Empire Cast, Jussie Smollett - Heavy lyrics

All hail the King they say heavy is the head
That wears the crown (Wears the crown)
They say heavy is the head
That wears the crown aye (Let's go)

They say heavy is the head
That wears the crown (Crown)
Always used to think that that
Was just some damn excuse
Something that the weak say
'Cause they couldn't hold it down (Down)
But now that I wear it
I know that shit to be true
No complainin' now daddy raised a soldier
Whether he knew it or not
He supplied the pain, I put it in the music
Made it hot strong back, strong shoulders

'Cause I'm holdin' up a lot
I'm underneath this bitch supportin'
Same time I'm at the top! (Woo)
And I refuse to let my people down
I'm the boss, I'm the leader, damnit
I'ma lead
Even though I'm startin' to feel the
Real weight of this crown not just the crown

Feelin' like this whole damn kingdom's
Sittin' on top of me, yeah
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me
Sittin' on top of me)
Sit-sittin' on top of me
(Sittin' on top of me)
Feelin' like this whole damn kingdom's
Sittin' on top of me, yeah
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me)
And I'ma carry it on my back until victory
(Sittin' on top of me)
Even though this whole damn kingdom
Sittin' on top of me (Ooh, heavy)

Head in my hands, more frequent
I gotta make sure that
My entire empire's eatin'
You can't explain defeat to somebody
That's never been beaten (Aww, nah)
So that means no surrenderin'
And no retreatin' everything's on me (Hey)
Everybody wonderin' what it's gonna be
(Hey) is he gonna fail? Is he gonna succeed?
Everybody keep watchin' and
Watchin' carefully i'ma show the world
I'm strong (I'm strong)

And I'm holdin' up a lot
I'm underneath this bitch supportin'
Same time I'm at the top (Woo)
And I refuse to let my people down
I'm the boss I'm the leader, damnit
I'ma lead
Even though I'm startin' to feel the
Real weight of this crown not just the crown

Feelin' like this whole
Damn kingdoms sittin' on top of me yeah
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me
Sittin' on top of me)
Sit-sittin' on top of me
(Sittin' on top of me)
Feelin' like this whole damn kingdom's
Sittin' on top of me, yeah
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me)
And I'ma carry it on my back until victory
(Sittin' on top of me)
Even though this whole damn kingdom's
Sittin' on top of me
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me
Sittin' on top of me)

Sit-sittin' on top of me
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me
Sittin' on top of me)
Sit-sittin' on top of me
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me
Sittin' on top of me)
And I'ma carry it on my back until victory
(Ooh, sittin' on top of me
Sittin' on top of me)
Even though this whole damn kingdoms
Sittin' on top of me
