Earn My Crown

I grind all day, no sleep, no play They talk, I walk, no time for delay My mind on lock, my will on fire Every step I take, I’m climbing higher Snakes in the grass, I cut ’em with pace Wanna be a queen? Gotta run that race No handouts, I build this base Earned respect — not just a pretty face Yeah, lights on me, but I lit that flame Didn’t come for the fame, I came for the name Bleed for the beat, I train for the game Fall, get up — I’m never the same Talk is cheap, but my bars ain’t free Dreams too big, can’t fit in a screen Wrote my path, no ghost in the scene What you see? Just raw, just queen I work, I bleed, I rise, I fight I burn through doubt, I own this mic No luck, just grind, don’t play that clown I don’t beg — I earn my crown Earn my crown — yeah, I earn my crown Head held high, can’t shut me down Earn my crown — yeah, I earn my crown Cut from the steel, I run this town Hustle like breath, it’s my daily prayer Eyes on the prize, I don’t even stare At hate, I smile, I’m built to last They flex, I focus, I move too fast Check my scars, they shine like gold Earned my stripes in a world so cold Every “no” made my soul unfold Now I speak, and the silence folds Clock don’t stop, I flip that page Built my world, I’m out that cage Paid my dues, no minimum wage Now I’m loud — this girl’s on stage Label me wrong? I flip the script Took the pain, turned it into grit Nothing to lose, I’m fully lit Crowns ain’t given — I make it fit I work, I bleed, I rise, I fight I burn through doubt, I own this mic No luck, just grind, don’t play that clown I don’t beg — I earn my crown Earn my crown — yeah, I earn my crown (Say it loud) — can’t shut me down Earn my crown — yeah, I earn my crown Cut from the steel, I run this town
