Cortez Lake - Heavy Is The Head Lyrics

Yeah
It's for all those who ask for success
But didn't know the weight that came with it
Let's go

Bills on the table, phone never stops ringing
Mama needs medicine, little sister still dreaming
Uncle lost his job, cousins need tuition
I'm the one they call man on a mission

I wanted this life, yeah, I asked for it all
But sometimes I feel like I'm about to fall
Heavy is the head, heavy, heavy
That wears a crown, crown, boy

Pressure on my shoulders, shoulder
But I won't break down, won't break
Cause I'm holding up the world, world
For the ones I love, love, you

Heavy is the head, so heavy
But I'll rise above, rise up
Nephews need new shoes, grandma's roof is leaking
Trying to be everywhere, barely time for sleep

They say I made it, but the climb never stops
Gotta be the rock when the whole world drops
I wanted this life, yeah, I prayed for success
Everybody told me about all this stress

Heavy is the head, heavy, heavy
That wears a crown, crown, boy
Pressure on my shoulders, shoulder
But I won't break down, won't break

Cause I'm holding up the world, world
For the ones I love, love, you
Heavy is the head, so heavy
But I'll rise above

Hold on, stay strong
Every day's a struggle, but I knew the cost
Can't let them see me sweat, can't let them see me lost
You got this, don't stop

This weight makes me stronger
That's what I believe
Gotta keep on pushing for the life we need
Heavy is the head, heavy, heavy

That wears a crown, that crown, boy
Pressure on my shoulders, shoulder
But I won't break down, no way
Cause I'm holding up the world, world

For the ones I love, love, you
Heavy is the head, so heavy
But I'll rise above
Heavy is the head, but we rise

Heavy is the head, but we rise
And we keep on rising, for them
