Kingdom of One
Maren Morris Lyrics

First light, a sacrifice
The beginning of a new day is often accompanied by sacrifices to start fresh.

Bird's eye, saw the signs
Taking a step back and looking at the bigger picture can often reveal clues to what lies ahead.

Cold nights will take your life
Harsh realities can eventually catch up to us and leave us feeling drained and helpless.

Reach out and touch your faith
Believing in something beyond ourselves can provide comfort and stability during difficult times.

Give up on everything
Sometimes we need to let go of everything we once knew in order to start anew.

To carry the world on a string
It can feel like the weight of the world is on our shoulders, but we must keep pushing forward regardless.

All you can give, all you can beg
We can only give what we have, even if it feels like we have nothing left. Sometimes, all we can do is beg for help.

All that you longed for, nothing compares
Even if we achieve everything we once longed for, it may not bring the happiness and fulfillment we thought it would.

When nothin' is sacred, no one is safe
In a world where nothing seems to hold value or meaning, no one is immune to the negative consequences of their actions.

So you wanna play God? Come on
Thinking we have complete control over our lives and the lives of others is a dangerous mindset to have.

Is that all you got? Come on
Believing we have all the answers and solutions is limiting and can lead to our downfall.

Would you sell your soul? Burn it all
Trading our morals and values for temporary gain can have devastating consequences in the long run.

Everything that you love
The people, experiences, and things we hold dear to us can easily be lost if we're not careful.

Finally become second to none
Putting ourselves above all others can lead to a life of isolation and pain.

In a kingdom of one
Living life selfishly and only for ourselves can result in a lonely, unfulfilling existence.

Dig down, far below
Sometimes we need to dig deep within ourselves to find the strength and courage to keep going.

Lost souls, feed the crows
Those who have lost their way in life can often be taken advantage of and left to suffer the consequences.

Hell's fire keeps you warm
Engaging in destructive behaviors may provide a temporary sense of warmth or comfort, but ultimately leads to our demise.

Look to your heart, but nothin' is there
Even if we try to follow our hearts, it may not always lead us in the right direction. Sometimes, we are left feeling lost and empty inside.

Ash to ash, dust to dust
Everything we once knew and cared for will eventually return to the earth.

Everything in God above
If we believe in a higher power, then we must trust that everything will eventually fall into place according to a plan beyond our understanding.

Shed a tear, shed your blood
Tragedies and hardships in life can lead to physical and emotional pain.

No, you cannot give enough
Even if we try to give everything we have, it may not be enough to overcome certain obstacles or challenges in life.
