What have I even done? Why you acting like you lost the crown If you were never wearing one? Falling ever deeper, dealing cards now Now you can't recognize yourself on the deck I thought I was your queen of hearts But all the aces stole the check A prince, a prince A glorious game A prince, a prince Checkmate 'til you stole me away verse 2: Jorja Smith Cursing words, am I a pauper now? Even though all my shoes do fit Won't even let me leave the house past 12 I ain't no fairytale chick Happy endings cloud your head now You have put your expectations too high Sit on the bed, tears running down our eyes Once upon a time, I wonder why A prince, a prince A glorious game A prince, a prince Checkmate 'til you stole me away verse 3: Maverick Sabre Darling hold on a second You know that your eyes and your smile are a weapon Now come here, why won't you just listen? You tell me I'm hurting your arm with my grip See now trust me, but never trust women Yeah they're perfect, I'm at home stressed With this skunk spliff When I know that you're out on the road being faithless Does it make sense? And my insecurities don't pay rent But they're living with me And this is a disease We live in a man's world so what you expect me to be? Now, now, now Whether it's the shit sex or this limp dick My reflection keeps telling me sick things You know that I'm ugly I hope that you want me, I'll make sure you love me A prince, a prince A glorious game A prince, a prince Checkmate 'til you stole me away Outro: Maverick Sabre No I've never been a prince, no, no And I tried to be a king, oh Lord Said I've never been a prince, no, no And I tried to be a king, but I let you down, my queen Oh you let me down, my king
