Intro
Yeah, yeah, ah — watch the throne, watch the smoke
(skrrt, ayy) Uh, uh, hey
Verse
Alex on the timeline like a cameo, cameo (cameo)
Talk big in group chats but fold at the cameo
All flash, no follow-through, cameo, fake free throw
You toss a rumor like confetti, watch it slow, watch it blow
Got a public profile, private practice in the small lie
Name in my mouth just to taste how cheap it goes, ha
You sell a version of yourself like bargain-bin applause
But when the lights get heavy you flip the feed off
You claim you built it up, but you rented every brick
Borrowed lines, bought likes, counterfeit the kick
Try to talk street, but your shoes still got tags
Two-faced like a coin with a glossy drag
You call it confidence, I call it a costume fit
Wake up, Alex, the mirror's hosting a witness, yeah
You’re a highlight reel with all the sound muted (mute)
Act like you climb mountains but you’re stuck on the footstep
Say you’re the future while you live through clicks and claims
I write the receipts, you just reorder names
You whisper loud, say a lot without meaning (say it)
Punchlines hit soft like a mattress — no feeling
I’m the invoice to your hype, balance due and overdue
All your followers are guests, I’m the crew breaking through
You’re a puzzle with pieces that don’t even match
A talk show guest wearing a mismatched patch
Keep talking big, keep playing small-time games
I’m the season change — you’re just the same name
Pre-chorus
Watch me take a breath and change the weather (change)
You built a paper castle, watch its corners sever (yeah)
Say my name like a challenge, actin’ clever (actin’)
I’ll turn your chorus into silent measures, uh
Chorus
Alex, Alex, all show, no spine (all show, no spine)
Alex, Alex, rented crown, rented time (rented time)
Alex, Alex, loud mouth, cheap lines (cheap lines)
Alex, Alex, watch me write the real shine (real shine)
Alex, Alex, all show, no spine (all show, no spine)
Alex, Alex, rented crown, rented time (rented time)
Alex, Alex, loud mouth, cheap lines (cheap lines)
Alex, Alex, watch me write the real shine (real shine)
Verse
You name-drop futures like a prophecy on layaway
I read receipts, yours say "seen" with nothing paid, hey
You ghost at gatherings, pop up in highlight reels
A cameo of courage — thirty-second deals
You’re allergic to work, but you got a daily grind flex
Borrowed pep talk, rented mentors, thrift-store specs
You clap for yourself, then wonder why no echo comes
Crowd’s quiet when the meter runs out, hum hum
I spot your cracks like a map to counterfeit cash
You flash a smile, it’s the cover on a mismatch
Look, Alex, charisma’s not a heater you can borrow
It ain’t a costume — it’s the promise that you follow
You call yourself a storm but you barely whistle
I call the bluff, the cards fall, watch 'em fizzle
You’re a headline with no substance, trending slow
I’m the footno
