King of Everything Lyrics
I am the king of everything
and I do as I please
I walk on clouds before the crowds
and bring them to their knees
A child of Heaven and of Earth
The one and only son
My staff in hand I rule the land
I've only just begun
I'm walking on the sky For all to see
I know the secret of eternity
Make all the devils cry and angels sing
Because I am the king of everything
Bring on your armies and your gods
I'll kill them one by one
It's all a game and just the same
I'm only having fun
Behind a water curtain
sitting on my mighty throne
a child of Heaven and of Earth
The great sage born of stone
I'm walking on the sky For all to see
I know the secret of eternity
Make all the devils cry and angels sing
Because I am the king of everything
The lord of all that I survey
I walk the road, but not the Way
I'll tear the sky and mountains down
My only weakness is my crown
I am the king of everything
As strong as I am proud
With staff in hand I rule the land
atop a mighty cloud
I am divine, revealed in time
Immortal and eternal
The wrath of God, they all applaud
my fire-eyed inferno
I'm walking on the sky For all to see
I know the secret of eternity
Make all the devils cry and angels sing
Because I am the king of everything
and I do as I please
I walk on clouds before the crowds
and bring them to their knees
A child of Heaven and of Earth
The one and only son
My staff in hand I rule the land
I've only just begun
I know the secret of eternity
Make all the devils cry and angels sing
Because I am the king of everything
I'll kill them one by one
It's all a game and just the same
I'm only having fun
Behind a water curtain
sitting on my mighty throne
a child of Heaven and of Earth
The great sage born of stone
I know the secret of eternity
Make all the devils cry and angels sing
Because I am the king of everything
I walk the road, but not the Way
I'll tear the sky and mountains down
My only weakness is my crown
As strong as I am proud
With staff in hand I rule the land
atop a mighty cloud
I am divine, revealed in time
Immortal and eternal
The wrath of God, they all applaud
my fire-eyed inferno
I know the secret of eternity
Make all the devils cry and angels sing
Because I am the king of everything

Okay i guess i get to be the first commemnt here. My opinion is the song is about how rulers usually end up corrupted by their power and then start seeing themselves as gods or the gods chosen instrument. The former seems especially true for those who are fanatical about their faith.
It's about Sun Wukong (The Monkey King) of chinese mythology who, and as the lyrics say, was born from a stone, learned how to walk on clouds and stole the secret of immortality. After being trapped in the Bhudda's palm his eyes became flaming infernos which allowed him to see evil. Seems like a wierd subject to write a song about but anarchy club seems to like doing just that. Guess all songs don't have to be to serious.
Sounds like his talking about Jesus in this song
