Lyrics

Yeah

They never gave me the crown

So I built my own throne

King talk

King without a crown, still runnin' my town (Woo)

They tried to hold me down (Yeah), look at me now

I was lost, I was broke, I was feelin' that pressure

Now I'm way too focused, gettin' better and better (Woo)

King without a crown, still runnin' my town (Yeah)

Every time they doubted me, I turned it around

Had to build it from nothin', ain't nobody helped me

Now the same people watchin', wishin' they were me

Uh, I remember cold nights sleepin' with ambition (Woo)

Everybody had excuses, I was buildin' the vision (Yeah)

Never had a shortcut (What?), never had permission (Uh)

Had to make my own lane, that's the difference

Everybody wanna eat when the table full

Nobody wanna push when the road gets rough (Yeah)

I was in the dark tryna find the light

Now the spotlight bright and I'm shinin' right

Used to hear, "You won't make it," now they askin' how I did it (Woo)

Used to laugh at my dreams, now they quote me like I said it

I don't owe nobody nothin' (Woo), everything came from grindin' (Woo)

Every scar became a chapter (Woo), every loss became a lesson (Woo)

King without a crown, still runnin' my town (Yeah)

They tried to hold me down (Yeah), look at me now

I was lost, I was broke, I was feelin' that pressure

Now I'm way too focused, gettin' better and better (Woo)

King without a crown, still runnin' my town (Yeah)

Every time they doubted me, I turned it around

Had to build it from nothin', ain't nobody helped me

Now the same people watchin', wishin' they were me

Big dreams in a small room, now I'm thinkin' penthouses

Every year another level, every move got purpose

Now I don't talk about my plans, I just let the results speak

'Cause the loudest thing in life is success when they can't compete

I was hungry for the future while they comfortable with average (Yeah)

Now the gap gettin' bigger, every season I'm advancin'

Private meetings, bigger numbers, different people, different circles

Still the same one from the struggle, just a little more successful

I came too far to stop now (Woo)

Too many scars to stop now (Yeah)

Too many nights I stayed up

For me to ever slow down

Tell 'em I ain't chasin' fame, I'm

Chasin' freedom for my family (Yeah)

Tryna make sure my people never live through what happened to me

Pressure made a diamond (Woo), pain made a champion

Every setback built me, now I'm standin' like a monument

The throne wasn't given (Oh), I built it with my own hands (Oh)

Now they see me winnin', but they'll never understand

King without a crown, still runnin' my town (Woo)

They tried to hold me down (Woo), look at me now

I was lost, I was broke, I was feelin' that pressure

Now I'm way too focused, gettin' better and better (Woo)

King without a crown, still runnin' my town (Yeah)

Every time they doubted me, I turned it around

Had to build it from nothin', ain't nobody helped me

Now the same people watchin', wishin' they were me

King without a crown (Woo)

But still a king

Remember that
