[Verse 1] Scouter cracks I’m still standing Dust on my armor Same old scene Your back’s ahead of me again Blue sky Broken ground between Blood in my gloves I start laughing Pain tastes like promise on my tongue Every defeat just keeps asking “How bad do you want to overcome?” [Chorus] I’m the prince of second place (hey!) Chasing you right through the flames Always one step from your shadow That’s the fuel inside my veins If I’m always breathing hard Just behind your blinding light Then I’ll turn this wounded pride To the sharpest edge in the fight Prince of second place I’ll be first to never die [Verse 2] You look up Smiling at the sky Like it was easy all along I clench my teeth Crack through my limit Turn my anger into song Throne made of shattered expectations Crown made of scars on my skin Royalty means nothing here If I surrender what’s within [Chorus] I’m the prince of second place (yeah!) Chasing you right through the flames Always one step from your shadow That’s the fuel inside my veins If I’m always breathing hard Just behind your blinding light Then I’ll turn this wounded pride To the sharpest edge in the fight Prince of second place I’ll be first to never die [Bridge] Let the galaxy keep laughing (come on) Let them carve my name in doubt Every time I fall behind you Is another time I crawl back out I was born to sit above them But I’d rather claw my way From the dirt From the hurt Till my heartbeat blows this cage away [Chorus] I’m the prince of second place Chasing you right through the flames Always one step from your shadow That’s the fuel inside my veins If I’m always breathing hard Just behind your blinding light Then I’ll turn this wounded pride To the sharpest edge in the fight Prince of second place I’m the last who’ll ever Break Bow Run Or hide Prince of second place Super warrior of my pride
