy is coming with me when I'm done
Whatever's asked of me I've performed
I rid through the rain into the eye of the storm
Still carrying the flame, I've the torch
Failure comes at a price I can't afford
Never been half-hearted, I put my all in
Forfeited all just to answer my calling
Wearing the scars of the wars that I fought in
Should've been heading for the stars but I'm falling
[Pre-Hook: Sierra Kusterbeck]
I have your sword and cape
If you need them, I'll be swimming in the lake
Oh baby, don't look down
Just take the crown
[Hook: Sierra Kusterbeck]
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
It's time to even it up
I guess a round table weren't equal enough
You can't contain me with chains, I'm free and I run free
Any enemy is coming with me when I'm done
Whatever's asked of me I've performed
I rid through the rain into the eye of the storm
Still carrying the flame, I've the torch
Failure comes at a price I can't afford
Never been half-hearted, I put my all in
Forfeited all just to answer my calling
Wearing the scars of the wars that I fought in
Should've been heading for the stars but I'm falling
[Pre-Hook: Sierra Kusterbeck]
I have your sword and cape
If you need them, I'll be swimming in the lake
Oh baby, don't look down
Just take the crown
[Hook: Sierra Kusterbeck]
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
[Verse 2: Professor Green]
Fought till I had no fight left, risked my death
Walked with conviction in everyone of my steps
My strengths water enough, to wash away any of the stains on my rep
Yeah, I fought off vultures, when against odds when I was short on soldiers
I asked not for my burden to be lightened but if I may have broader shoulders
So as I may carry the weight
All the doubt I had in me has been allayed
So from now till the day that I'm carried away
I will never walk around what stands in my way
Fuck if they ain't letting up, because neither will I
When I die from the ashes an eagle will rise
As long as my blade and my faith will keep me alive
Fear ain't something that you'll see in my eyes
[Hook: Sierra Kusterbeck]
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
[Verse 3: Professor Green]
I left competition out for the count, no abacus
Fought for the crown, thwart thy challengers
When my massacre was ordained I remained
And through pain forged my sword
I left competition out for the count, no abacus
Fought for the crown, thwart thy challengers
When my massacre was ordained I remained
And through pain forged my sword
My Excalibur
Fought till I had no fight left, risked my death
Walked with conviction in everyone of my steps
My strengths water enough, to wash away any of the stains on my rep
Yeah, I fought off vultures, when against odds when I was short on soldiers
I asked not for my burden to be lightened but if I may have broader shoulders
So as I may carry the weight
All the doubt I had in me has been allayed
So from now till the day that I'm carried away
I will never walk around what stands in my way
Fuck if they ain't letting up, because neither will I
When I die from the ashes an eagle will rise
As long as my blade and my faith will keep me alive
Fear ain't something that you'll see in my eyes
[Hook: Sierra Kusterbeck]
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
[Verse 3: Professor Green]
I left competition out for the count, no abacus
Fought for the crown, thwart thy challengers
When my massacre was ordained I remained
And through pain forged my sword
I left competition out for the count, no abacus
Fought for the crown, thwart thy challengers
When my massacre was ordained I remained
And through pain forged my sword
My Excalibur
[Hook: Sierra Kusterbeck]
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone...
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
We ran to Avalon
We ran to Avalon
[Outro: Professor Green]
You know it's been said that
The damaged become dangerous because
We know we can survive
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone...
We'll be kings forever, ooh-whoa
Holding on together, ooh-whoa
Feeling so much better, ooh-whoa
When everything was wrong, and everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
We ran to Avalon
We ran to Avalon
[Outro: Professor Green]
You know it's been said that
The damaged become dangerous because
We know we can survive
