(Ad-libs) Yeah, uh-huh. A lotta people want the top spot... But they don't know the weight of the crown. Uh. Look. (Verse 1) They see the kingdom now, but they don't know the battle Didn't have a team, just my ambition and my rattle Sittin' on the pavement, with a dream in my head They were talkin' all that talk, and I just pushed on instead Yeah, they came for a handout, thought the throne was just for free Never put in no work, didn't want the legacy I had to build this whole lane with my own hands and sweat And the first to wear the crown is the one who took the first step. (Hook) They see the crown, but they don't see the weight They just see the shine, they don't see the grind and the hate It's a lonely kinda feeling, when you're sittin' on the throne The Crown ain't for the weak, it's for the one who's built alone Yeah, I'm sittin' on the throne now, yeah I'm rockin' the crown And everybody who doubted, they all watchin' in my town. (Verse 2) Yeah, the pressure's always on, I can feel it in the air Can't afford to slip up, gotta show 'em that I care 'Bout the legacy I'm buildin', 'bout the people that I lead Gotta stay one step ahead, gotta plant another seed The real ones stuck beside me, yeah they know I hold the truth But the fakes, they came around just to siphon out my youth They want a piece of the glory, but they ain't got the drive Gotta move a little colder just to make sure I survive. (Bridge) This ain't just a title, it's a testament to me Every single challenge, every victory you see This ain't borrowed, it ain't bought, it's a hundred percent earned I was made to sit on top, a lesson well-learned. (Hook) They see the crown, but they don't see the weight They just see the shine, they don't see the grind and the hate It's a lonely kinda feeling, when you're sittin' on the throne The Crown ain't for the weak, it's for the one who's built alone Yeah, I'm sittin' on the throne now, yeah I'm rockin' the crown And everybody who doubted, they all watchin' in my town. (Ad-libs) Yeah. I'm here to stay. The King. The Queen. It's just destiny. Peace.
