taking the heat - Joy Oladokun

I know what it's like to think about everybody else

And wonder if anybody else is thinking 'bout me

I know what it's like to hold a weight

So deep in yourself

You wonder if anybody else could ever carry

The pain of it

The rage of what it takes to just be awake

Nobody ever wonders how the strong stay strong

They get what they want and then they move along

They never think twice about what could be

Does anybody wonder when the legends die young

If there's anything that we could have done

To stop a strong one from taking the heat

Know what it's like to keep it all in my head

Until my worries like a knife in my chest

Split me open while I'm lying in bed

What else am I gonna have to lose

What other magic tricks will I have to do

Until I finally have nothing to prove

The pain of it

The rage of what it takes to just be awake

Nobody ever wonders how the strong stay strong

They get what they want and then they move along

They never think twice about what could be

Does anybody wonder when the legends die young

If there's anything that we could have done

To stop a strong one from taking the heat

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh whoa

Oh oh oh oh

Ooh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

Nobody ever wonders how the strong stay strong

They get what they want and then they move along

They never think twice about what could be

Does anybody wonder when the legends die young

If there's anything that we could have done

To stop a strong one from taking the heat

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

Ooh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

To stop the strong one from taking the heat
