Searching every corner of my mind
Looking for the answers I can't find
I have my reasons and life has its lessons I try to be grateful
and count all my blessings
But heavy is the head that wears the crown
Amen in Jesus name yes I declare it Any
little seed I receive I have to share it
Brothers when they 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 float Rain
falling down at the bridge I'm still soaked
Try to put a hole in a ship we'll build
boats Two birds with one stone I'll kill both
Pray I never lose and pray I never hit the shelf
Promise if I do that you'll be checking on my health
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're saying I'm the voice of the young black youth And
then I say yeah cool and then I buy my suit and now I'm
Searching every corner of my mind
Looking for the answers I can't find
I have my reasons and life has its lessons I try to be grateful and
count all my blessings But heavy is the head that wears the crown
Amen in Jesus name yes I declare it Any little seed I receive I
have to share it Brothers when they break me down I can't bear it
I've 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 apologize
If you knew my story you'd be horrified
The irony of trapping on the borough's back
Gotta stay alive and save my brother as well
Look at all these legends on the cover of Elle
Long time coming but we come to prevail I
guess a little bit of heaven has to come
with the hell you know
Searching every corner of my mind
Looking for the answers I can't find I
have my reasons and life has its lessons
I try to be grateful and count all my blessings
But heavy is the head that wears the crown
