Taking Back my Throne

(Intro)
(Slow piano, soft vocals)
You were so good to me...
Thought I found my peace, thought I found my home.
Should’ve known it was too good to be true.
(Beat kicks in - bass-heavy)
Yeah... I know better now.

(Verse 1)
You told me I was everything you wanted
Said you loved me, made me feel so safe
Then the honeymoon phase wore off, honey
And I started seeing through your fake disguise
A whole other world you were hiding
Built a wall I could never tear down
Just a map of lies that I was riding
Till I caught you when you weren't around.

(Chorus)
You tried the D-A-R-V-O to make me question my mind
Turn it on me, leave my sanity behind
But I knew better, boy, I knew better
I held my boundaries, I didn't break or bend
You couldn't give me the cold hard facts
So call me crazy, call it the end

(LOOP)
Yeah, I held you accountable, now just leave me be
I’m a queen who wears the crown, I’m taking back my throne.

(Verse 2)
Kept changing up your words, trying to rewrite it
Calling your deception a "misunderstanding"
I’ve grown from my past, I don’t need to fight it
I know my worth, I know where I’m landing
You’re just another lesson I had to learn
Instead of the man I thought I’d live for
Watch your own lies, baby, feel the burn
I’m standing firm, I don’t want you anymore

(Chorus)
You tried the D-A-R-V-O to make me question my mind
Turn it on me, leave my sanity behind
But I knew better, boy, I knew better
I held my boundaries, I didn't break or bend
You couldn't give me the cold hard facts
So call me crazy, call it the end

(LOOP)
Yeah, I held you accountable, now just leave me be
I’m a queen who wears the crown, I’m taking back my throne.

(Bridge / Drop Beat)
(Heavy bass, trap-influenced drums, confident vocal tone)
Go on and meet your next victim...

(Pause)
Because I’m no clown.
I see through the disguise, yeah I cut you down.
Try to make me feel small?
Nah, I stand tall.
I held you accountable, that’s why you’re mad.
Best thing that I ever had...
Was the power to leave.
(Spoken) I'm better off on my own.

(Outro / Chorus)
(Full energy)
Yeah, I knew better, boy, I knew better
I held my boundaries, I didn't break or bend
You couldn't give me the cold hard facts
So call me crazy, call it the end

(LOOP)
Yeah, I held you accountable, now just leave me be
I’m a queen who wears the crown, I’m taking back my throne.

(Slowly fading)
Taking back my throne...
I'm no clown...
Yeah, I'm better off alone.
