Grayson Walker - The Prince Lyrics



Grayson Walker - The Prince Lyrics
Official




Cloud cover, the crowd huddled, the route muddy
They sound trumpets, and down coming, a proud brother
He's out front, but then out jumps a foul youngin'
Hounds running, a loud shudder, the crown plummets
Blood brings the young king a blunt sting
The sun lingers, eardrums ringing, so come, bringeth
A pen, paper, the men waiting, a message taken
Protection vacant, my breath is failing, let death take me
40,000 feet in the air, hear my confessions
On top the world, feeling the atmospheric pressure
Of expectation, worst of all, I'm the one expecting
The most of myself, gotta be selfish to be selfless sometimes
I gotta get it myself 'fore I can share it
Next time I'll bring my brothers when I go out to Paris
And no one will know love like the girl I marry
Greatness inherited is greatness inherent
On the run, I lost home base
I lost love, but not as much as the love gained
I lost friends, I'll see them again one day
I lost you, but never my faith in some day
I love to write in the air, for the perspective
Retrospective thinking 'bout you, I got your message
It don't sound as dry while flying over the Sahara
Like when I was on the Champs-Élysées and I passed Zara
It might've been cool to me in Denver or in Memphis
But a block from the Louis V flagship, it wasn't tempting
So it don't feel as shady, how you did me, when I'm under Rwandan banana trees
Calamities from home are just fantasies from distant galaxies
Imagine me, custom made fit, a matching tee
Still mad at thee, hurt that you weren't a match for me
Drinking passion tea, made from the leaves of damaged trees
You damaged me, no damage seen, it's damning, but I'm managing
If you think this song is 'bout you, you're imagining
An alternate reality where vanity is abandoning
The sanity was once attached, but now replaced by fantasy
You're one of many that followed the same script
A short film, the main role, the game ends
The metaphor didn't stay consistent, the rhyme changed
The same way that you did, it's mind games
But I been playing a long time, I'm a vet now
The seasons change, we let go of our let downs
Baby, life goes on, don't know the ending
I've seen (scene) it all, until the next film
Relationship blooming, but I can't spring for it
The ring important, one thing enduring, I can't ignore it
The family tree gon' add some leaves, but now it's cloudy
Can't be too busy picking her roses to smell the flowers
Yeah, Bad Boy on the mic (Mike), Lowry
They could never hold me down, but they like fouling
Burn scars, I'm well acquainted with hellfire
Nice guys finish last, but I'm an outlier
About time, the town crier, he shouts wide
Announces the crown fits the crown prince
We move on, a new dawn, a new day
The king lays, the prince gazes on kids playing
Legacy proud, the prince now has to uphold
The sun pressing down, not a cloud, but he feels cold
Wandering sounds, once lost, now found, his ears allow
The noise of the crowd starts to drown out the doubt
His rightful place, it's tied to fame, inside the gates
The light of day, the brightest rays, a prideful gaze
Ancestors smiling, the best that I am, preceded highly
The prince is crying, the tears will dry in a crypt of giants
Trials lie on horizons soon arriving
Stipulating 'bout tribulations still unabating
It's part of living, remain persistent, it takes and giveth
Punish impatience, rewarding greatness, ours for the taking
One of a kind, my brother in line
My lover a dime, others behind, lying under oath
Turnberry Drive, I learn from my trials
I yearn to be wise, burning with pride, it's mine inside, vying to be chosen
I been to the gates, I stood on the scale
Unworthy of hate, unburdened by rage
Unvisited by shame, but I lack balance
Pride and prejudice alike, but untainted by malice
Glory is yours, the story implores
History made, inhibiting fate
Held down and held back, but never backed down
Been to the ends of the earth but I'm back now
Cloud cover, the crowd huddled, the route muddy
They sound trumpets, and down coming, a proud brother
Was once a boy, no longer coy, amongst the noise
A stronger voice, along with poise, the one appointed
Elated tones belay the groans as he takes the throne
In lace of gold, his face controlled, the day is cold
A prince rising, full horizon bears a pearl dawn
Wind time, wolf time, ere the world falls
