lyrics

Entitlement only leads to disappointment,
Because you can’t ever hang on too long to anything
They gave that man a microphone, and a song to sing
Now he’s sayin’ big words and he don’t know what they mean…
Because you can’t place a crown on the head of a clown
And then hope he turns out to be a king.

Competition only comes with a fine line,
And jealousy only seems to bring me down
Well I was never trying to be the queen,
I just take a lot of pride in who I am, and the way I sing…
I just know you can’t place a crown on the head of a clown
And then hope it turns out to be a king.

I believe in doin’ it right
Takin’ your time,
And staying true to who you are.
Fight the good fight
Keep those harmonies tight,
And maybe tuning your guitar.

I’ve got to get it off my chest, I’m trying my best,
I know some of y’all know what I mean
When I say, you can’t place a crown on the head of a clown
And then hope he turns out to be a king.


I’ve got to get it off my chest, I’m trying my best,
I know some of yall know what I mean…
When I say, you can’t place a crown on the head of a clown
And then hope he turns out to be a king.

You can’t place a crown on the head of a clown,
And then hope he turns out to be a king.
