(Intro)
(Ay, yeah) You thought I’d stay down? Hah.
(Ay, yeah) Now watch this.
(Verse 1)
Came in low, now they all look shook (pause)
Turned their jokes to a brand-new book (pause)
Dress got wrecked, but I flipped that scene (pause)
Now I drip silk, now I reign supreme (pause)
Tried to play me? Nah, not today (pause)
Turned that hate to gold, paved my way (pause)
Walked through fire, still stood tall (pause)
Now they mad, now they stall (pause)
(Pre-Chorus)
Hold up—step back—know your place (pause)
Talk slick—can’t match my pace (pause)
Thought I’d break? Nah—big mistake (pause)
Watch me rise—watch you shake (pause)
(Chorus)
Step up—step wrong—you fumble (pause)
Came for me? Now you crumble (pause)
Tried to stop? Nah, too late (pause)
Now I’m here—own my fate (pause)
(Verse 2)
Took my name, tried to make it a joke (pause)
Now I’m top floor, now you choke (pause)
Dress fell apart? Thought I’d hide? (pause)
Came back sharper, whole crew by my side (pause)
They whispered, they plotted, they thought I’d break (pause)
Now they just watch while I levitate (pause)
Eyes on me when I hit that floor (pause)
Made their laughs turn to roars (pause)
(Pre-Chorus)
Hold up—step back—know your place (pause)
Talk slick—can’t match my pace (pause)
Thought I’d break? Nah—big mistake (pause)
Watch me rise—watch you shake (pause)
(Chorus)
Step up—step wrong—you fumble (pause)
Came for me? Now you crumble (pause)
Tried to stop? Nah, too late (pause)
Now I’m here—own my fate (pause)
(Bridge)
Yeah, yeah—look at me now (pause)
Queen on the throne, wear the crown (pause)
Made my own path, no one gave (pause)
Took the hits, still I stayed (pause)
(Outro)
Yeah. Thought you won? Think twice.
Y’all wrote jokes? I wrote my life.
Turned my pain into my stage.
I don’t fall—I rise.
