Crown on Velvet

# Royalty **[Verse 1]** To all the queens who've been fighting alone, You don't have to face it on your own. To all the girls who've had enough, Who learned real quick to play it tough. To all the kings who carry their swords, Who used to think they ruled the world, Better hold that weapon tight, 'Cause we're taking back the spotlight. **[Pre-Chorus]** Oh, isn't it funny? Isn't it strange? One little shift And everything's changed. **[Chorus]** Girls in the front, boys at the back, Funny how the world can change its track. You used to tell us where to stand, Now you're trying to understand. We're not angry, we're having fun, Look at us, we've already begun. Maybe you should get used to me— **It's royalty, baby.** **[Verse 2]** To every girl who bit her tongue, Every “good girl” who played along, You don't have to make yourself small Just because somebody told you so. And to the boys with something to prove, You can stay, you can dance, you can move. Nobody said you had to disappear, We're just not putting you first this year. **[Pre-Chorus]** Oh, isn't it funny? Look at the view. The world's getting bigger And smaller for you. **[Chorus]** Girls in the front, boys at the back, Funny how the world can change its track. You used to tell us where to stand, Now you're trying to understand. We're not angry, we're having fun, Look at us, we've already begun. Maybe you should get used to me— **It's royalty, baby.** **[Bridge]** Put down the ego, pick up the beat, You don't get a throne just for having feet. We don't need a crown, we don't need a name, We're just walking in and changing the game. And if you're wondering who's in charge, Don't worry, darling, we're not going far. We're only here to shake the room And leave a little space for you. **[Final Chorus]** Girls in the front, boys at the back, Look who's finally changing the track. You had the spotlight, had your say, Now we're gonna have our day. We're not angry, we're having fun, You can laugh when the joke is done. The world keeps turning, can't you see? **It's royalty, baby.** **[Outro]** Queens don't need permission. Girls don't need approval. And boys? You'll be alright. **It's royalty, baby.**
