Lyrics
Yeah I don't want no crown, no It's gone weigh me down It's gone weigh me down It's gone weigh me... Yeah I don't want no crown, no It's gone weigh me down It's gone weigh me down... Yeah They tried to rush the album, I told them wait for it It's too complicated homie, I'm brainstorming Umbrellas in the air man, the inks pouring A band of gorillas swing through the rain forest They told me keep posting pics to stay relevant I guess I'm addressing the pink elephant White lines, blades on the glass, homie they chase ghosts Night vision I seen it all through them yellow tints I'm a cross between a millennial and an OG The hunger still burning in me, homie I don't sleep Lost boys breaking dawn when the suns low Somebody's blood was already drawn, I ain't got to grow teeth 30's the new 20 that's what they say to me I'm in my 40's I'm proud and I'm aging gracefully Hip hop I knew for sure it was a global phenomenon When sub-woofers was banging while I was touring through Ancient Greece I never tried to be on it just happened for me What does it mean to be on? I hate that category Bright lights and tour buses not even half the story That's why I feel bad for rappers that's chasing after glory Dang I don't want no crown, no It's gone weigh me down Yeah See I grew up on cassette tape's I guess I'm just as good as everybody except Drake 10 years under the microscope they spectate Expectations high, that's how they gauge my success rate Boi, it's been a shift in the paradigm Yeah, this is not a sprint it's a marathon It's a shame how the thought of losing steam in your career can make an artist feel terrified, dang That's why we need God involved Felt like New Year's Eve when I dropped the ball Keep the shot close, crop the pic if the crowd is small Cause I don't want my peers to think that any ground is lost Boi, that's why I walked off of social media Felt so good that's when my focus started speeding up Not having that pressure on me man freed me up Because I could get a million likes but it's never going to be enough They just did a standing ovation for me But these days I just want to talk the creation story What's the difference between Gilgamesh and the real flood People have such a hard time dealing with faded glory Dang I don't want no crown, no It's gone weigh me down Yeah Strong foundation I can't deviate Derek Minor told me that I am the Kobe in CHH But if I'm watching everybody else God could be doing great things with me that I won't appreciate Boi, you run out of breath when you chase things That's why am keeping the main thing the main thing Cause if the focus ain't up and Jesus ain't first You will go into a depression when the fame leaves Boi, are you not entertained now? I promise to God this is not a game now Wale said if I don't get the fans that I'm looking for I'm gonna pull the trigger and blow my brains out Celebrity life is so glorified Pictures with entertainers, high profile But if all of that really meant anything Then tell me why Robin Williams would hang himself from a door knob Boi, four reality show offers, I turned them down Calls to do major collabs, I turned them down Not that I'll never do it, just don't want to blur the lines Nobody chasing ghosts homie I'm on the job Nobody chasing crowns boi I'm on the job I don't want no crown, no It's gone weigh me down It's gone weigh me down It's gone weigh me... I don't want no crown, no It's gone weigh me down It's gone weigh me down... It's gone weigh me down, yeah It's gone weigh me down, down, down... It's gone weigh me down, yeah
