Othersproof - The Heir

The heir to the throne
His hair tangled in his crown
The heir to the throne
Not just anybody's son
The heir to the throne
The most powerful of pawns

It took the whole village to restrain her
It took all of the bishop's will to pray for her
It took all of the cop shop to detain her
It took her a whole night to kill the king

Unbeknownst to the heir
The others - the others were ordered not to interfere
The others were ordered not to interfere just yet

An identity he has repressed
But his power must - must not be suppressed
Must not be suppressed
He whispers, he whispers, as he prepares to attest

I don't recognize your authority
I don't recognize your authority
I don't recognize your authority

I don't recognize your authority
I'm the ruler of my own democracy
I've always prioritized my king's city
I'm the author of my own fantasy

With a lawless, lawless jury to satisfy
The heir was brought, was brought to testify

Heir to the land
From every branch to every plant
From the laws of nature to the laws of science
From the laws of the realm to the laws of Man

The heir to the throne
Preparing to stand trial
The heir to the throne
Not just anybody's son
The heir to the throne
His ruling has to be put on hold

The whole village came down to bear witness
The whole clergy came down in order to judge
But no matter what he'll never confess
And thus the heir's crimes will never surge

Unbeknownst to the heir
The others - the others were ordered not to interfere
The others were ordered not to interfere just yet

An identity he has repressed
But his power must - must not be suppressed
Must not be suppressed
He whispers, he whispers, as he prepares to attest

I don't recognize your authority
I don't recognize your authority
I don't recognize your authority

I don't recognize your authority
I'm the ruler of my own democracy
I've always prioritized my king's city
I'm the author of my own fantasy

With a lawless, lawless jury to satisfy
The heir was brought, was brought to testify

Heir to the land
From every branch to every plant
From first to second class citizens
From unpunished guilt to blamed innocence
