Verse 1
They crowned you king of the cardboard throne,
A legend printed on a megaphone.
You shout your truth like a scripted line,
But every word you sell is factory‑designed.
Pre‑Chorus
You call it power — I call it spin,
A hollow empire built paper‑thin.
Chorus
Power hoax — you wear it like a badge,
But the shine rubs off when the lights unmask.
Power hoax — a kingdom of pretend,
You rise on lies that crack in the end.
Verse 2
You flex your might in a mirrored room,
Chasing your shadow like it’s your doom.
You claim control with a plastic grin,
But the cracks show through your mannequin skin.
Pre‑Chorus
You call it strength — I call it fear,
A trembling voice dressed up as severe.
Chorus
Power hoax — you wear it like a badge,
But the shine rubs off when the lights unmask.
Power hoax — a kingdom of pretend,
You rise on lies that crack in the end.
Bridge
Pull back the curtain, expose the stage,
Watch the myth collapse under its own weight.
If truth’s a threat to your authority,
Then your throne was built on insecurity.
Final Chorus
Power hoax — the costume’s wearing thin,
The crowd sees through the act you’re in.
Power hoax — the downfall’s poetic,
A self‑made myth turned apologetic.
