[Verse] Born in the shadow of my own spine A trembling leaf on a forest line My roar was loud but my heart was thin A lion outside A mouse within [Prechorus] Then I had to face my terror. A quest would change me forever. [Chorus] Say hello to the Cowardly Lion I’ve shed the skin of my old cryin’ Faced the beasts Faced the sky Trembled but I didn’t die I’m the King of Beasts I’m born to be A coward no more Look at me [Verse 2] In the Witch flew and my knees gave way But I stood tall I couldn’t sway The Kalidahs roared Teeth like swords I found afraid was just a word [Prechorus] A sip of courage A leap of faith The Wizard's brew Released my fate [Chorus] Say hello to the Cowardly Lion I’ve shed the skin of my old cryin’ Faced the beasts Faced the sky Trembled but I didn’t die I’m the King of Beasts I’m born to be A coward no more Look at me [Spoken Harshly] You need fear your enemy No longer
