Always knew that one day a sprite would set me free

You've always kept your distance
Noting the historical tendency of the person to maintain distance.
I wasn't sure if you knew my existence
Uncertain if the person is aware of the speaker's existence.
Perhaps this could be just a cognitive dissonance

You had your crown and I had mine

(Just give me) One chance

One day I'm going to come out from my shell, and tell you how I feel

I've always kept my distance

I didn't know about your position
