Borrowed Crowns

Текст песни

[Intro] You walk in talking like you own the room But every borrowed crown will lose its shine soon [Verse 1] You point your finger, making up the rules Counting every weakness like a collection of jewels I keep my cool while you sharpen your claim But a loud accusation doesn't make it true by name [Pre-Chorus] Step back, take a breath, look me in the eye If you want a fight, bring more than a lie [Chorus] You can call me what you want, I won't bend I know where I stand and I know who I am All that thunder fades when the facts come through You built that story, but it won't carry you [Verse 2] You trade little rumors by the vending machine Polish every sentence till it sounds obscene I hear the laughter, then the hallway goes still Funny how the bravest voice disappears when it will [Pre-Chorus] Step back, take a breath, look me in the eye If you want a fight, bring more than a lie [Chorus] You can call me what you want, I won't bend I know where I stand and I know who I am All that thunder fades when the facts come through You built that story, but it won't carry you [Bridge] No borrowed words, no borrowed fame No crooked mirror gets to choose my name Turn the lights on, let the whole room see The truth walks steady, and it walks with me [Final Chorus] You can call me what you want, I won't bend I know where I stand and I know who I am All that thunder fades when the facts come through You built that story, but it won't carry you [Outro] Keep your label, keep your little show I leave with my head high, and now you know
