Weight of the World Lyrics

I been told that the road ain't gold

Had stepped on toes since a boy could know

Never had a wonder when I spit the heat for summer

Gotta have a mind of rubber when you breaking with the mold

Been told I'm a pistol

Had society coming at me like a missile

I done had the weight upon my plate from one mistake to higher stakes

Until the break could have me feeling like a thimble

What you know about a struggle

What you know about a necessary double

I done fed the fam with 40 dollars for a week

You call it weak, I call it pushing without muscle

My fight keeps me inside 'til night

I wake up then I write what I seen outside

Had to look above my shoulder to the boulder that I holster

I been holding it for over better parts of the time

His life, her life, their life

I just wanna be right inside their eyes

If it means I share the dream with every member on my team

Then imma be Atlas 'til the day I die

Won't let you weigh me down

I took the weight that you just piled on, put all of it inside of my palm

It's nothing to me now

I've held the weight that you rely on and I'll be the one to

Carry the weight of the world, put it on me, put it on me

Forget all the things you've heard, I'm betting on me, I'm betting on me

Do you see why I feel this way

Been carrying all this weight

I done sweat my blood and tears

Just put it on my shoulders imma hold it through the years

I know that I will be great

Just gotta fight through this hate

I ain't fell to the last straw yet

Imma carry all the weight of every world inside my chest

I feel it heavy on my shoulders

Like a boulder, I'm getting older

But I ain't finna take a rest now

I'm digging deep now, ain't gonna leave now

It look so easy when I do it,

I went through it, ain't gotta prove it

I climbed the heights, I'm at the top now

Ain't gonna come down, I'm claiming my crown

You say you know what it's like to have this weight all up in my chest

I ain't never seen you struggle just to take another damn breath

Why you making all the fuss then try to turn around and break bread

I'll carry this weight, ain't nothin to it

Won't let you weigh me down

I took the weight that you just piled on, put all of it inside of my palm

It's nothing to me now

I've held the weight that you rely on and I'll be the one to

Carry the weight of the world, put it on me, put it on me

Forget all the things you've heard, I'm betting on me, I'm betting on me

Do you see why I feel this way?

Been carrying all this weight

I done sweat my blood and tears

Just put it on my shoulders imma hold it through the years

I know that I will be great

Just gotta fight through this hate

I ain't fell to the last straw yet

Imma carry all the weight of every world inside my chest
