Crown
Gary Bird & the G.B. Experience Lyrics

They gone hold you down
People may try to hold you back or discourage you

But they can’t take your crown
Your success and achievements cannot be taken away from you

What will you do now
You need to decide your next steps in the face of adversity

Don’t get lost up in the crowd
Don't let the opinions or actions of others determine your path

Why you claiming you popping
Why are you bragging about your success?

Nigga just stop it
You need to focus on working hard instead of boasting about your accomplishments

Niggas all think that I lost it naw I just stopped to go get a deposit
People may think you are failing, but sometimes you need to take a step back to make progress

I burst through the door with the swiftness
I am determined and focused on success

Ain’t hear a word like I was a locksmith
I am so determined that nothing can distract me

You say you gonna pop shit
You claim to be successful or powerful

I heard you took off like a rocket
You may have had initial success, but it may not last

You claim your team is real but
You claim to have loyal and supportive people around you, but...

They gone hold you down
...they may actually be holding you back

Cause all your team is clowns
Your team may actually be undermining your success

I tried to teach you better but you kicked me when I’m down
I tried to help you, but you turned on me when I needed support

I’m trynna find my crown
I am focused on achieving my goals and finding success

So I can lead my town
I want to be successful so I can inspire and guide those around me

I can see all of these different things
I have a clear vision of what I want to achieve

(And I know you can’t)
(But others may not share my vision)

God give me strength to do anything
I am relying on a higher power to help me achieve my goals

(But you don’t know bout that)
(But others may not understand my faith or beliefs)

I need my clarity and some peace
I need to stay focused and calm in order to achieve my goals

(Aye, Aye)
(I am acknowledging and affirming my needs)

I need some piles of all that green and some platinum plaques
I want financial success and recognition for my accomplishments

Stacks on Stacks
I want to accumulate wealth and success

My niggas is acrobats the way that we flipping these racks
My team and I are skilled at making money and turning profits

It's facts you cap
I am stating the truth while others may be lying or exaggerating

I promise just chill relax you know that I’ll blow off these tracks
I am confident in my abilities and know I will achieve success

Get back get back
I am warning or challenging others to step out of my way

I’m feeling like captain jack don’t play cause you will get smacked
I feel powerful and in control, and I will protect what is mine

They lack they lack
Others may not have the same skills or abilities as me or my team

What you got don’t hold back
Don't be afraid to show your talents and abilities

Just focused on goals it’ll happen
If you stay focused on your goals, success will come

I’m finna blow
I am about to achieve great success

You chasing these hoes
Others may be focused on meaningless things instead of working hard

You niggas is hating cause I chase my goals
Others may be jealous of my drive and ambition

While they move in slow mo.
Others may be holding me back or slowing me down

I promise that I tried to teach you the ropes
I tried to help others succeed, but they did not listen

But you is a joke
Others may not be taking their own success seriously

I gotta go and just leave you alone
I need to focus on my own success and leave others behind

Cause I’m in my zone
I am fully focused and driven towards my goals

Gotta make sure that I’m building my home
I need to prioritize building a solid foundation for my future success

Gasoline is my cologne
I am ambitious and driven like a powerful fuel

You know that I’m faded I’m gone
I am so focused on success that I am not concerned about anything else

You all look the same are you clones
Others may not be pushing for their own unique success, but following the same path as everyone else

I feel like I’m bout to go rogue
I am willing to go against the norm and forge my own path to success

I want to just travel the globe
I want to see the world and experience all it has to offer

But all of these people just think I’m a foe
Others may be threatened by my ambition and success

Because of some hoe shit that I really can’t even control
Others may be judging me unfairly based on things out of my control

They bombing these niggas they bomb back
There may be conflict and destruction around us

Why the fuck are you blasting
Why are you contributing to the violence and negativity?

They killing these people it’s tragic
There is too much senseless violence and loss of life

Fake stories appear like its magic
Lies and falsehoods can seem convincing and powerful

But fuck it I need me a bad bitch and a pint of that lean to stay active
I need to blow off steam and indulge in some pleasures to stay productive

Naw nigga that bean got you actin
That drug is affecting your behavior and ability to succeed

I can see it through your screen you an actor
I can tell that you are not genuine or authentic

I can teach you to sing if you askin
I am willing to help others succeed if they ask for it

I can teach you to dream if you have it
I can help others achieve their goals and ambitions

I can teach you bout how to go bag up the green and to keep your hands clean if you bout it
I can teach you how to make money honestly and ethically

I can teach you be quiet when niggas is shouting cause it’s the weakest that’s loudest
It is important to remain calm and respectful in the face of conflict

But it’s on you to climb over these mountains stop making excuses about it
You need to take control of your own success and stop making excuses for your failures

Bitch
(An exclamation of confidence or defiance)
