[Intro] I looked beyond the tower Where the morning opened wide And I finally understood No crown can hold the sky [Verse] I used to measure heaven By the height of what I owned I thought the world was waiting For my name upon the stone But the mountains didn’t need me And the rivers didn’t care The sun rose without permission Like a promise in the air [Pre-Chorus] All my life I tried to capture Every star that passed me by But the truth came down like thunder No crown can hold the sky [Chorus] No crown can hold the sky No throne can own the light No king can chain the sunrise No pride can stop the night I was born to stand, not rule To love, not turn my heart to steel Now I’m free and I know why No crown can hold the sky [Verse] I walked through open country With no banners in my hands For the first time in forever I could breathe and understand There is power in the quiet There is grace in letting go There is strength beyond the armor That the wounded come to know [Pre-Chorus] All my life I tried to capture Every star that passed me by But the truth came down like thunder No crown can hold the sky [Chorus] No crown can hold the sky No throne can own the light No king can chain the sunrise No pride can stop the night I was born to stand, not rule To love, not turn my heart to steel Now I’m free and I know why No crown can hold the sky [Instrumental] Guitars open like the horizon Drums roll wide like a road unbound The melody climbs without a ceiling Like a heart no longer weighed down [Bridge] I don’t need the world to kneel I don’t need the angels’ praise I don’t need a golden story To survive my darker days I just need the road before me And the courage not to lie I just need this endless morning No crown can hold the sky [Breakdown] No crown No chain No fear No claim No throne No lie No crown can hold the sky [Build-up] Let the old flags disappear Let the new day draw me near I am small and I am whole With the sky inside my soul [Chorus] No crown can hold the sky No throne can own the light No king can chain the sunrise No pride can stop the night I was born to stand, not rule To love, not turn my heart to steel Now I’m free and I know why No crown can hold the sky [Chorus] No crown can hold the sky No wall can stop the dawn No shame can own tomorrow No fall can prove I’m gone I was born to bend and heal To break and still be real Now I’m free and I know why No crown can hold the sky [Outro] I looked beyond the tower Where the morning opened wide And I finally understood No crown can hold the sky
