(dark pop, smoky, dangerous, confident, glittering rage)
Verse 1
You thought I’d crumble when you slammed the door,
Left my heart bleeding on your marble floor.
But look at me now—draped in black and gold,
Colder than the truth you never told.
I don’t break, I sharpen on the pain,
Turn every cut into a diamond chain.
You made a monster out of all your lies,
Now she’s the one you’ll see when you close your eyes.
Pre-Chorus
You taught me how to play this game,
You lit the match, I fed the flame.
Don’t act surprised when the fire bites—
You were the one who taught me fight.
Chorus
I got venom in velvet,
Sweet as sin, you can’t help it.
You built the cage, now watch me rise—
A phoenix with a darker side.
I’m the storm you never wanted,
The ghost you made, the girl you haunted.
You made a queen from what you shattered—
Now bow down, baby—
I’m the one that mattered.
Verse 2
I walk in rooms you swear I’d hide away from,
Head high like I already won.
Your name tastes bitter but I spit it clean,
Washed you out like a ghost in a silver screen.
You tried to paint me as the villain,
Guess what? I look good in crimson.
You lit the fuse and thought I’d freeze—
Now I’m the bomb dropped at your feet.
Pre-Chorus
You taught me how to play this game,
You lit the match, I fed the flame.
Don’t act surprised when the fire bites—
You were the one who taught me fight.
Chorus
I got venom in velvet,
Sweet as sin, you can’t help it.
You built the cage, now watch me rise—
A phoenix with a darker side.
I’m the storm you never wanted,
The ghost you made, the girl you haunted.
You made a queen from what you shattered—
Now bow down, baby—
I’m the one that mattered.
Bridge (icy, powerful, whisper-then-growl)
Here’s the part you never saw:
You pushed, I learned to break your laws.
You aimed to ruin, I aimed higher—
You struck a match, I lit an empire.
Now every whisper of my name
Sets your fragile world aflame.
Congratulations—your creation
Is your sweetest devastation.
Final Chorus
Venom in velvet,
And you can’t help it.
You built the cage—now watch me rise,
The crown looks good with sharpened pride.
I’m the storm you never wanted,
The ghost you made, the girl you haunted.
You made a queen from what you shattered—
Now bow down, baby—
I’m the one that mattered.
