Crown

Searchin' every corner of my mind

Lookin' for the answers I can't find

I have my reasons and life has its lessons

I try to be grateful and count all my blessings

But heavy is the head that wears the crown

Amen in Jesus' name, yes, I declare it

Any little seed I receive, I haffi share it

Brothers wanna break me down, I can't bare it

But heavy is the head with the crown, I still wear it

You can't hold me down, I still cope

Rain fallen down at the bricks, I'm still soaked

Try and put a whole in our shit, we'll build boats

Two birds with one stone, I pull both

Pray I never lose and pray I never hit the shelf

Promise if I do that you'll be checkin' on my health

If it's for my people, I'll do anything to help

If I do it out of love, it's not to benefit myself

Ooh, gotta stay around but make a comeback, too

I know my only mother wants her son back, too

They sayin' I'm the voice of the young Black youth

And then, I say, "Yeah cool", and then, I bun my zute

And now, I'm

Searchin' every corner of my mind (Search every corner, look for the answers)

Lookin' for the answers I can't find (No, I can't find them, no silver lining)

I have my reasons and life has its lessons

I try to be grateful and count all my blessings

But heavy is the head that wears the crown

Amen in Jesus' name, oh, yes, I claim it

Any little bread that I make, I have to break it

Brothers wanna break me down, I can't take it

I done a scholarship for the kids, they said it's racist

That's not anti-white, it's pro-Black

Hang me out to dry, I won't crack

All these fancy ties and gold plaques

Never had no silver spoons in our mouths

We sold, like

Don't comment on my culture, you ain't qualified

Stab us in the back and then apologise

If you knew my story, you'd be horrified

The irony of trappin' on a Boris bike

Gotta stay alive and save my brother as well

Look at all these legends on the cover of Elle

Long time comin', but we've come to prevail

Oh, I guess a little bit of Heaven has to come with the Hell, you know?

Searchin' every corner of my mind (Search every corner, look for the answers)

Lookin' for the answers I can't find (No, I can't find them, no silver lining)

I have my reasons and life has its lessons

I try to be grateful and count all my blessings

But heavy is the head that wears the crown

Heavy is the head that wears the crown
