Crown & The Boss cover art

Paroles

[Verse 1]
Lee Crown on the Monday rush
Pressed shirt
Same worn shoes
Name tag swinging on his chest
Big dreams in a small office

Boss walks in
Tie half loose
“Morning
Crown
What’s the move?”
On the door
Gold letters shining
Oluwabiyi Timileyin smiling

[Chorus]
“Crown
I see a king in you”
That’s what the big man said
“You’re more than the chair you use
More than the files on your desk”
From the cubicle to the corner room
Story started with “yes
I can”
“Crown
I see a king in you”
Turned a worker to a made man (oh yeah)

[Verse 2]
Late night
Flickering laptop glow
Everyone gone
He’s still on the flow
Boss calls
“Crown
You still there?
Come upstairs
Bring that chair”

Two cups of tea on the glass table
“Tell me your plan if you’re able”
Lee Crown stutters
Then speaks true
“I want this life
But I want it new”

[Chorus]
“Crown
I see a king in you”
That’s what the big man said
“You’re more than the chair you use
More than the files on your desk”
From the cubicle to the corner room
Story started with “yes
I can”
“Crown
I see a king in you”
Turned a worker to a made man (hey)

[Bridge]
Some call him boss
He calls him “son”
Not by blood
But how far they’ve come

Paydays
Hard days
They share both sides
Two men
One faith
And a long
Long ride

[Chorus]
“Crown
I see a king in you”
That’s what the big man said
“You’re more than the chair you use
More than the files on your desk”
From the cubicle to the corner room
Now he signs with steady hand
“Crown
I see a king in you”
Oluwabiyi raised a crowned man
