Don't tell me the fire's dying
I need one more shot 'fore I turn it in
I still feel like a lion
Though my claws worn down and they're paper-thin
'Cause none of what they say to me
Is words that I say too
But I will be a lion for you
I will be a lion
For you

I wanna be a lion
Ah

I used to rule the kingdom of flashing lights
Sit on my throne and listen to the roars of my pride
Oh, is this how it ends, how it ends now?
Oh, a story of what could have been

Don't tell me the fire's dying
I need one more shot 'fore I turn it in (turn it in)
I still feel like a lion
Though my claws worn down and they're paper-thin
'Cause none of what they say to me (say to me)
Is words that I say too (say too)
But I will be a lion for you
I will be a lion
For you

(For you, I will be a lion)

Ah, I will be a lion
Ah
Say it with me
Oh yeah
I will be a lion

Say it with me, say it with me
I will be a lion
I will be a lion
