LIPSTICK LIKE WARPAINT

VERSE 1]

I line my lips like I draw the line

You think I’m pretty? Good — now back in line

Don’t mistake this gloss for grace

There’s venom in this pretty face

I wear heels like armor, red like rage

Every step I take rewrites the page

You wanted sweet — now taste the blade

Of every word you said in vain

⸻

Lipstick like warpaint, heels like guns

Smile so sharp, I don’t have to run

You play dirty? I play queen

I built this throne out of gasoline

Bat my lashes, light the match

Strike my name, I strike right back

You wanted fire wrapped in lace

Now watch me burn with perfect grace

⸻

Mirror says I’m dressed to kill

So I smile like I mean it — still

You see soft, I see control

Pretty is the new power role

You call it vain, I call it war

Every coat a closing door

You taught me fear — I learned to slay

And now you watch me walk away

⸻

Lipstick like warpaint, heels like guns

Smile so sharp, I don’t have to run

You talk tough? I talk last

Turned every scar into a mask

Strike the pose, hold the flame

You’ll never paint me tame again

I’m not your girl, I’m the parade

Of every storm you ever made

⸻

Kiss me goodbye — I’ll leave the stain

Lipstick like warpaint in the rain
