When I Led the Guard

When I Led the Guard is a song in Disney’s The Lion Guard which is sung by Scar explaining to Ushari how he got his scar.

Lyrics

 * Scar:
 * When I was the Lion Guard's fiercest
 * I took most patrols on my own
 * So when I met this strange lion
 * I had no fear of being alone


 * He said he had wisdom and power
 * And the most powerful should be king
 * With help from me and my roar
 * He and I could rule everything


 * I found his idea intriguing
 * Though the most powerful lion was me
 * But the strange lion was scheming
 * And had a friend I didn't see...


 * That's how I got my scar
 * When I led the Guard


 * The lion would cure the snake's venom
 * As long as I did what he said
 * But I lost control and in rage
 * I roared and destroyed them instead


 * I expected to be praised near and far
 * For stopping that traitorous thing
 * But Mufasa just nicknamed me Scar
 * Then I knew he shouldn't be king


 * That's when I became Scar
 * When I led the guard


 * My first plot for vengeance
 * Was spoiled when I lost the Roar
 * My second plan later succeeded
 * Mufasa was king no more


 * If not for that miserable Simba
 * I'd have ruled Pride Rock to this day
 * But now, it is time
 * For Simba and Kion to pay


 * That's why I still am Scar
 * From when I led the guard
 * Oh-oh
 * That's why I still am Scar
 * And why I'll destroy the guard!
