If you still don't believe that I can restore myself under your crown
Then watch me as I decapitate this serpent head of vanity.
I used to be wary of you
Now I'll make your skin crawl at the thought of me
You once thought me a fool
But titles change so easily.
As you'll see now
Who's the fool and who is king
Who's dying and who's triumphing
You'll learn your lesson from a monster once defied by none
And now I'm finally able to say you all share this common trait
Her heart was cold long before her eyes made her stone
You'll see
They'll tell this story for ages to come
She didn't see me hovering above her like the halo she abandoned
Likewise I never laid eyes on the scales of her skin
My dexterity terrified her
I charmed the blood right out of her neck
And while her body collapsed to the floor
I grabbed a hold of her head
Held it up
Dripping
To it's own reflection
And forced her to behold her internal demon
My battle cry will always echo in her death rattle
And now I'm finally able to say you all share this common trait
Her heart was cold long before her eyes made her stone
You'll see
They'll tell this story for ages to come
As I left
You seemed so certain that I would falter
But you mistook my confidence for pride
I never boast of bloodshed unless I have the heads to prove my slaughter
And with her once writhing skull in my grasp at long last
And with her wretched, glaring visage burned into my shield
And with the knowledge that I'm stronger than you'll ever be
It's time to regain my throne
I'll cut a crown of serpents from her hair to replace the one you used to wear
