The Lion King
Mickey Cho Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody come testify
Come up in the spot looking extra fly
Let the world go question why
There's a fire in our hearts no flame could try
I'm young simba, prince of my dad's kingdom
Reigning over evil, death can't even sting us
Born in a jungle, never knew who the King was
Till I realized He's my father, I'm kin of
There's a peace so deep in us embedded
And even when the storms of life come, we let it
The enemy's attacks are weak and so pathetic
I got the key to victory, you know I get it
I'm tryna wake the world from sleep, the apathetic
And let them meet the King of kings, I am prophetically
Declaring all the world to see He is the medic
That cures all disease with ease, no anesthetics and I
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King
And you know that I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
And I'm-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
And I-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
And I-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
Welcome to the darkness, welcome to the jungle
Strong sides clash and get caught up in the rumble
Welcome to the war zone, watch it all crumble
Oh, how the mighty even kneel and are humbled
Clash of the titans, God and the devil
Is it even fair? No, we on another level
We already won, we just let the dust settle
Courage on the rise, now I'm feeling like I'm Nevel
Longbottom, I'm so high I'ma hover
Over every storm, I'ma fly right above her
I got an aching in my heart like a lover
Looking in his heart, so much to discover
I could spend a lifetime, yes, and every moment
I would still find yet another component
Of his heart, He's the lion of the tribe of judah
And I'm grafted in His line, divinely I'm alive in Him
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King)
And you know that I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
And I-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
And I-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
And I-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
Everybody come testify
Come up in the spot looking extra fly
Let the world go question why
There's a fire in our hearts no flame could try
From now, till the day I die
My life isn't mine, it belongs to Christ
And forget if I could I touch the sky
I got Heaven in my Spirit and I'm blessed, I'm a lion
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King, King)
(Aye)I got the heart of a lion
I got the heart of my King(King)
And you know that I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in, finna put it in
For the Kingdom
And I-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in

And I-I'm finna put it in
Finna put it in, finna put it in

I'm re-watching this review because I've just remembered this toy existed and I wanted to assure myself I wasn't imagining it.

For those that want a metric height for these, there are 2.54 centimeters per inch. Thanks for the review.

seems pretty good, compared to most of the sentai mecha toys this king robo has more articulation and the design is pretty cool. Pretty impressive that the individual mechas have articulation as well, but if they made individual weapons that combined that'd probably be better. It seems like a possible Gokaiger/Micky Mouse crossover movie or something.

This set looks really cool but I'll doubt I can find it at store for a good price.
