Description I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing,
"Now the old king is dead!
Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh, who would ever wanna be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Original hereΒ youtu.be/dvgZkm1xWP . So I've been wanting to draw this for a while now. This is probably one of my most shittyest drawings yet, because of the damn background . I really happen to like this song, since I listen to it a lot I thought this song really fits Zira. Because in my TLK story Zira was once the queen of the pride lands. And she lost a lot in her life. The lions/ghosts above her are supposed to be Scar and Zira's mothers ghosts (Zira's mother still has no name -_-. Come on guys just suggest names already.). The background is very shitty since the marker I was using wasn't meant for pictures like this, and that's what makes it shitty. However I can't get on watercolor paper at the moment, since were at my uncles house still. I also didn't bring my watercolors either.

If you still don't have a name for the mother, may I suggest Mbaya (rough), Kiburi (pride) and Maisha (life)? Also, b-e-a-utiful picture!
