PRODUCTION NOTES (target arrangement & sound)
- Tempo: 104 BPM. Key: F# minor (dark + bright top notes).
- "Tosta" elements: punchy 808 low-end, sharp clanging snare, synth brass stabs, glossy K-pop pads, bright pluck arps, trap hi-hat rolls, aggressive transient kicks.
- Breakdance section: half-time feel + tempo-bump moment (drop to 52 BPM feel for 18s), then snap back to 104 BPM. Call-and-response vocal stabs during the break.
- Vocal direction: female lead with powerful high acuti on the ends of pre-chorus and final chorus. Place ad-lib runs after each chorus (8–12 note melisma opportunities). Rap density: Verse 1 = 16 bars (dense flows, double-time triplets in places), Verse 2 = 12 bars (punchy, story beat). Use layered backing harmonies on choruses and Korean ad-libs.

LYRICS (clear sections)
[Intro 00:00–00:07]
(Punchy 808, brass stab, glossy pad swell)
Yeah — The Queen in the room
불꽃처럼 타올라 (불꽃 — 불타)
[Verse 1 — Rap (16 bars) 00:07–00:35]
(Flow: tight, aggressive; double-time moments)
Step up, spotlights cut through the smoke,
Crowds whisper my name but I don't choke.
Heartbeat like a siren, city on my back,
I lace chrome promises then I attack.
Mirror on the wall, I break it with a grin,
Shards flash like trophies of where I've been.
No handouts, just midnight neon and grit,
I built my throne out of every 'no' that they spit.
(End Verse — land into pre)
[Pre-Chorus — Vocals 00:35–00:47]
(12s — sustain last line high)
달려가 내 꿈을 향해, higher, higher
모두가 날 봐, 내 이름을 불러 (call my name)
I'm the queen — never gonna bow down — (SUSTAIN HIGH: hold "down" for 4s)
[high acuti placement: sustain "down" up to a soaring A4–C#5 depending on vocalist]

I'm the queen, crown on me
Burn the sky — can't stop me

Say my name, shake the scene
I'm the queen, crown on me
Burn the sky — can't stop me
불꽃처럼 타올라 (불타 — 불타)
