Crown

STORMZY

7

Searchin′ every corner of my mind

Lookin' for the answers I can′t findI have my reasons and life has its lessons and

I tried 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 have to share it

Bruddas 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 falling down at the BRITs, I′m still soaked

Tried put a hole in our shit, we'll build boats

Two birds with one stone, I′ll kill both (What?)

Pray I never lose and pray I never hit the shelf (Two)

Promise if I do that you'll be checkin′ on my health (Cool)

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 zoot

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 'em, no silver lining)

I have my reasons and life has its lessons

I tried 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

Bruddas 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 and 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 come to prevail

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 'em, no silver lining)

I have my reasons and life has its lessons

I tried 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
