Lost in the Lights
Nicki Minaj

[Verse 1]
I'm a star, but who needs a guide in this cosmic fight?
When every step I take feels like a spotlight bite,
Fame's a lover, but she’s a jealous spouse,
When all the glitter shines, but I'm lost in this house.

Chasing shadows of fame in my oversized heels,
Taking leaps of thought, but forget how it feels,
In a world full of mirrors, I’d rather be a ghost,
'Cause with fans and followers, I’m just Ben on a roast.

[Chorus]
Lost in the lights, but I’m still finding my way,
Dancing with doubt, but I’m here to slay,
Fame’s a fickle friend, always craving a play,
But watch me rise from these ashes, I’m not led astray.

[Verse 2]
These diamonds are a girl’s best friend, or so they say,
But I’d trade ‘em in for peace—now isn’t that cliché?
Pop culture’s a buffet, I’m just a chef with a twist,
Mixing puns with the fun, can’t let my humor get missed.

Selfies with a side of solitude, what’s the deal?
When likes don’t nourish, how's a girl supposed to heal?
In a world so loud, where whispering feels like crime,
I pen clever rhymes just to buy me some time.

[Chorus]
Lost in the lights, but I’m still finding my way,
Dancing with doubt, but I’m here to slay,
Fame’s a fickle friend, always craving a play,
But watch me rise from these ashes, I’m not led astray.

[Bridge]
These glamorous soirées, oh, they shine so bright,
But behind the velvet curtain, it’s a long lonely night,
Hearts getting heavy, like a drum on repeat,
While I’m searching for the rhythm buried in this heat.

[Verse 3]
Lost in the fame game, taking shots at my pride,
But I’m aiming for the stars, can't let darkness decide,
I’ve got tricks up my sleeve, magic within my veins,
Spitting quips like bullets while dodging the chains.

Call me a phoenix, always lifting my shroud,
‘Cause when the smoke clears, you’ll hear me loud,
Making waves with my words, like an ocean’s roar,
I may be lost in the lights, but I’m ready for more.

[Chorus]
Lost in the lights, but I’m still finding my way,
Dancing with doubt, but I’m here to slay,
Fame’s a fickle friend, always craving a play,
But watch me rise from these ashes, I’m not led astray.
