No Crown

Oh, I let you down?

Didn't know I wore your crown

Didn't know one slip would drown

Every time I held you up when you were face-first in the ground

Funny how it works right now

All my silence screaming loud

Every good I ever did just buried underneath the sound

Of one mistake you disavowed

Yeah, I almost drowned

But you don't talk about that now

You just point and drag me down

Like you never needed out

Say it loud, I'm not your saint

Break me down for one mistake

Paint me like I'm all you hate

Just to hide what you won't face

No crown, no throne, no saving grace

Just a man you can replace

You don't want the truth I found—

You just want me face-down

Hope you're proud of how this plays

Turned your love into a stage

Where you act like you're immune

But you're just better at the shade

All your skeletons behave

When the spotlight shifts away

Dust your mirror, take a look—

Tell me I'm the one to blame

I see it now, I see it clear

Need a villain, I'm right here

Easy target, crystal smear

While you choke on all your fear

Stay up high on your horse

Looking down like you're pure

But the higher that you climb

The harder truth hits the floor

Say it loud, I'm not your saint

Break me down for one mistake

Paint me like I'm all you hate

Just to hide what you won't face

No crown, no throne, no saving grace

Just a man you can replace

You don't want the truth I found—

You just want me face-down

You just want me face-down

Oh I let you down? I didn't know I had a throne

Didn't know one crack would shatter everything I've ever grown

All my good was quiet, now my flaws are megaphoned

You don't want accountability, just someone you can stone

Yeah, I see you—perfect when it's convenient

Preaching from a place that you don't even believe in

Pointing fingers like you've never had a reason

To bury your own demons deep enough to keep 'em sleeping

Stay on that high horse, I'll rise from the dirt

At least I faced mine—you just dress yours in church

Say it loud, I'm not your saint

Break me down for one mistake

Burn my name, erase my face

Still won't fix what you can't face

No crown, no throne, no saving grace

I won't beg or know my place

You can watch me hit the ground—

I'll still rise without your crown

No crown…

No crown…

I don't need your crown
