Mori Calliope
Mori Calliope - Empress (Calliope ver.)
[Intro]
Watashi wa techigai de minikui tenpureeto ni nagashikomareta mitai
Dekoreeshon ja kakusenai seirai no fudeki sa

[Verse 1]
Remember the name, it's a sight for sore eyes, as some might say
Ignored you, called you 'ain't no prize' back in those days
Looks are not first place, nope, but you're more than just a pretty face
Poison grace, poison snakes, cut the race, cut the brakes
It's gotta be the way you carry yourself
So dissimilar to royalty it's hilarious, well
Fiction spoiled me and you, we should bury ourselves
So you could sneak atop a throne by honing stylish stealth

[Pre-Chorus]
So, empress!
Kokoro ni owasu
Empress!
Douka wo atae kudasai
Empress, empress
Empress
Empress, empress
Empress

[Chorus]
Wake up, empress in me!
Saa gyokuza wo akenasai
Show them all you're far from just a diamond in the rough
Itsuwari demo hora sesuji ga nobitekita desho?
Hai kara tsukutta kono tiara
[Post-Chorus]
Sorosoro dare ga honmono nano ka
Oshiete agenakucha

[Verse 2]
Nobody tells you good head space is rarely for rent
I'm barely out of pocket, and beauty spares no expense, okay?
No confidence got you balancing upon a fence
To the left lies attempt, and to your right, common sense
Oh! Okey-dokey, okite! empress in me
Calli in the mirror straight up not impressing me
Day to day it's clear I've made such a mess of me
Pressure be stressing me, depression all there gets to be

[Pre-Chorus]
So empress!
Kokoro no mama
Empress!
Utsukushiku wo arinasai
Empress, empress
Empress
Empress, empress
Empress!

[Chorus]
Wake up, empress in me!
Hora koube wo tarenasai
Show them why it's time to learn there's more than meets the eye
Habikotteru ano shiminken eta hayari no Vicious
Hottoke namida ga mottainai kara
[Post-Chorus]
Sorosoro dare ga honmono nano ka
Oshiete agenakucha

[Bridge]
Sakura wa onore o utsukushii to jikaku shite iru ka?
Renge wa jibun o karen da to omoi saite iru ka?
Morenaku koyonaku tamashii o migaku koto
Kedakaku nigorazu Viva! yo wa mata kurushi tanoshi

[Chorus]
Mezame yo! empress in me!
Saa gyokuza wo akenasai
Show them all you're far from just a diamond in the rough
Empress in me
Motto koube wo tarenasai
Show them why it's time to learn there's more than meets the eye
Itsuwari demo hora sesuji ga nobitekita desho?
Hai kara tsukutta kono tiara

[Post-Chorus]
Sorosoro dare ga honmono nano ka
Wakarasete agemashou yasashiku
It's about time to reveal, it's the me that I knew was real all along
Something wrong? Guess I'm gonna show you my appeal!
[Outro]
Uh oh!
Wake me up, make me up
Uh oh!
Wake me up, make me up!
Wake me up!
