Throne of Thorns

Lonely at the top, it's so cold and so desolate
It cost me so much, I'm working on deficit
A house made of cards, the structure's so delicate
Leading the people- that's what it means to be President

If I'm the king then Kelsey's the queen, and you all know that means
The club is my court no jokers, and the whole team is royalty
But it means so much more to me, they'd all go to war for me
But if they going in I'm going in with them we tight like family
Start from the bottom we started from nothing
Had only 4 members we turned to a dozen
Then we went we were flipping the numbers, how we went 0, 100
$80 that was our whole budget, more than enough we managed to function

Others tripped and fell flat on their face not us, we hit the ground running
It's more than me, I had support; a pen does nothing without a board
I wrote ideas, I hatched the schemes, but thank my team they made it work
Top of command but I was commanded, I did my role as was demanded
Being a leader you don't understand it
If you were in my shoes you woulda panicked
That's why I'm standing side-by-side with all my people, eye-to-eye
They gave me the seat, I have to drive, they trust in me we ride-or-die
I don't above, I stand with, but I bear more weight, still standing
I take less and give more, whatever credit I did more

I feel like Atlas the world on my back, then turn to Drake go back to back
Become a star and then after that I grind again, it's back to raps
Tearing through these beats it's a hack n' slash, it's a marathon and I run the laps
In this race I'm first place, gotta stay ahead on my worst days
Stay first rate but it's more than title and more than a flex
It's a status and job and there's more to the paper than writing out checks
It's a whole lot a stress organizing the mess a whole lot of labor and not so much rest
But through the duress I can't complain when I work with the best
Look at my boys I got 'em, whatever they I want I bought 'em
Planting the seeds I reap what I sow and look just how they blossom
Isn't it awesome check it out, when it comes to music we the best around
I'm like Sean Carter but a step up, we don't run this shit we wreck the town

Diss up on my club and I have to take it personal
Send your body flying like you leaving from a terminal
Have you flip so much you're dizzy from the vertigo
When you land down again your condition terminal
