verse 1 One step forward and two steps back Nothing good ever comes easy I gave it all and got a knife in my back Should have known the ones I trusted would leave me They only see what they wanna see Heavy is the weight that I hold The weight that I hold I carry it cause it's all that I know This is all that I know Pressure on me Pressure to be True to who I am Heavy is the weight The weight that I hold verse 2 One life, one chance, it's all I have Wouldn't matter if the whole world hated me So I move on, forget the past And let 'em go back to thinkin' they made me They only see what they want to see Heavy is the weight that I hold The weight that I hold I carry it cause it's all that I know This is all that I know Pressure on me Pressure to be True to who I am Heavy is the weight The weight that I hold Interlude verse 3 Heavy is the weight I don't wanna wait For them all to be good When I wanna be great Yeah, I know about pressure Yeah, I know about stressin' Worried if I'll lose everything invested And I know about workin' when I'm hardly rested Like, am I in tune with what I'm destined for? Been carrying this weight for so long Didn't even notice that my back was so strong I can probably put a boat on it with no problem The show must go on Heavy is the weight that I hold The weight that I hold I carry it cause it's all that I know This is all that I know Pressure on me Pressure to be True to who I am Heavy is the weight The weight that I hold End Chorus Heavy is the weight that I hold The weight that I hold I carry it cause it's all that I know This is all that I know Pressure on me Pressure to be True to who I am Heavy is the weight Heavy is the weight The weight that I hold
