LaLion - FOR THE CROWN Lyrics

When you've been working since you were thirteen
Promised mom buy everything
Burnt so often fire talking
Scars so dark they fill your dreams
Nightmares to the young and clean
Life here ain't for some it seems
Pray for day when heaven stays but
You ain't put no work in for the crown
You ain't put no work in from the ground
You ain't give your life to make a change
You ain't sacrificed to say your better than the rest
Cuz
You ain't put no work in for the crown
You ain't put no work in for the town
You ain't give your life to make a change
You ain't sacrificed to say your better than the rest
Cuz
I swore to God that I'd have a grammy by now
Did it all for granny but sadly she passed away hope she proud
Hope that I make it
I pray it
Never sets into the hatred
You think you earned
I'm certain didn't
You ain't put no work it for the pain felt
Days melt
Pray for the rain cuz the hate welts
Burnt up
Turnt up
Look in the mirror you a crook bruh
Stealing from the feeling
Like you earned a couple million
You a minion to the bidding of the clout you think you fit in
But you never will
Boy you better be fine with that
Cuz the ones that do look at you know that they won't really last
If you fit into the mold
Stay controlled
Censor yourself praise the old
Then you won't last a second in the real world fake woke
When you've been working since you were thirteen
Promised mom buy everything
Burnt so often fire talking
Scars so dark they fill your dreams
Nightmares to the young and clean
Life here ain't for some it seems
Pray for day when heaven stays but
You ain't put no work in for the crown
You ain't put no work in from the ground
You ain't give your life to make a change
You ain't sacrificed to say your better than the rest
Cuz
You ain't put no work in for the crown
You ain't put no work in for the town
You ain't give your life to make a change
You ain't sacrificed to say your better than the rest
Cuz
Crown made of thorns
Bloody face I been torn
By the race to be great
They debate on the Horns
I been up
I been down
I been trapped underground
With the rats
And the cats chasing dreams of the crowds
Dreaming of the crowds around him
Screaming like you made them proud when
All you did was give them anthems
Lift they heads and say they matter
Would you rather me be shattered
By the goals I never gathered
Til they stacked up enough for me to jump over rafters
Woah
I been under the ground so long
That the pressure turned me to a stone
To a diamond on my microphone
So they finally hear
When you've been working since you were thirteen
Promised mom buy everything
Burnt so often fire talking
Scars so dark they fill your dreams
Nightmares to the young and clean
Life here ain't for some it seems
Pray for day when heaven stays but
You ain't put no work in for the crown
You ain't put no work in from the ground
You ain't give your life to make a change
You ain't sacrificed to say your better than the rest
Cuz
You ain't put no work in for the crown
You ain't put no work in for the town
You ain't give your life to make a change
You ain't sacrificed to say your better than the rest
Cuz
