Heavy Crown
Grizfolk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What kind of river we riding on?
What kind of ride do we roam?
Which way do we go when the breeze is gone?
Who's behind the lies we've been told?

Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world
Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world
Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world
Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world

Wake me up when it's going down
Let the voice in your heart make a lot of sound
Wake me up when it's going down
Whose head is holding this heavy crown?

Where do we go when the road runs out
Love will rise up indeed
Done whispering and thinking loud
Done blowing with the breeze

Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world
Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world
Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world
Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world

Wake me up when it's going down
Let the voice in your heart make a lot of sound
Wake me up when it's going down
Whose head is holding this heavy crown?

Whose head is holding this heavy crown?
Whose head is holding this heavy crown?




Whose head is holding this heavy crown?
Whose head is holding this heavy crown?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Grizfolk's song Heavy Crown speak about the confusion and uncertainty that exists in the world. As we navigate through life, we are constantly faced with difficult decisions and situations. The first verse alludes to the fact that we are all on a journey, but we are not always sure where we are headed. The line "What kind of river we riding on?" suggests that life is like a river, and we are riding the current. The question of "Which way do we go when the breeze is gone?" implies that when circumstances are difficult, it can be hard to know which direction to take. The lyrics also touch on the idea that we are often misled by society, asking "Who's behind the lies we've been told?"


The chorus encourages listeners to be a source of light and hope in this confusing world. The repetition of "Be the light in a cold, cold, cold world" drives home the importance of spreading positivity in the face of darkness. The second verse speaks about the power of love and how it can guide us when we feel lost. The line "Where do we go when the road runs out" suggests that sometimes we come to a dead end, but love can help us find a way forward. The lyrics also acknowledge the importance of speaking up and making noise, rather than whispering and "thinking loud."


In the bridge, the lyrics ask the question "Whose head is holding this heavy crown?" This metaphorical heavy crown represents the weight of responsibility and the burden of leadership. It is unclear who the crown belongs to, but the lyrics suggest that it is a difficult thing to bear.


Overall, the lyrics to Heavy Crown encourage listeners to be a positive force in the world, to have faith in the power of love, and to question the status quo.
