Luke Wynn - You Ain't Takin' My Crown

Aye
When I go to Five Guys I say, "All the way"
Lately I've been treating life like holidays
I've been dreaming I've been choppin' up on sway
Now I'm awake, aye
Namaste
Allergies used to put tears into my eyes
Nowadays a tear reminds me I'm alive
Being BLACK is always having alibis
I ain't Jesus, ain't tryna be sacrificed
I'm just tryna make a mill my own way
Go on an arena tour, make em scream till the dome breaks
Be the next black President, Dave Chappelle with yellow cake
Argue with Max Kellerman, Stephen A. giving bold takes
Aye, aye, aye, aye
I just wanna dream
Better yet, I want what I've been dreaming to be what I see
But all I see they killing dreamers 'cause they look like me
They tryna kill me, but I'm Hahadavis, it's a breeze

Feel like I'm stuck in my city right now
Young black man being told to pipe down, aye
I got the mic, I ain't being quiet now, nah
I'm king, you ain't taking my crown
Nah
You ain't takin' MY CROWN
I'm king, you ain't takin' my crown
Nah
You ain't takin' my crown, aye
Nah, Nah
You ain't takin' my crown
Aye
You ain't takin' my crown
Aye
She a Queen , you ain't takin' her crown
Nah
I'm a KING, you ain't takin my crown
Aye
Nah
You ain't takin' my

Aye
At Chick-Fil-A, I order number 2 deluxe
Went to Popeyes, shorty didn't show me love
So I told her that her edges need to be redone
She didn't like that, she probably spit in mi cup
I don't even care, I don't even care
After a long day, it'd be your pleasure if my presence there
I'm taken for granted, appreciation's really rare
I'm doubted by everyone only 'cause they really scared
They gotta stop my potential, if it kills 'em
Flatten my curve, as if my success will kill 'em
Top of it all, being BLACK, I'm the villain
Odds up against me, but I gotta win for my children
Selfish is the brand
Selfish is the brand
I gotta love me, 'cause I'm born with a target on my back
Love is rationed, like there's none left in the bag
I love me, I'm a KING, even if you ain't a fan, aye

Feel like I'm stuck in my city right now
Young black man being told to pipe down, aye
I got the mic, I ain't being quiet now, nah
I'm king, you ain't taking my crown
Nah
You ain't takin' MY CROWN
I'm king, you ain't takin' my crown
Nah
You ain't takin' my crown, aye
Nah, Nah
You ain't takin' my crown
Aye
You ain't takin' my crown
Aye
She a Queen , you ain't takin' her crown
Nah
I'm a KING, you ain't takin my crown
Aye
Nah
You ain't takin' my
