Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I used to pray for stronger shoulders
For a back that wouldn’t bend
For a heart that could keep standing
When the easy roads would end
Then the voices started calling
And the hands reached out for mine
Funny how becoming stronger
Means you carry more with time
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted strength
I wanted ground
Nobody told me
Strength gets loud
[Chorus]
Heavy is the crown
When everybody leans on you
Heavy is the silence
When they’re waiting for what you’ll do
I asked to be stronger
I never asked to be alone
But the higher that you rise
The more you learn
How heavy is the crown
[Verse 2]
There are names behind my decisions
There are lives behind my words
Every choice becomes a doorway
Every silence can still hurt
I can’t promise I won’t fail them
I can’t swear I’ll always know
But I can stand there in the weather
When they need somewhere to go
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe strength
Was never pride
Maybe strength
Is staying beside
[Chorus]
Heavy is the crown
When everybody leans on you
Heavy is the silence
When they’re waiting for what you’ll do
I asked to be stronger
I never asked to be alone
But the higher that you rise
The more you learn
How heavy is the crown
[Bridge – stripped]
I thought being strong
Meant never shaking
Never needing
Never breaking
Now I know
A steady hand
Can tremble too
And still hold on
[Build]
So bring the weight
Bring the doubt
Bring the nights
I can’t figure out
If they need a place to stand
I’ll stay
Even when
I’m afraid
[Final Chorus – huge]
Heavy is the crown
But I finally know its name
It’s every person
Every promise
Every choice I couldn’t blame
I asked for stronger shoulders
Now I know what strength is for
It isn’t standing over people
It’s carrying a little more
Heavy is the crown
But I won’t put it down
[Outro]
I wanted strength
Life gave me weight
And somewhere in between
I learned
How to carry it.
