This is the Monarchy’s flagship song. As we were putting together the record, we wanted a triumphant sounding bombastic intro that explained our mission as a band and the meaning behind our name. Our story is that after a lifetime of musical experiences of all kinds, we wanted to simply write good songs, play great shows and make all decisions without interference. No more caving to other’s demands or egos – just a songwriting team and powerhouse live duo. Bow Before Us is obviously a tongue in cheek way of saying “We are here – now pay attention!” But the song goes a little deeper and dives into the idea that in each of our lives we are kings and queens of our kingdoms – that of our minds and hearts. We must never relinquish control to others over our emotions or our fate. Simple self control and determination will not only drive you forward in life, but let you live like a king or queen emotionally and spiritually. So we hope you get a boost from the lyrics. We aren’t really asking you to genuflect before us, but rather turn to the world and demand they do so. The Monarchy’s mantra as a songwriting team– “If it is to be it is up to we” is our guiding principle. Make it yours.
Bow Before Us
Song Lyrics:
The king's realm gives reign
over feelings
shame and anger,
subjects kneeling
Lost soul's Kingdom,
Feels like prison,
Birth right, self worth,
his decision,
Pre
He can rule his own destiny
self control is his weaponry
rise above guilt and jealousy
Royals hear the sound of
His Peasantry
Chorus 1
Bow before him
& They will say
Bow to his crown
Than they all will
Bow before us
And he will say
Bow your head down
Verse2
Queen waves septer
over emotion
Brave heart assured
conviction spoken
Pre 2
She will forge her own destiny
Her self worth will be remedy
Seeing through eyes of empathy
With royal blood flowing thru
her pedigree
Chorus 2
Bow before her
& they will say
Bow to her crown
Than they all will
Bow before her
& She will say
Bow your head down
BRIDGE
Each of us are lord's of our realm
Words we speak are our decree
Each one of us a king or queen,
Each of us a monarchy….
Last Chorus:
Were The Monacrhy
Bow before us
& We will Say
Bow to our crown
and they all will
Bow before us
and we will say
Bow your head
All our Kingdom...
Bow before us
& We will Say
Bow to our crown
and they all will
Bow before us
and we will say
Bow your head down
