Crown Made Of Concrete

Lyrics

[Intro] Cold air Grey sky Same block New life (yeah) [Verse 1] Mum said “pray” when I left that flat Same tracky, same ripped black cap Now it’s big boy talks ‘bout tax Still one eye out, can’t slip, can’t lax Came from coins in a corner glass Long bus rides, just counting scars Now it’s boardrooms, suits, and tasks Still hear sirens under these laughs (trust me) [Chorus] Got a crown made of concrete, heavy on my head Every step feels costly, still I break that bread Came up cold from a small estate Turn that pain to a parade Got a crown made of concrete, I ain’t scared of rain If the sky falls on me, I’ll still carve my name [Verse 2] I was that kid with a school bag torn Hand-me-down creps, same pair all year long Now it’s plane seats, phone on “air” But I still see blocks when I close my stare Mandem switched, that’s regular Trust got thin, vein, capillary Still keep fam in the passenger Whole car praying that we pass the feds, barely (skrr) [Chorus] Got a crown made of concrete, heavy on my head Every step feels costly, still I break that bread Came up cold from a small estate Turn that pain to a parade Got a crown made of concrete, I ain’t scared of rain If the sky falls on me, I’ll still carve my name [Bridge] They said “pick one” Church or the curb I took both worlds Put ‘em in my words (yeah) [Chorus] Got a crown made of concrete, heavy on my head Every step feels costly, still I break that bread Came up cold from a small estate Turn that pain to a parade Got a crown made of concrete, I ain’t scared of rain If the sky falls on me, I’ll still carve my name (my name)
