[Verse 1] I built my name in sparks On a floor of iron dust You can read it in my stare I don't bend, I don't trust Hands like bolts, jaw set tight I was made to take the weight Every room I walk into I make the shadows wait [Pre-Chorus] Say my name Say it right I don't kneel I don't bite I was carved Not born soft If I fall I break the loft [Chorus] My crown, my crown I wear it loud My crown, my crown I cut the crowd Too proud, too proud I burn too bright My crown, my crown I own the night (my crown) [Verse 2] You saw the gold in my throat You mistook it for a plea But I eat the mirror whole Till it knows what lives in me I let my hunger drive I let my anger steer Every door I kicked apart Still whispers when I near [Pre-Chorus] Say my name Let it ring I don't bow To anything If I bleed Let it show I don't lose I just grow [Chorus] My crown, my crown I wear it loud My crown, my crown I cut the crowd Too proud, too proud I burn too bright My crown, my crown I own the night (my crown) [Bridge] When the steel runs red And the room goes black I'll meet my face And I won't step back All this pride All this flame If it kills me Say my name (say my name) [Final Chorus] My crown, my crown I wear it loud My crown, my crown I cut the crowd Too proud, too proud I burn too bright My crown, my crown I own the night (my crown) My crown, my crown No one takes it down My crown, my crown I wear the burn like a crown (my crown)
