Connection to Game
Like a knight, I'll fight, until the fight is won - Sonic's "never give up" attitude.

And I live to rule by the sword - The sword-play factor in the game.

As I sit and as I stand by the table I command my kingdom - Sonic being the one and true King Arthur.

Hey all, welcome to the end, it's near - King Arthur's kingdom nearing its end.

I know, I will bring you pain and fear - King Arthur summoning demons and becoming an evil tyrant or Merlina taking over of the kingdom.

I'm the knight of the wind - The title first given to Sonic by Percival.

In a flash, I'm gone - Sonic's speed.

Holding your crown high - Sonic assuming the role as the one and true King Arthur.

I save each and every, each and every, each and everyone - Sonic, as himself, saving each and every person.

Trivia

 * When Crush 40 performed this song live at Summer of Sonic 2010 in London, they changed the lyrics "by the table I command" to "by the table she commands" to be more sensitive towards the British crowd.
 * Also, in the studio version, the line: "Here to conquer near and far" was changed into "Here to take you near and far".
 * There are several versions of this song that play throughout the game, but the full version is first heard during the credits after the completion of the Knight's Tale story.
 * Jun Senoue created an instrumental version of this song that can only be heard on the game's soundtrack.
