Lyrics
This ain't shade, this is truth with a beat behind it
For every underrated queen that still rises
To all my ladies they side-eyed, lied on and counted out
This for the ones who stay pretty through the petty
Let them stare, let them speak
'Cause they loud, they wrong, and they still ain't me
They don't like how I walk in like I own the place
Still healing, still fly, still lace with grace
They tried to throw dirt but I grew from the mud
Now I'm too elevated for a grudge
They loud in the comments, quiet in real life
Mad 'cause I sparkle without tryna hype
They got cash but no peace, shoes but no ground
And every time I rise, they break down
You ever met a hater with no reason to hate?
They ain't got your path but they want your fate
It's giving bitter, it's giving pressed
It's giving wish I was her in a Sunday's best
They loud, they wrong, and they still ain't me
Tryna copy the glow but I do it effortlessly
They hate what they can't touch, can't break, can't be
Keep talking, babe, just boosting my feet
To every queen that they counted out
Stand up, head high, let's air it out
Let 'em talk, let 'em twist
But it's fact you're too chosen to coexist
They tried to dim me, now I light the room
I'm the headline, they the comment doom
Don't need a crew, I walk solo with ease
Every scar I got, baby, it came with keys
I'm realer than filters, deeper than lights
They flash, I shine, I been earned my stripes
So go 'head and whisper but say it with respect
'Cause every liar told just paid my check
They loud, they wrong, and they still ain't me
Tryna copy the vibe but it's VIP
They hate what they can't touch, can't break, can't see
I was built for this, watch me reign freely
To every queen that they threw shade at
We ain't shrinking, we clapping back
Let them talk, let them twist
But baby, I'm the proof that pressure hits
Money don't buy peace and status don't fix pain
That's why they miserable, spiteful and lame
You could give them the crown, they'd still feel small
'Cause what I got you can't fake at all
Loud, wrong and still ain't me
Keep watching while I stay unbothered and free
Every room I walk in, I own the scene
Can't cancel a queen that was born supreme
So if you ever been doubted, disrespected, unseen
Repeat after me
They ain't me, they ain't me, they ain't me
They ain't me
