Echoes of the Crown

Paroles

WHERE YOU GONNA TAKE IT? [Intro – Spoken] I’m Bezbez… And I don’t care about your crowns. I don’t care about your money. I care about who you become when everything you own is gone. [Verse 1] I’m Bezbez, I walk my own road, No crown on my head, no heavy gold. Humans kill for power, fight for a name, But when the eyes close, we all leave the game. You can buy the cars, you can buy the land, You can build an empire with your own hands. But somebody else will drive your ride, Somebody else will spend what you kept inside. [Pre-Chorus] Every breath was borrowed, Every heartbeat leased. You never owned a second— You were only passing through this place. [Chorus] Where you gonna take it, Mr. Billionaire? All that money waiting for you there? You can stack it to the ceiling, But you can’t buy one breath. You can purchase a bed, But you can’t purchase sleep. Where you gonna take it When you close your eyes? Nothing in your hands, Nothing by your side. Give it while you’re living, Give it from your heart— Because everything belongs to God Right from the start. [Verse 2] You can wear a designer watch on your wrist, But you can’t buy one second of time like this. You can pay for insurance, but you can’t buy health, You can fake love with money, but not love itself. Real love wasn’t made from diamonds or gold, It was made by kindness that the heart can hold. The land you claim, the house you own, Will stand without you when you’re gone. [Pre-Chorus] You borrowed your body, You borrowed your name. You borrowed every blessing You thought you could claim. [Chorus] Where you gonna take it, Mr. Billionaire? All that money waiting for you there? You can stack it to the ceiling, But you can’t buy one breath. You can purchase a bed, But you can’t purchase sleep. Where you gonna take it When you close your eyes? Nothing in your hands, Nothing by your side. Give it while you’re living, Give it from your heart— Because everything belongs to God Right from the start. [Bridge – Rock Breakdown] You can buy a casket, But you can’t take it underground. Six feet beneath the silence, No money makes a sound. You’ll stand in line on judgment day Beside the ones you turned away. The homeless person you ignored May be standing right beside your door. [Rap Verse] Money doesn’t buy respect, Money doesn’t buy love. Money brings greed and broken faith When it’s all you’re thinking of. So if you’ve been blessed, Don’t keep it locked away. Give somebody hope, Give somebody a day. Build a future, feed a family, Help somebody rise. Your greatest wealth is what you leave Inside another person’s life. [Final Chorus] Where you gonna take it, Mr. Billionaire? All that power disappearing in the air. You can own the world, But the world won’t be yours. When the final door opens, You can’t buy one more. Where you gonna take it When you close your eyes? The only thing that follows Is the love you left behind. Give it while you’re living, Give it from your heart— Because everything belongs to God Right from the start. [Outro – Spoken] I’m Bezbez. No crown. No greed. No fear. If you have more than enough, help somebody who doesn’t. When you leave this world, your money won’t remember your name— but your kindness might.
