[Intro]
Yeah
All that old shit dead
(You hear me?)
Kiss the ring?
Bitch, please
[Verse 1]
Used to move silent in the back room
Gold plates, black suits, full tattoos
Kneel, kiss rings, keep that pact glued
Blood on the hands, hush when the boss moves
They taught me fear like a family recipe
Serve it on a plate with a side of jealousy
"Girl, sit pretty, guard the legacy"
I burned the cookbook, that ain’t destiny
[Chorus]
I broke the code and I broke that crown
Walked off the throne, left it face down
I’m a bad bitch, built my own empire now
No fake love, that old order tapped out
Strength ain’t born from a bloody vow
It comes from being real as I am right now
Let the old world fall, let the glass rain down
I wear my scars like a shattered crown
[Verse 2]
[Rapped]
Fuck your oath, fuck your old man rules
Made men shook when a made woman moves
Y’all prayed loyalty, preached that doom
But you’d sell your soul for a corner office view
You hid your lies in Italian suits
I hid my heart in designer boots
But heels got heavy with the weight of truth
So I kicked that door, turned Friday loose
No more dinners with the white tablecloth threats
No more “princess, keep your pretty mouth in check”
My name on the deed, my face on the check
If you coming for the queen, better come correct (bitch)
[Chorus]
I broke the code and I broke that crown
Walked off the throne, left it face down
I’m a bad bitch, built my own empire now
No fake love, that old order tapped out
Strength ain’t born from a bloody vow
It comes from being real as I am right now
Let the old world fall, let the glass rain down
I wear my scars like a shattered crown
[Bridge]
You want a daughter or a soldier?
You want a body or a soul here?
I’m done playing saint for your sins
If real means alone, then I’ll win
Toast to the end of the old regime
Raise that glass to a brutal dream
I’m the curse and I’m the cure, redeemed
I’m the boss of the brand-new scene (yeah)
[Chorus]
I broke the code and I broke that crown
Walked off the throne, left it face down
I’m a bad bitch, built my own empire now
No fake love, that old order tapped out
Strength ain’t born from a bloody vow
It comes from being real as I am right now
Let the old world fall, let the glass rain down
I wear my scars like a shattered crown (shattered crown)
I wear my name like a shattered crown (bad bitch now)
