Lyrics

[00:04.96] All hail the king
[00:05.89]
[00:08.46] They say heavy is the head that wears the crown
[00:11.58] Wears the crown
[00:12.56] They say heavy is the head that wears the crown
[00:15.81] Aye
[00:16.80] They say heavy is the head that wears the crown
[00:20.21]
[00:20.72] Always used to think that was just some damn excuse
[00:24.42]
[00:24.93] Something that the weak say cause they couldn't hold it down
[00:28.51]
[00:29.07] But now that I wear it I know that *****t to be true
[00:32.90] No complaining no
[00:34.53] Daddy raised a soldier
[00:36.07] Whether he knew it or not
[00:38.30] He supplied the pain I put it in the music made it hot
[00:42.53] Strong back strong shoulders
[00:44.68] Cause I'm holding up a lot
[00:46.54] I'm underneath this ***** supporting
[00:49.02] Same time I'm at the top
[00:51.06] And I refuse to let my people down
[00:54.46] I'm the boss
[00:55.57] I'm the leader damn it I'ma lead
[00:58.67] Even though I'm starting to feel the real weight of this crown
