[Intro – whispered, distorted]
Tick-tock, queens don’t watch clocks
They break them, wear the pieces like a crown of thorns
Yeah… lights out.
[Verse 1 – sultry vocals]
Mirror on the wall, who’s the realest of them all?
Lipstick sharp enough to cut your ego in half
Diamonds on my neck, but the ice is in my heart
I was born in the dark, now I own every star
[Pre-Chorus – layered harmonies]
Bow down, bow down, kiss the ring or get buried
Six-inch heels stepping over every lie you ever told me
You wanted smoke? Here’s a wildfire
Watch me burn the throne and build a bigger empire
[Chorus – explosive vocals + ad-libs]
Girls run this world, yeah we run it bloody red
Heels on their necks while we count this bread
Haters talking shit? Let ‘em choke on my name
I’m the storm, I’m the flame, I’m the end of your game
(Fuck you, pay me)
Girls run this world, watch us paint it jet black
Middle finger to the sky, no, we never look back
Say my name like a prayer, then run and hide
I’m the queen, I’m the reaper, I decide who survives
[Rap Verse – fast-flow, venomous]
Yo, I’m the glitch in your system, the virus you can’t delete
Built a kingdom on the graves of every man who tried to leash me
Talk is cheap, but my silence costs a fortune
Your whole career’s a rental, mine’s a permanent distortion
Crown too heavy? Bitch I bench-press galaxies
Your fave’s a footnote, I’m the whole damn bibliography
Keep my enemies close—stitched inside my Saint Laurent
So every time I walk, I hear their broken dreams crunch
[Bridge – half-sung, half-spoken, echoing]
You wanted a villain? Here’s your nightmare in couture
Red bottom soles leaving prints on your future
I don’t break hearts, I collect them in jars
Label them “lessons” and sell ‘em on the black market, haha
[Final Chorus – bigger, darker, choir of distorted voices]
Girls run this world, yeah we run it bloody red
Angels fear to tread where demon queens have bled
Haters wanna talk? Let ‘em gag on my dust
I’m the first and the last, everything you wish you was
(Fuck you, pay me)
Girls run this world, watch the heavens fall black
Lucifer’s a fangirl, even he wants my snapback
Kneel or get dragged, either way you’re mine
I’m the alpha, omega, and every second in between time
[Outro – cold laugh into silence]
Tick-tock… time’s up.
Crown of thorns never looked so good
