“Crown of Thorns” sits in the heart of the 12 track “ Almighty ” album. The song changes the mood of the album with a eerie beat that Jaylon raps with an angry bitter tone. He’s pleading to listeners that he will do anything to be respected for his artistry. Even saying he’s willing to diss some of...
[Chorus : Redsun]
I know you're hungry for the fortune and fame Everybody's screaming your name
But do you want to risk it all
Or come into your eternal downfall
Cause things ain't always what they seem
Just take your time, you'll live your dream
Everything that glitters ain't gold
Be careful what you wishing for
Or you'll be wearing a crown of thorns
[Verse 1]
I'm on the roof of a tall building just viewing the city/
The sky grey, not only gloomy but windy/
Crack the top of a bottle of henny I take a sip for the pain/
I feel adrenaline fill up my veins/
Cold heart got me feeling like bane/ they tell me
"Musa be humble" nah fuck that, I don't feel it's a gain/
I'm not appreciated, who's ya king I'll abbreviate him
I'm piling bodies on bodies until you see the greatness/
If I crash and burn don't shed a tear for me/
Don't fear for me/ at a god speed I break laws of attraction
In fact you can't steer for me/
You think my visions impaired, this shit is clear for me/
What would it take for you to cheer for me/
You not accepting me is making me ill, you got the cure for me/
If I flash on the gram would you be here for me/
I need you here don't veer from me/
[Chorus : Redsun]
I know you're hungry for the fortune and fame Everybody's screaming your name
But do you want to risk it all
Or come into your eternal downfall
Cause things ain't always what they seem
Just take your time, you'll live your dream
Everything that glitters ain't gold
Be careful what you wishing for
Or you'll be wearing a crown of thorns
[Verse 2]
Rest in peace to the old me, a different energy done chose me/
I'm trigger happy with bars you wan't war promise I won't have cold feet/
The smoke free who wan't roast beef/
Elohim when the flow speak lift up ya whole team/
A gross scene leaving you smelling like goat cheese/
See most kings get their throats cleaned/
But not I Ima god I'm so high I gotta nose bleed/
I'm taking these matters into my own hands/
Who you love don't force me to kill a grown man/
The eye of success is staring down on me/
Please don't blink I need your crown on me/
Need you to smile on me/ what can I do for your
Heart I'm not sure I can take it if you frown on me/
For me to blow up I need you down for me/
And if you not throw the ground on me/
