Crown

[Chorus: Stormzy] Searchin' every corner of my mind Lookin' for the answers I can't find I 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 [Verse 1: Stormzy] 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 bear 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 ship, 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– [Chorus: Stormzy & LJ Singers] 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 [Verse 2: Stormzy] 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 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 come to prevail I guess a little bit of heaven has to come with the hell, you know? [Chorus: Stormzy & LJ Singers] 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 [Outro: LJ Singers] Heavy is the head that wears the crown
