Lyrics
Life of a rich man got me poor
The experience of living like a wealthy individual has left me feeling impoverished.
I've got everything but I want more
Despite having acquired a lot, I still have an insatiable desire for more.
Life of a rich mans got me poor
Reiteration of feeling poor despite living a life associated with the wealthy.
I'm the king of an empty castle
I am in a position of authority and opulence, but it feels hollow and lacking.
With no kingdom left to rule
Despite my position, there's nothing substantial for me to govern or control.
I've got a broken heart and no love
I am experiencing emotional pain and a lack of affection or care.
I feel like the court fool
I feel like a jester or a clown in the royal court, not taken seriously or respected.
Life of a rich mans got me poor
Reiteration of the feeling of impoverishment despite material wealth.
and i want more.
Expressing a continuous longing or desire for more despite having a lot.
I've got all the gold i'd ever need
I possess an abundance of wealth, specifically gold, beyond necessity.
I thought we rule the world my friend
Believed in the power and influence of wealth, possibly in a friendship or partnership.
but in that single heat beat
Realization that everything changed suddenly and dramatically.
Theres nothing left for you and me.
There's nothing substantial or meaningful remaining for us after the abrupt change.
Life of a rich mans got me poor
Reiteration of feeling impoverished despite association with wealth.
and i want more.
Continued desire for more despite the wealth or status.
