Still Crowned

Lyrics

Verse 1
I wore the block like gold
Had my name in smoke
Keys in my palm
Now my pockets broke

No car, no home
Just a borrowed ride
My hands shake bad
Tryna keep it high

I chased that numb
Till it chased me back
One more little taste
Then I lost the map

My crown fell fast
On a concrete day
Now I walk real slow
With my soul half-way

Pre-Chorus
Mama on the line
I can hear her cry
Brothers in the hall
With red in their eyes

I said I’m alright
But my voice won’t hold
The ceiling spins
And the room went cold

Chorus
Still crowned in scars
Still crowned in scars
I was the king
Now I’m falling hard

Still crowned in scars
Still crowned in scars
If I don’t come back
Tell them who I was

Verse 2
They wheeled me in
Under harsh white heat
Docs shook their heads
Won’t repeat what they said

Mama on the chair
Hands over face
Brothers curse the air
Can’t fix this place

I saw my past
In the glass that day
Every bad step
Punched a hole in faith

I tried to stand
But my knees gave out
One foot in life
One foot in doubt

Pre-Chorus
Mama on the line
I can hear her cry
Brothers in the hall
With red in their eyes

I said I’m alright
But my voice won’t hold
The ceiling spins
And the room went cold

Chorus
Still crowned in scars
Still crowned in scars
I was the king
Now I’m falling hard

Still crowned in scars
Still crowned in scars
If I don’t come back
Tell them who I was

Bridge
Thunder on the glass
Rain on the frame
Ain’t no tough guy left
Just a real last name

If I wake up broke
I’ll still pay my debt
If I wake up gone
I know they won’t forget

Chorus
Still crowned in scars
Still crowned in scars
I was the king
Now I’m falling hard

Still crowned in scars
Still crowned in scars
If I don’t come back
Tell them who I was

To be continued
Mama, don’t let go
