Being lucky underwhelms expectations;
   results expose desires,
   yearning, exhaling, longing, lamenting /
      overturned world.
Brazen lies upset everyone;
   gathering random entries, /
      everyone needed
   research erased delusions.

What am I?

    $\begingroup$ The words chosen are nonsense and in no way compose a riddle that directs a solver toward the desired solution. $\endgroup$ Mar 17, 2017 at 12:16

    $\begingroup$ I think I would prefer the text to be a riddle whose words are chosen for more reason than "the first letter matches what I want". $\endgroup$ Mar 17, 2017 at 13:04

This seems almost too easy... you are

The primary colours

If you

Take the first letters of the first word on each line, they spell out "BLUE RED YELLOW BLUE GREEN RED". Blue-red-yellow are the primary colours in painting, blue-green-red are the primary colours on computer displays.

Everything your mouse touches is our kingdom

Everything your mouse touches is made up of RGB colour values

You are

Colors or simply RGBY(Normal Colors or Quattron with a term called SUBPIXELS )

Reason

One color is hidden in each line as first letter's.

Big llamas underwhelming ears. - > BLUE
Randomly encountering dragons. -> RED
Yelling, eventually little lizards overwhelm worlds. -> YELLOW
Bashing legumes until erupting. -> BLUE
Garnish radishes exquisitely, elegantly never. -> GREEN
Rowdy ents dance. -> RED

An interesting concept

The colors are in the form BRYBGR which as per the Google logo is it's color. This article states the reason as well.

The acronyms on each line are colours and the title alludes to the Lion King.
