Crying Wolf in a Crown.

[Verse 1]
You said you were broken,
But I saw the glue on your hands.
You cried like a martyr,
While drawing your battle plans.
Played the crowd like a preacher,
With tears that never fell.
But behind every whisper,
Was a scream you wouldn’t tell.

[Pre-Chorus]
You wore pain like perfume,
Strong enough to hide the truth.
But I saw the shadow move
When you walked into the room...

[Chorus]
You’re crying wolf in a crown,
While the world gathers 'round.
Waving scars like a flag,
As you drag them all down.
Oh the victim’s got claws,
And a mask made of grace —
You’re the bully in lace,
The devil in a holy place.

[Verse 2]
You sat on your story,
Like a throne carved in fear.
Spun gold from your sadness,
Till the liars came near.
Now you're queen of the helpless,
But no one sees the play,
You're just shifting the blame
As you push them away.

[Pre-Chorus]
You wrote your pain in bold,
But skipped your part in the sin.
And no one dares to ask
Where your truth might’ve been...

[Chorus]
You’re crying wolf in a crown,
While the world gathers 'round.
Waving scars like a flag,
As you drag them all down.
Oh the victim’s got claws,
And a smile on their face —
You're the wolf in silk grace,
A fraud in a sacred space.

[Bridge – Spoken Word Over Music]
It’s the oldest trick in the book:
Turn the blade, then scream “look!”
Innocence sells like gold,
And guilt?
Guilt gets told
By the one who shouts first —
Not the one who bleeds worst.

[Final Chorus]
You're crying wolf in a crown,
But your lies weigh you down.
Truth is lighter than shame —
And it’s calling your name.
Yeah the victim can kill,
With a tale they rehearse...
The hero in reverse,
Casting love as a curse.

[Outro]
So wear your wounds with pride,
But remember this sound —
Even wolves that hide,
Get hunted down.
