You Should See Me in a Crown Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bite my tongue, bide my time
Wearing a warning sign
Wait 'til the world is mine
Visions I vandalize
Cold in my kingdom size
Fell for these ocean eyes

[Chorus]
You should see me in a crown
I'm gonna run this nothing town
Watch me make 'em bow
One by one by one
One by one by
You should see me in a crown
Your silence is my favorite sound
Watch me make 'em bow
One by one by one
One by one by one

[Verse 2]
Count my cards, watch them fall
Blood on a marble wall
I like the way they all
Scream
Tell me which one is worse
Living or dying first
Sleeping inside a hearse
I don't dream

You say
Come over baby
I think you're pretty
I'm okay
I'm not your baby
If you think I'm pretty

[Chorus]
You should see me in a crown
I'm gonna run this nothing town
Watch me make 'em bow
One by one by one
One by one by
You should see me in a crown
Your silence is my favorite sound
Watch me make 'em bow
One by one by one
One by one by one

[Chorus]
Crown
I'm gonna run this nothing town
Watch me make 'em bow
One by one by one
One by one by
You should see me in a crown
Your silence is my favorite sound
Watch me make 'em bow
One by one by one
One by one by one

Can someone tell me what is meant by:

"I'm not your baby If you think I'm pretty"?

@HerSoulPrerogative I think it's part of the context of the verse and the song as a whole.

Some entitled male is calling her over, saying Come here baby, i think you're pretty. Her response is, "I'm not your baby, If you think i'm pretty, You should see me in a crown."

I interpret that to mean, if you think i'm just a piece of meat for you to have your way with, you should see me when i'm so much more powerful than you could dream of.

@fyi She's turning a guy down.

"You say Come over baby I think you're pretty"

He's asking her out.

"I'm okay I'm not your baby"

She's saying she's good without.

"If you think I'm pretty...... you should see me in a crown"

But she's even better than he thinks.
