Keep Your Crown

Lời bài hát

YOU THINK I WANNA HAVE A BABY? [Verse 1] You think I wanna have a baby? When the family diagnosis is crazy? If they ain’t self-centred, they’re intellectually lazy, But somehow I’m the one whose memory’s hazy. They can’t solve a problem, Won’t admit they cause ’em. Got a closet full of skeletons, Tell me I’m wrong when I spot ’em. Try to sit ’em down and talk, Watch ’em get up, watch ’em walk. Then they pass around my name, Like leaving means they’re not to blame. [Chorus] You think I wanna have a baby? Hand this circus down? You’re crazy. If I don’t bow down, Let ’em keep their crowns, I’m the one who lets the family down. No more blood ties, No more bedtime lies, No little kid taught to swallow their pride. You think I wanna have a baby? You’ve already raised enough of those to last me. [Verse 2] “You’ve got some major problems.” “Hope you get the help you need.” Funny how concern comes out The second I don’t just concede. Everybody knows the quirks, Who twists the truth, how guilt works. They’ll tear each other up in private, Then take the perks and stand beside ’em. Talk behind each other’s backs, Smile when the favours land. Got a lot to say about my life, Till I ask where the hell they stand. [Pre-Chorus] Call it love, call it loyalty, Long as no one questions royalty. But if that crown depends on me Staying on my knees, then let it fall at my feet. [Chorus] You think I wanna have a baby? Hand this circus down? You’re crazy. If I don’t bow down, Let ’em keep their crowns, I’m the one who lets the family down. No more blood ties, No more bedtime lies, No little kid taught to swallow their pride. You think I wanna have a baby? You’ve already raised enough of those to last me. [Bridge] Yeah, I think I found the right lady, And our life ain’t missing a “maybe.” She can’t have your next grandbaby, And that doesn’t make our love less, does it? No passing down your fucked-up genetics, Then dressing up the damage with excuses and semantics. No extra ties for you to pull, No child at a table where the blame stays full. No teaching them to doubt their eyes, To keep the peace by telling lies. No “that’s just how your family is,” Like being born means signing up for this. [Final Chorus] You think I wanna have a baby? After all of this? You’re crazy. I won’t bow down, You can keep your crowns, Build your throne out of the ones you let down. No more blood ties, No more rehearsed lies, No child paying for your fucked-up pride. I found my lady, I chose my life. You don’t get a vote in what feels right. [Outro] “Who’s gonna carry on the family name?” You ask like that’s a prize to claim. You think I wanna have a baby? I’m still raising the one you made me.
