Oh, I'm the villain now?
Fine
I'll play the part
Used to bend, used to break, used to apologize
For taking up space, for the fire in my eyes
You wrote the story, painted me in black
Now I'm done defending, there's no going back
They want a monster? I'll give them what they need
Crown of thorns and a heart that doesn't bleed
Every accusation, every pointed finger
Made me sharper, made me a killer
You pushed me to the edge
Now watch me rule from it
No more second-guessing
No more counterfeit
Welcome to my villain era
Black dress, red lips, I'm the terror
You wrote the story, but I'm rewriting the ending
No more pretending, no more bending
This is my villain era
Throne made of everything they said would break me
Crown heavy but it fits, can't shake me
If I'm the villain in your story
Then baby, watch me take the glory
Villain era
Can't stop me now
Villain era
I'm taking my bow
Mirror mirror, who's the bad guy here?
The one who fought back or the one who lived in fear?
They called me difficult, cold, too much
Turns out my only crime was refusing their touch
On my narrative, on my destiny
I'm done shrinking down to make them breathe easily
So I'll wear this label like designer on my skin
If loving myself is a sin, then let me sin
You pushed me to the edge
Now watch me rule from it
No more second-guessing
This is my perfect fit
Welcome to my villain era
Black dress, red lips, I'm the terror
You wrote the story, but I'm rewriting the ending
No more pretending, no more bending
This is my villain era
Throne made of everything they said would break me
Crown heavy but it fits, can't shake me
If I'm the villain in your story
Then baby, watch me take the glory
You wanted me silent, compliant, invisible
Sorry, that version of me is not relivable
Built this empire from your criticism
Every stone you threw became my prism
Breaking light into a thousand colors
While you're still stuck seeing in black and white, lover
This villain's got depth you can't comprehend
And I'm just getting started, this is not the end
I'm not the villain
I'm just finally free
Not the villain
I'm just finally me!
Welcome to my villain era
Black dress, red lips, I'm the terror
You wrote the story, but I'm rewriting the ending
No more pretending, no more bending
This is my villain era
Throne made of everything they said would break me
Crown heavy but it fits, can't shake me
If I'm the villain in your story
Then baby, watch me take the glory
They wanted a villain?
I gave them a queen
Villain era, villain era
This is my villain era
