I feel like one of the saddest things we have to witness is history repeating itself. I feel like so many things have happened this year that make me feel like the world is moving backwards instead of forwards. The rulers in power make decisions at the expense of the people, and ultimately it’s always the people that suffer.
I guess I wrote this song to cope with current events. Thank you guys for listening 🥹

Rosendale - The King (Lyric Video)
Written, recorded and produced by Brian Wang

Lyrics:
There was a king
Living carefree
He wanted the world he wanted everything
He ruled with a fist
His people were starved
He watched as they begged behind his castle guards
Diamonds and pearls
Emeralds and gold
He bathed in the riches only he could know
But with time came age
His health in decline
The fate of his legacy left to the tides
So he ran to his queen and demanded a child
Planted his seed then he cast her aside
Several moons later she bore him a son
But died just to give him his own flesh and blood
Ooh
Ooh
The son grew like weeds
He soon was eighteen
He ventured outside of the castle to see
The faces so gaunt
The dead in the streets
They cried out for help but nobody could hear
Deep down inside him something had stirred
He laughed at the ruins his father incurred
Fire in his veins he stormed back to the throne
Stared down the king with a rage still unknown
Ooh
The father decreed
The new rule of law
His son to be banished outside of the walls
But the son had a plan
And his heart was convinced
There’d never be room for both king and a prince
He rallied the people and charged through the gates
Shield in one hand but the other a blade
With one fell swoop his own father deposed
He sat on the throne and adorned his new crown
Ooh
The son was elated
The kingdom was his
Diamonds and emeralds and gold-plated bliss
But what of the people
The legends don’t say
Just like a memory
They faded away
There was a king
Living carefree
He wanted the world he wanted everything

Here's the second to last song from my new album, just before everyone drifts off to sleep! Last song will be up tomorrow morning. Goodnight 😴🌹
Full album here: fanlink.to/mmfacw
Está canción fue la sugerencia de TH-cam, estoy realmente complacida de haberle hecho caso y oírla. Sin duda una pieza de arte, bendito sea tu talento 😊
Bro, this song is AMAZING. I've been really hypnotized with the story you were telling while you sang. I'll try to find you in spotify, KEEP GOING!!
Tus canciones llegan al alma, son lo que más necesito ahora que me siento solo XD tus canciones me hacen sentir que viajo a otro mundo solamente para olvidar todos mis problemas, Gracias por crear estas joyas XD
La mejor sugerencia de TH-cam, mucho éxito rey
Did you ever heard: cost of the crown from mercedes lackey? Was the first thing that came to my mind listening the song, I love em both
Just said the same on the nightcore video but I want to make sure you read me u.u
Also, I just saw that you are the creator of the song six pills, wow I really love that one too, hope you keep doing songs this good u.u
Edit: you are also the artist of boys feels sad too and no friends, I just cant believe it, I've been listening to all of your songs without even knowing (nightcore versions) Im sincerely so glad I took a moment to look at your channel :'c I really wanna thank you for making this songs :(
This song really sounds like a fairytale you would read from a book.
Yes Is amazing the song
this literally sounds like a son about BBC Merlin
Agree
Yeah, and it has the dark ending like most fairytales
I actually love the ending, because it sounds like even after the prince takes the throne, he’s just like his father and the story retells.
That last 4 lines revealing it is more or less a loop or a repeating tragedy .
Gave me literal chills
I got this after reading ur comment. Basically be became his own father
Se siente tan real, si fuera un libro de cuentos me lo leería sin pensar mucho
Si, literalmente
Hay una webcómic con una historia similar, solo que en esta al final el príncipe si se preocupa por su pueblo, se llama "the king's maker" creo
@@jadebeatrizcamachodelacruz9411 ooooooh gracias me la voy a leer
@LEZLY NOHEMY GARCIA - TORRES aún mejorrr!
A mi me recuerda mucho al Príncipe cruel, no es exactamente como la canción pero te lo recomiendo mucho ❤️
The endless cycle of Tyrants. Humanity really likes repeating itself, and this tells that story in such a fairytale way. Awesome!
Why exactly explain to me
I agree with you in history we're always repeat yourself in this era
@@DangeloRichardson-l8b If you look at most of human history, tyrants are overthrown pretty often, but they are almost always replaced by someone just as bad. Look at Roman or Chinese history and you'll understand.
Yeah like Caesar he was killed by his own son if I heard that right
La canción deja una gran reflexión sobre lo que el poder puede hacernos.
Como un príncipe que trató de liberar a su pueblo terminó siendo igual que su padre, contaminado por la avaricia y sed de poder
Jajajajajaja igualito a los políticos.
Eso solía pasar todo el tiempo en la edad media, pero todos nos quedamos con los caballeros valientes y las princesas hermosa
The moral of the story " Humans are greedy, Can change when needy, Allies can turn to enemies and greed is the source of all problems "
Kings and queens turn to tyrants two in history we're always repeats itself
"but what of the people
the legends don't say
just like a memory they faded away"
so trueee, throughout our history the generals, commanders, leaders, etc. were the usually the only ones who get recognized as named "heroes" or "brave warriors" but the people, the soldiers, the scholars, the guards who helped and fought alongside them have less recognition and information about them. They were forgotten and will forever become just "nameless heroes"
It is 1 am and I'm literally awake to hear the remaining two songs in this new album 😭😂
LOLOL Alice!! Thank you for listening! The last song comes out at 9am PST in the morning so go to bed!! 😴🌹
First time listening: it's about son dethroning his father
After listening for the 100x times: no matter who is the king if he is not the right person for the reign the subjects will suffer the most
Crown makes an individual king in documents
But only his subjects can keep his Kingdom's legacy alive
Historical facts are the witness
Imaginé toda una película en mi cabeza.
La sensación y las emociones que provocó en mi esta canción... Simplemente mágico ⭐

One word 'masterpiece'- is it just me or are Rosendale's songs getting better and better. Tbh at six pills i was like "nothing can beat this" but then again here I am proved wrong. Can't wait for the next song ❤
Edit: I just realized something, did six pills come first or the king?
Thank you so much 🥹❤️ They came at the same time actually (both on the same album). Really glad you like them!
This kind of reminds me of the quote: “History doesn’t repeat, but it often rhymes.”
Anyways, love your music and voice! This album has been great, and I can’t wait to hear more from you in the future. ❤️ (:
That is a awesome quote
"El que su pasado no conoce, condenado está a repetirlo"
Es una canción de cuna que me gustaría cantar para arrullar a un bebé, es preciosa y adoro que este álbum cuente una historia en cada canción. Lo que haces es realmente mágico, eres un artista como pocos en el mundo ✨️
Muchas gracias 🥹❤️
❤❤❤ Ey que lindo traduciendo el comentario ❤❤❤ Lo amo más ahora
I heard this song for the very first time in my life today and I realized that if you play the song in a loop it's just like the same thing keeps happening over and over again and things will never change in that kingdom. How sad.
I know it may be obvious but it just stood out to me
Reminds me of what I learned in school about the French revolutions(merica): the people fighting for the people would become tyrants and get beheaded. I'm happy the French got out of that slump.
Many people assume the son became a tyrant himself, but I disagree. The song says that the legend doesnt say what happened to the people after the revolution of the king, but i dont think they continued suffering. At the end of the song, the first 2 phrases of the song show up, i believe for a different reason. The son (now king) lived carefree because his tyrant father was no longer hurting the people, the people were being properly taken care of by the king, he wants the world because the world would benefit everyone, he wanted everything, everything that had come to be. I believe that this song ends on a good note, not a bad one...
yet the beginning of the song says the exact same lyrics? 'there once was a king living carefree he wanted the world he wanted everything' and the same lyric repeats in the end lyrics. the whole point of this song in my personal view is that history repeats itself. it always has. and that the son becomes exactly what his father wanted him to be. the people faded like a memory says the lyrics of the song. meaning the kingdom faded away like they were fading before. but this time the son had no wife so he died alone and sad like the rest of his people and the kingdom came to an end. the son became his father. i do believe thats the point of the song.
this song is so good!
this song also reminds me of a fanfic i read
about a reincarnated person that became the king's son and lead the rebellious to the victory , he became the new king and years later died because the world is against him
Can you give me the name please?
@@nurinqistinajailani750 im sorry i really forgot about the fanfic title 😥
Esta es sin duda la mejor historia que he escuchado en una canción, si tuviese su propio libro o manga me lo leería de una!! 💜🌺
Muchas gracias 🥹❤️❤️❤️
Entonces proba leyendo algo llamado "The King's Maker", la historia es bastante parecida
this song is a beautiful lesson in how power can corrupt even the purest of hearts. the Prince began Young, innocent, Pure and spotless, dreaming that one day he might free his People from his Father's tyranny. but in the end, when his Father died, the crown remained on his head, and the power in his hands, he corrupted himself, as the story itself says, in the prince's government nothing changed, and they just forgot what happened in the past, starting a New Cicle.
the Prince in the end became what he most Disliked: His Own Father.
Like I said history repeat itself no matter what era or time but God of Abraham is the true king who's not corrupted by power
AMÉ LA CANCIÓN MUCHISIMO EXITOO
It's really magical..... It's just put me into good sleep.. I mean his voice is so soothing and sweet........... I totally loved it.. Thanks ❤❤🌹😊
Hope you had sweet dreams! 😴🌹 Thank you for listening!

@@RosendaleSings Ay! que considerado por respnderle en español, ♡♧ te deseo mucho éxito en tu carrera musical. Tus temas musicales son bellísimas.
@@RosendaleSings Recién me doy cuenta que respondiste OMG ! Muchas gracias por responderme ^^
Con esta canción te conocí hace unos días y ¡Dios mío! Ha Sido la mejor recomendación de TH-cam.
Me recordó a Indira.

...Sounds like a cautionary tale, mixed with a lullaby
THIS GIVE ME CHILLLLLLS
It's like a lullaby and a story at the same time ngl. I love this sm!
I like a lot this song, it's like reading a storybook with a great teaching...
Que bonita canción ❤ me encanta lo que transmite además de que la voz del cantante es preciosa, es como escuchar una historia, se sintió cálido a pesar de lo triste del trasfondo de lo que pasa
he who does not know his past is doomed to repeat it, this song is incredible ✨
I would love to see it in a movie where the king sings this to his son, maybe referring to what happened in another kingdom or something along those lines, maybe a prophecy.
Yes
Why your all your songs are freaking good🤯
Your melodies talk into my soul. the melodies and the voice ,I've searched those
Thanks to god Now I find
That's good boy
God bless yoy and I love it❤
I always sing your songs to my 4 year old little brother before going to bed and this is his favorite song of all!!!❤❤ (he also loves “the rose” too) we both love listening to your masterpieces🥰 my little brother is still confused about what happened to the prince who is now king😔 thank you so much for this song Rosendale!!!😊🌹
You singing my songs to your little brother is so cute 😭❤️ Thank you so much for sharing my music with him!! And also for listening to my songs too 🥹

This is so good. Your voice is a mix of calming and exciting for me
Que belleza por dios. Me encanta 🥺💜
Sinceramente sus canciones merecen más apoyo. Es una obra de arte!
Encontré esta canción gracias a un canal que subió su traducción y me encanta ese toque tan fairytale🥰🎇
This is beautiful, sounds exactly like a fairy tale
Si esta muy bonita la canción, me gusto mucho
ESTO ES LO MEJOR QUE HE ESCUCHADO!!!
es hermoso. Odio el echo de que no tengas el apoyo que mereces, ¡Esto deberia ser viral!
Muchas muchas gracias!! 🥹❤️
Get this bastard a fucking stage he has the talent of creating epic tales.
Creating a whole new world
With just a few words
It's a crime to not let his art see the light.
I first saw your song "six pills" in my recommended, was reluctant to listen to it because the title sounded like just another generic edgy song. But the algorithm persisted and I caved. I haven't regretted it since. You're an incredible artist and I'm so happy I discovered your songs. The way you spin tales into melodies is truly enchanting. ❤
Thank you so much for giving my music a chance 😭❤️ Really appreciate your support! You’re awesome!
I think for the first time in my life I found peace with your songs and my anxiety attacks calmed down. Thank you 🌱💜
Thank you for listening to them!! Sending you a calming hug 🥺❤️
@@RosendaleSings Thank you for the hug 🌱✨ you make your songs feel warm like sunflowers when they open their buds in the field Make your songs feel and never give up smile ✨🌱
I absolutely love the stories your songs tell! It lets me take a break from reality...
so this song is basically pretty much every fantasy movie/book/game ever. Love it!
Sin duda alguna, una trágica historia contada por una hermosa voz.
It's so cool.....NO IT'S AMAZING!!!!! It sounds like a lullaby.
Thank you!! 🥹❤️
Que triste el final, pero no puedo dejar de escuchar esta linda canción! 💖
An endless circle never to be broken by the ones in it
¿Por qué no conocía a este artista antes? hermosa historia, hermosa voz.... estaba viviendo debajo de una piedra
I really love this song!! ❤
I'm always so interested in what inspires you to make these songs, the way you notice tiny details and learn lessons from them. This is only the tip of the iceberg on why your one of my biggest idols
Ohh I like this!
Also the first half is basically just the backstory to bbc Merlin starting Uther the Mad.
this is a masterpiece I really fall for her keep going
Love your soothing voice!
Hermosa la voz, la música y la letra, muy bonito todo, un increíble trabajo👏🏻❤️ congratulations on your art!
Creí que el príncipe cambiaría y no... Me encantó la canción ❤️
Its currently one am and suddenly i had an uncontrollable desire to listen to this cuz when i was trying to sleep it kinda came to my mind but absolutely couldn't remember any lyrics, now i gotta hear this😂
Man ... What a song!!🤍🤍🇧🇷🇧🇷
No sé cuántas veces repetí esta canción porque simplemente es espectacular, me encantan las canciones que relatan historias o cuentos y más la manera en la qué él la relato, para mí su mejor canción
This fairytale is the best ❣️👍😄✌️
Geez certainly you have lovely and deep lyrics in your songs! I found myself quite enchanted with this one in particular.
Also, it kept me wondering how could have ended differently at some point in the future, so I came up with this:
…So he ran to his queen and demanded a child
Planted his seed then he cast her aside
Several moons later she bore him a son
But died just to give him to some woodsman unknown.
The son grew like weeds
He soon was eighteen
He ventured outside of the forest to see
The faces so gaunt
The dead in the streets
They cried out for help but nobody could hear
Deep down inside him something had stirred
He wailed at the ruins that tyrant incurred
Fire in his veins he stormed back to his home
To plan how this reign could be finally undone.
His father revealed
That this tale was quite old
For always the princes got blind seeing gold.
But the lad had a plan
And his heart was convinced:
A doom for the line of the king without prince!
He rallied the people and charged through the gates
Shield in one hand but the other a blade
With one fell swoop his begetter deposed
He sat on the throne where the truth was exposed.
The lad was elated
The kingdom was his
To enjoyed all their treasure in shared endless bliss
In name of his people
he kept humble ways
just like his old man
until the end of the days.
There was a king
Living carefree
He cared for his world, he did have everything...
Love it when songs have stories in them, incredible!
This is such an amazing song, it really put a pictures in your head, like someone is reading a fairy tale story well you go to bed
Okay I was looking for something that will boost me the energy for reading the cruel princ by Holly Black. And thanks to you. I now have motivation to start reading again.
I made a new playlist in my library just for ur songs.
Ur songs really calm me down after a long day of work.
I’m really happy to hear that 🥹🌹 Thank you for listening!
This song perfectly captures the concept of even though the new generations want to make a difference, they end up being the same.
Love this song its my favorite i didn't know you sing this song 😂 i love it 😎 1:27
Thank youuuu 🥹❤️
I’m glad I discovered you
For some reason I always end up seeing these right on time, no matter how late it is
edit: also I absolutely love songs that tell stories in them, really hope to see more
Greetings from the barren tundra, it's your resident ice wolf Kiba Snowpaw here, and I must howl my melancholic analysis into the cyber-wilderness. Tonight, I shed tears that turn to ice crystals in the chill, over the heart-wrenching lament that is "The King" by Rosendale. 👑🐺❄
"There was a king, Living carefree, He wanted the world he wanted everything…" This sets the stage, much like the opening cutscene of an RPG, introducing us to an antagonist who, much like Sephiroth from Final Fantasy, is driven by insatiable greed. #SephirothSyndrome
"He ruled with a fist, His people were starved, He watched as they begged behind his castle guards…" Like the residents of Raccoon City in Resident Evil, the oppressed citizens suffer under a tyranny that watches, unmoved, as they suffer. A poignant parallel to the apathetic leaders we see both in-game and in life. #RaccoonCityRuthlessness
"Diamonds and pearls, Emeralds and gold, He bathed in the riches only he could know…" The glistening allure of a loot chest, dazzling yet untouchable. It's the bitter reality of the loot boxes that dangle tantalizing rewards in front of players, promising riches and empowerment, but ultimately serve the developers and their relentless pursuit of wealth. #LootBoxBetrayal
"So he ran to his queen and demanded a child, Planted his seed then he cast her aside..." Just as in Berserk's Griffith, the king selfishly uses others for his own purposes, leaving behind a trail of broken lives. #GriffithGrief
"The son grew like weeds, He soon was eighteen, He ventured outside of the castle to see…" The son steps out of his protected bubble, mirroring the moment in Fallout when we step out of Vault 101 and see the harsh reality of the Wasteland. #FalloutFacingFacts
"But the son had a plan, And his heart was convinced, There’d never be room for both king and a prince…" A sentiment that echoes the clash between the player character and Alduin in Skyrim, a necessary battle for control and freedom. #SkyrimStruggles
"He rallied the people and charged through the gates, Shield in one hand but the other a blade…" A triumphant moment, akin to leading a successful rebellion in the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, but with the bitter aftertaste of patricide. #WitcherWoes
"But what of the people, The legends don’t say, Just like a memory, They faded away…" A somber note to end on, reminding us that in the grand tales and epic narratives, the common folk are often overlooked. Just like the villagers in Minecraft, their stories are untold and their suffering is forgotten. #MinecraftMisery
Rosendale's "The King" is a somber ballad that peels back the layers of power and exposes the rot within. Just as in our beloved games, the narrative leaves us questioning the nature of power, the ethics of leadership, and the cost of ambition. So as the last notes of this lament echo into the ether, remember: in the chill of an ice wolf's den or the heat of a virtual battlefield, we are all part of this grand narrative. 🐺👑💔#IceWolfWisdom
This song is like telling me this story of this forgotten fantasy world somewhere out there and it’s just giving me such… such dreamy vibes ngl. A world that just disappeared into history ❤️
Brooo the amount of content you’ve been putting out is crazy!💙
I like your song!
I found her in an Spanish translation, your voice very comfortable and pleasant~
I love this
UNDERRATED
Que preciosa canción, me voy a escuchar el resto del álbum. Tiene un toque mágico muy bonito, el final de la canción te muestra que al final todo es un ciclo donde a los poderosos solo les importa su propio bienestar.
Vengo de la traducción jeje, quiero apoyar al autor original igual ❤️
This song sounds like music that you can fall asleep with👍
Well the prince became the father, the king he despises
The blood of evil do runs in the same vein
Me encanta, de verdad me encanta!
Que hermosa canción
This song goes perfect for my story that I'm writing
I love the song❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful
This is a masterpiece. I can see this being part of a fantasy/royal themed movie.
I love how the first and last line is the same. It's like a repeating story, the same cycle.
Me encanto la letra 😍😍
Şarkının sonunda prensin huzur ve barış getirmek yerine babasına dönüşmesi Ademoğluna dair acı ama gerçek olan bazı şeylerin tekrar farkına varmamızı sağlıyor... Böyle bitmesi daha iyi olmuş. Yalanlar ve güzel sonlarla süslü masallar yerine gerçekleri gösteren bir hikaye dinlemek daha iyidir.
i don't know what to say, there's no words can describe how good is this song. i like the story telling.
sensacional, me encanto amigo, gran trabajo
What a wonderful story! You don't find ballads like this everyday.
That was the best story I have heard 👍💓💜💖
Una historia profunda y una melodía hermosa ✨✨✨ muchas gracias por crear está belleza ❤️✨
Que hermosa canción, me dejo en un trance por la historia. Voy a escuchar el resto del álbum ✨️💖
Es una hermosa canción
I love this so much ❤❤❤ love this creation
