Conan Gray's lyrics express a confident assertion of self-worth and romantic dominance. The narrator believes they are the only one who can truly fulfill their love interest’s emotional needs, despite the latter's flirtations and attempts to find satisfaction elsewhere. They highlight their unique ability to provide genuine connection and love, positioning themselves as irreplaceable. The repeated insistence on being "the king" underscores their belief in their supreme role in the other person's life. The song conveys themes of unrecognized loyalty and inevitable realization of true love 💖. Ultimately, it’s about knowing one's value and waiting for the other person to recognize it too 👑.
The King
Lyrics
Crush always making me feel like I got nothing to offer
But I'm the only one that can make you feel right
I'm the only one that you think of at night
Baby, don't lie
You're always talking to me like you're totally bothered
So why you always ring at the end of my line?
Don't you got a girl that can make you feel nice?
It's a dead sign
You see me as your lifeline
Other boys and girls never really made you feel right
And you can't explain why I'm always running your mind
Don't you see the answer's right in front of your eyes?
You like me, oh, obviously
So why you trying to leave when you know that I'm the king?
(You'll see)
'Cause I'm supreme
(Choose me)
Other lovers give you no luck
'Cause I'm the only one that has made you fall in love
(You'll see)
So just shut up
(Choose me)
Babes always flirting away, getting every number
And you can have your fun 'cause I know that it's fake
I know when you're done you'll come running my way
So I let you
Date everyone and complain that you can't find a lover
'Cause I'm the only one when the chemistry fades
I'm the only one at the end of the day
Kinda cliche
You see me as your lifeline
Other boys and girls never really made you feel right
And you can't explain why I'm always running your mind
Don't you see the answer's right in front of your eyes?
You like me, oh, obviously
So why you trying to leave when you know that I'm the king?
(You'll see)
'Cause I'm supreme
(Choose me)
Other lovers give you no luck
'Cause I'm the only one that has made you fall in love
(You'll see)
So just shut up
(Choose me)
I'm the one you're coming to when you're feeling alone
And I'm the only one who's gonna pick up the phone
Looking for the one but it's me all along
(Choose me)
Baby, I'm the one, yeah, that's something you've known
No, I'm not a quitter, yeah, I get what I want
Playing with your heart 'cause you give me the throne
Choose me
You like me, oh, obviously
So why you trying to leave when you know that I'm the king?
(You'll see)
'Cause I'm supreme
(Choose me)
Other lovers give you no luck
'Cause I'm the only one that has made you fall in love
(You'll see)
So just shut up
(Choose me)
