Title You Can’t Kill The King Verse 1 Every time the lights come on, they try to turn them black. Every time the world moves on, they drag the story back. When the people sing his name, they sharpen every lie. But Michael’s fire keeps burning, it doesn’t fade or die. Pre-Chorus They sell the fear, they twist the truth. They chase the ghost of his golden youth. But we still hear the sound he made. A million hearts will not be played. Chorus You can’t kill the King, you can’t tear him down. Michael lives forever, he still wears the crown. Every time he rises, you drag him through the fire. But the harder that you hate him, the higher he rises. You can’t kill the King, no, you can’t kill the King. Verse 2 Another screen, another headline, another storm begins. Another trial in the spotlight, another game to win. When Michael’s name gets louder, when the world begins to cheer, suddenly the vultures gather, feeding off the fear. Pre-Chorus They sell the pain, they use the name. They light the match and blame the flame. But we still stand, we still believe. Some truths are bigger than what they weave. Chorus You can’t kill the King, you can’t tear him down. Michael lives forever, he still wears the crown. Every time he rises, you drag him through the fire. But the harder that you hate him, the higher he rises. You can’t kill the King, no, you can’t kill the King. Bridge Say what you want, sell what you can. Build your machine against one man. But millions know, and millions sing. You can bury the story, but not the King. Breakdown You wanted silence, you got a storm. You wanted ashes, a star was born. You wanted darkness, he brought the light. Now Michael’s name cuts through the night. Final Chorus You can’t kill the King, you can’t tear him down. Michael lives forever, he still wears the crown. Every time he rises, you drag him through the fire. But the harder that you hate him, the higher he rises. You can’t kill the King, no, you can’t kill the King. Outro The stage is empty, but the world still sings. You can bury the man, but you can’t kill the King.
