Empress (Calliope ver.) – Mori Calliope

ワタシは手違いで醜い鋳型(テンプレート)に流し込まれたみたい
化粧(デコレーション)じゃ隠せない生来の不出来さ

Remember the names？
A “sight for sore eyes,” as some might say
Ignored you, called you “ain’t no prize” back in those days
Looks are not “first place,” nope, but
‘cha more than just a “pretty face”
Poise and grace, poison snakes
Cut-throat race, cut the brakes
It’s gotta be the way ya carry yourself
So dissimilar to royalty’s hilarious wealth
Fiction spoiled me and you and we should bury ourselves
Or you can sneak atop a throne by honing Stylish Stealth！(uh-huh！)

So EMPRESS
心におわす
EMPRESS
どうかお与えください
EMPRESS…EMPRESS…EMPRESS…

Wake up, Empress in me！　さあ玉座を空けなさい
Show them all your far from just a diamond in the rough！
偽りでも　ほら背筋が伸びてきたでしょう？
灰から造ったこの王冠(ティアラ)
そろそろ誰が゛ホンモノ″なのか教えたげなくちゃ

Uh
Nobody tells you good head-space
is rarely for rent
I’m barely outta pocket,
and beauty spares no expense, okay？
No confidence, gotcha balancing up on a fence
To the left, lies that tempt
To your right？ Common sense.
Oki-doki, 起きて！Empress in me！
Calli in the mirror straight up not impressing me.
Day to day, it’s clearer I’ve made such a mess of me
Pressure be stressin’ me
Depression all there gets to be？？

I’m EMPRESS
心のまま
EMPRESS
美しくお在りなさい
EMPRESS…EMPRESS…EMPRESS…

Wake up, Empress in me！　ほら頭を垂れなさい
Show them why it’s time to learn there’s more than meets the eye！
蔓延ってる　あの市民権得た流行りの悪意(ヴィシャス)
ほっとけ涙がもったいないから
そろそろ誰が“ホンモノ”なのか教えたげなくちゃ

桜は己を美しいと自覚しているか？
蓮華は自分を可憐だと思い咲いているか？
もれなくこよなく魂を磨くこと
気高く濁らず　Viva！　世はまた苦し愉し

目覚めよEmpress in me！　さあ玉座を空けなさい
Show them all you’re far from just a diamond in the rough！
Empress in me！　もっと頭を垂れなさい
Show them why it’s time to learn there’s more than meets the eye！
偽りでも　ほら背筋が伸びてきたでしょう？
灰から造ったこの王冠(ティアラ)
そろそろ誰が“ホンモノ”なのか解らせてあげましょう　やさしく
It’s about time to reveal, it’s “The Me” that I knew was real
All along, something wrong？
Guess I’m gonna show you my appeal！

Oh Oh
Wake me up. Make me up.
Oh Oh
Wake me up. Oh Oh Make me up！

Wake me up.
