Intro
(Spoken softly, almost a whisper with echo)
"I’ll give credit where it’s due… but don’t expect me to cheer for the obvious."
Verse 1
I see you swimmin’, just like a fish in the sea,
Movin’ through the water, but that ain’t impressin’ me.
Everybody breathes, everybody moves,
Don’t need a medal just for provin’ the groove.
I’m on a level where the real ones stand,
No time for fake, no time for the bland.
You ain’t earned the crown just by showing up,
I’m built from storms, you just floatin’ in cups.
Chorus
No applause for the obvious,
I’m grindin’, risin’, and it’s glorious.
If you wanna get noticed, gotta prove more,
I’m the queen, baby, this ain’t no encore.
No applause for the obvious,
I’m the real deal, they call me notorious.
I don’t praise the simple, I respect the true,
If it ain’t rare, then it don’t get through.
Verse 2
Talk is cheap but my moves costly,
Built an empire where they thought it was impossible.
I don’t play the game just to be seen,
I break the rules, rewrite the routine.
I’m the heat in the winter, the fire in the rain,
You just a breeze, barely feelin’ the pain.
So when you show up, better bring your best,
‘Cause I don’t settle for less than success.
Chorus
No applause for the obvious,
I’m grindin’, risin’, and it’s glorious.
If you wanna get noticed, gotta prove more,
I’m the queen, baby, this ain’t no encore.
No applause for the obvious,
I’m the real deal, they call me notorious.
I don’t praise the simple, I respect the true,
If it ain’t rare, then it don’t get through.
Verse 3 (Bridge-style)
I’m talkin’ real, not the surface skim,
Dive deep, baby, this ain’t just a whim.
If you ain’t riskin’, if you ain’t bold,
Don’t expect my story to be retold.
Outro
(Soft, powerful, fading)
"I’ll give credit where it’s due... but I ain’t givin’ out crowns for swimmin’.
