Alicia Keys - Not Even the King lyrics

[Alicia Keys - Not Even the King lyrics]

Money some people so poor all that
They've got is money oh, and diamonds
Some people waste their life
Counting their thousands

I don't care what they're offering
How much gold they bring
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king

Oh, castles
Some people so lonely what good is a castle?
Surrounded by people
But ain't got a friend that's
Not on the payroll

Oh, and I don't care what they bring
They can have everything
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king

All the king's horses and all the king's men
Came charging to get what we got
They offered the crown and
The offered the throne
I already got all that I want
All the king's horses and all the king's men
They came marching through
They offered the world just to
Have what we got
But I found the world in you
I found the world in you

So darling, listen:
Your arms around me worth more than a kingdom
Yeah, believe that
The trust that we feel the
Kings never felt that
Yeah, this is the song that we sing
We don't need anything
They can't afford this this is priceless
Can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
Can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
