From the recording Heavy Is The Crown
Lyrics
Stealing my bones
I was forged in the fire
No hand to hold me
I walked the wire
Every scar, carved a name in stone
Built my kingdom with blood alone
They see the throne, but they don't see the cost
Every win came with something lost
No silver spoon, no guiding hand
Just dirt in my teeth and a will to stand
You want the way, come take it now
But don't look down
Heavy is the crown, it cuts through the skin
Worn by the few who refuse to give in
You want the power, the fire, the flame
But you don't want the scars or the weight of the name
It breaks and it bends, carried alone till the bitter end
Stand in my place, you'll never be the same
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the name
Heavy is the name
They talk like kings, but they kneel in disguise
I read the truth in the back of their eyes
Smiles like knives, they sharpen in dark
Waiting their moment to tear you apart
I don't break, I don't fold, I don't run
I've buried the fear, I've already won
Every doubt just fuels the rage
I turn my pain into war on this stage
You want the throne, then bleed for it now
And don't back down
Heavy is the crown, it cuts through the skin
Worn by the few who refuse to give in
You want the power, the fire, the flame
But you don't want the scars or the weight of the name
It breaks and it bends, carried alone till the bitter end
Stand in my place, you'll never be the same
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the name
Heavy is the name
No cheers, no lie, no applause and sound
No hands to catch me when I hit the ground
They pray for the fall, they wait for the crack
But I rise every time they think I won't come back
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the name
Heavy is the crown, still I wear it proud
Through the worry, through the doubt, through the crowd
Every scar, every loss, every flame
I became who I am through the weight of the name
Heavy is the crown, let it break me or not
I carry the fire, I carry the shot
You want the throne, then step in the pain
Heavy is the crown, heavy is the name
Heavy is the name
