Heavy Lyrics - Empire: Original Soundtrack, Season 2 - Empire Cast

All hail the king 

They say heavy is the head that wears a crown 

(They say heavy is the head that wears a crown) 

Aye 

They say heavy is the head that wears a crown 

Always used to think that, that was just some damn excuse 

Something that the weak say cause they couldn't hold it down 

But now that I wear it I know that shit to be true 

(No complaining though) 

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 

And I refuse to let my people down 

I'm the boss I'm the leader damnit I'm a lead 

Even though I'm startin' feel the real weight of this crown 

Not just the crown 

Feelin' like this whole damn kingdom sittin' on top of me yeah 

(Sittin' on top of me sittin' on top of me) 

Sit- sitting on top of me 

(Sittin' on top of me) 

Feelin' like this whole damn kingdom sittin' on top me yeah 

(Oooh sittin' on top of me) 

And I'm a 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 eating 

You can't explain defeat to somebody that never been beaten 

So that means no surrendering and no retreating 

Everything's on me (Hey) 

Everybody wondering what it's gonna be (Hey) 

Is he gonna fail is he gonna succeed 

Everybody keeps watchin', watchin', can't believe I'm a 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 

And I refuse to let my people down 

I'm the boss I'm the leader damnit I'm a lead 

Even though I'm startin' feel the real weight of this crown 

Not just the crown 

Feelin' like this whole damn kingdom sittin' on top of me yeah 

(Sittin' on top of me sittin' on top of me) 

Sit- sitting on top of me 

(Sittin' on top of me) 

Feelin' like this whole damn kingdom sittin' on top me yeah 

(Oooh sittin' on top of me) 

And I'm a carry it on my back until victory 

(Sittin' on top of me) 

Even though this whole damn kingdom sittin' on top of me 

(Oooh sittin' on top of me sittin' on top of me) 

Sit- sitting on top of me 

(Oooh sittin' on top of me sittin' on top of me) 

Sit-sittin' on top of me 

(Oooh sittin' on top of me sittin' on top of me) 

And I'm a carry it on my back until victory 

(Oooh sittin' on top of me sittin' on top of me) 

Even though this whole damn kingdom sittin' on top of me
