Yo, that bird's voice be dead raw,
He croaks like he needs some hardcore jam,
But still, his message gives me pause,
Evil whispers, grabbin' me like a solid grip.

Come, thick night, cloak me in shadows so tight,
My wicked intentions concealed from sight.
I'll be the baddest queen, unstoppable and thuggish,
Killin' kings for power, no one gonna judge it.

Hold up, hold up! These thoughts be twisted,
But ambition calls, can't resist it.
