Professor Green enlists the help of American singer-songwriter Sierra Kusterbeck from VersaEmerge to deliver the King Arthur-inspired track 'Avalon'. Named after the island of 'Avalon' taken from Arthurian legend, Professor Green uses the analogy to portray himself as King Arthur who's been fighting many battles (in his case, rap battles) and has survived the many experiences he's been through to achieve victory (mainstream success). 'Avalon' was also sync'd with the very first TV advert for British energy drinks brand 'Relentless', in which Pro altered the lyrics to the first verse.Highlight lyrics you want to quote as your Facebook status then click the ‘Post’ button.

Intro: Professor GreenIt's time to even it up
I guess a round table weren't equal enough
You can't contain me with chains, I'm free and I run free
Any enemy is coming with me when I'm done
Verse 1Whatever's asked of me, I have performed
I rid through rain into the eye of the storm
Still carrying the flame, I have the torch
Failure comes at a price, I can't afford
Never been half hearted, I put my all in
Forfeited all just to answer my calling
Wearing the scars of the wars that I've fought in
I should've been heading for the stars but I'm falling
Pre-chorus: Sierra KusterbeckI have your sword and cape
If you need them, I'll be swimming in the lake
Ooh baby, don't look down
Just take the crown
ChorusWe'll be kings forever, ooh-woah
Holding on together, ooh-woah
Feeling so much better, ooh-woah
When everything was wrong
And everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
Verse 2: Professor GreenI fought till I had no fight left, risked my death
Walked with conviction in every one of my steps
My strength's water enough to wash away
Any of the stains on my rep
Yeah, I fought off vultures, went against odds
When I was short on soldiers
I asked not for my burden to be lightened
But if I may have broader shoulders
So as I may carry the weight
All the doubt I had in me has been allayed
So from now until the day that I'm carried away
I will never walk around what stands in my way
Fuck if they ain't letting up cause neither will I
When I die, from the ashes an eagle will rise
Long as my blade and my faith'll keep me alive
Fear ain't something that you will see in my eyes
Chorus: Sierra KusterbeckWe'll be kings forever, ooh-woah
Holding on together, ooh-woah
Feeling so much better, ooh-woah
When everything was wrong
And everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
We ran to Avalon
Bridge: Professor GreenI left the competition out for the count, no abacus
Fought for the crown, thwart thy challengers
When my massacre was ordained, I remained
And through pain forged my sword
I left the competition out for the count, no abacus
Fought for the crown, thwart thy challengers
When my massacre was ordained, I remained
And through pain forged my sword, my Excalibur
Chorus: Sierra KusterbeckWe'll be kings forever, ooh-woah
Holding on together, ooh-woah
Feeling so much better, ooh-woah
When everything was wrong
And everything was gone
We ran to Avalon
