First you say that the weight of the world's on your shoulders
Then you say that you've got it in the palm of your hand
Just when I thought that you couldn't get any bolder
Should've guessed, puff your chest just to prove that you can
Must get lonely living out of spite and always being right
Heavy is the crown you wear, heavy is the crown you wear
It ain't easy being king, have your way with everything
Heavy is the crown you wear, but it's the burden that you bear
And I wouldn't try it on even if you let me, it's just so heavy
Heard you say that you got everything in your pocket
Won't admit that you're just hanging on by a thread
Right when I thought you might give me a chance to rock it
Should've known you'd go sit a throne that's as big as your head
And everyone around you must bow down, cuz who rules this town
Heavy is the crown you wear, heavy is the crown you wear
It ain't easy being king, have your way with everything
Heavy is the crown you wear, but it's the burden that you bear
And I wouldn't try it on even if you let me, it's just so heavy
It's your world that we all just live in (we know)
Take or leave what it is that you're giving (oh)
Long live the king who wears the crown that brings him down - it's just so heavy
Just so heavy, just so heavy, just so heavy
Heavy is the crown you wear, heavy is the crown you wear
It ain't easy being king, have your way with everything
Heavy is the crown you wear, but it's the burden that you bear
And I wouldn't try it on even if you let me, it's just so heavy
