The greater the power, the darker the mane
Clearly the right choice was not given reign
The Pride Lands are all I have left to gain
So I’ll be prepared, take direction from Cain
This cat has claws, throw me into the ring
I have an army of hyenas, who did you bring?
This jungle’s my game and I pull the string
You say I can’t do it, I say long live the king
Don’t speak of royalty unless you can duel
Royal vizier to Agrabah’s biggest fool
For now just a toy, a puppet, a tool
The pawn to get rid of so that I may rule
I bargain with thieves who never catch my bluff
To them promised riches are more than enough
But finding the right one is proving to be tough
So tell me, are you the diamond in the rough?
