Title: This Is My King Artist: DJ Z3FĀ Composer: Joseph.T Lyricist: Joseph.T Lyrics: [Verse 1] Morning rooster screaming Same dirt road Same old crowd Dust on the table Head hanging Heart worn out I walked past the temple gate Didn’t look up Just looked down Prayed to a sky that felt empty No answer No voice No sound [Pre-Chorus] Then I heard crying and shouting Like the world holding its breath Turned a corner on that hillside Saw a man stagger to death [Chorus] He dropped His cross in front of me Dust in His hair Blood on His cheek Crown made of thorns Tearing His skin And every part of me said This is a King I ran to His side My hands shook in fear Shoulder to shoulder The weight drawing near We lifted the wood through my doubt and my sin And I knew in that moment This is a King [Verse 2] His eyes caught mine for a second So tired Yet somehow kind No anger Only the mercy I’d been chasing all my life My knees almost folded Under the weight of what He bore Not just the timber But all that I’d done before [Pre-Chorus] Crowds were cursing and laughing But His gaze never left mine Every step felt like confession Every stumble Every stride [Chorus] He dropped His cross in front of me Dust in His hair Blood on His cheek Crown made of thorns Tearing His skin And every part of me said This is a King I ran to His side My hands shook in fear Shoulder to shoulder The weight drawing near We lifted the wood through my doubt and my sin And I knew in that moment This is a King [Bridge] I came with my worry My working My pride He carried a burden that should have been mine I thought I was helping a stranger in pain But there on that road He was lifting my shame [Chorus] He dropped His cross in front of me Dust in His hair Blood on His cheek Crown made of thorns Tearing His skin Every heartbeat screaming This is a King So I’ll live at His side Through the joy Through the fear Shoulder to shoulder His presence so near I’ll carry my cross For the love I’ve seen ’Cause I know and forever This is my King Oh This is my King
