Burn the Crown

Intro

Verse 1 Match in the throne room, smile on my face Boys behind me with the gasoline cans Sheriff's at the bottom of a borrowed pew Pastor's at the back with the loan he ran Every king I ever bowed to Bought my back for a paycheck price Time the receipt came due in full Time the crown caught the fire twice

Pre-Chorus Strike the match Watch the gold Bow no more to bought-and-sold

Chorus Burn the crown, burn the crown Watch the gold run molten down Ash on the throne, dirt on the king I'd rather rule a town that's mine

Verse 2 Wife said honey, watch your back Bosses don't forget that fast I said honey, I been watched my whole life Now I want the watching to come and pass Bring your sheriffs, bring your suits Bring your judges with the borrowed gavels Bring whatever you can hire I been training for the cavalry

Pre-Chorus Strike the match Watch the gold Bow no more to bought-and-sold

Chorus Burn the crown, burn the crown Watch the gold run molten down Ash on the throne, dirt on the king I'd rather rule a town that's mine

Bridge Pharaohs fell, pharaohs fall Babylon, Berlin, them all Whoever's next is just a name Already carved on a wall of shame Burn the crown, burn the crown Watch the gold run molten down Ash on the throne, dirt on the king I'd rather rule a town that's mine I'd rather rule a town that's mine I'd rather rule a town that's mine
