[Verse 1]
Silk shirt, shade on, I glide through the room
You talk slick, I just smirk, sip my perfume
I don’t throw hands, I throw timing and truth
Serving clapbacks like a five-star menu (mmm-hmm)
[Pre-Chorus]
You think you’re clever, but I play it steady
Serving sweet with the salt — yeah, I’m skilled petty
Laughin’ low, but I’m three moves ahead
You still talkin’? I already said what I said (ohh!)
[Chorus]
I’m skilled petty, baby, write that down
Classy burn with a velvet crown (yeah!)
Dance through shade like it’s part of the show
You bring the drama, I bring the glow
Ooh, I’m skilled petty, don’t you forget it
Ahhh, got you heated—yeah, I let it
One little wink and you’re in a mess
Still lookin’ good while I leave the rest (whoo!)
---
[Verse 2]
Lip gloss poppin’, but don’t test my grace
I’ll kill ‘em with kindness—right to the face
You throw a jab, I’ll throw a toast
Smile so sweet while I do the most (mhmm!)
[Pre-Chorus]
You bring the fire, I bring finesse
Playin’ it cool in a hot pink dress
I don’t compete, I redirect
Turn your insult to my side effect (yeah, yeah!)
[Chorus]
I’m skilled petty, baby, write that down
Classy burn with a velvet crown
Dance through shade like it’s part of the show
You bring the drama, I bring the glow
Ooh, I’m skilled petty, don’t you forget it
Ahhh, got you heated—yeah, I let it
One little wink and you’re in a mess
Still lookin’ good while I leave the rest (ohh!)

[Bridge]
Snap like jazz, I don’t even stress
You play checkers—I’m playin’ chess (whoa!)
Style so sharp, you might need a vest
I’m sugar and spice, with a petty finesse (ahhh!)
---
[Final Chorus]
I’m skilled petty, watch me twirl
Queen of calm in a reckless world
I take the hate, turn it into gold
You throw shade, I turn bold
Ooh, I’m skilled petty, it’s an art
Ahhh, every word’s a work of heart
You bring chaos, I bring charm
Smilin’ sweet with the loudest arm (yeah!)
---
[Outro]
(Ohhh) Don’t get it twisted, I’m kind till I’m not
(Yeah-yeah) It’s all in the delivery, baby, watch
(Whoo!) Smooth and steady—yeah, you ain’t ready
Call it what you want... I call it skilled petty.
