Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dad wanted the best for the Lion Guard, and I found that
But now, maybe the best isn't good enough
I just don't understand
[Verse 2]
Why, why even trust me at all?
They say the guard is my call
But then come tell me I'm wrong
Now what, what should I do?
And who, who do I turn to?
Now everything feels so upside down
[Verse 3]
Deep down, maybe I knew
It was way too good to be true
With all my friends looking up to me
Some leader I turned out to be
[Verse 4]
Kion
Hevi kabisa, are you?
Yes, Kion, I am your grandfather
Mufasa, I've heard a lot about you
And I've been watching you
You are about to embark on a great journey, Kion
Leader of the Lion Guard
[Verse 5]
I'm not sure Dad's gonna let me lead the Lion Guard
He's worried that I can't handle it
Kion, Simba is worried
But he's worried because he loves you
Being leader of the Lion Guard
Will not always be easy
[Verse 6]
Then, maybe dad's right, maybe I'm not ready to lead
Or use the roar, I'm not even sure I can control it
First it's super loud, then it's just a squeak
And I, I don't wanna end up like Scar
[Verse 7]
Don't be afraid, Kion
Trust your instincts
The roar will be there for you when you need it
And so will I
Until the Pride Lands end
[Verse 8]
Grandfather Mufasa, don't go yet
Trust my instincts
The roar will be there when I need it
[Verse 9]
Maybe my journey is far from done
They need a leader and I'm the one
So now it's time for them all to see
The lion I was born to be
[Verse 10]
It is time to take the lead on my own
It is time for something bigger than I've ever known
No need to wonder, the choice is done
Now I believe I truly am the one
[Verse 11]
So is it time?
Is it time?
Yes
It is time
