Lyrics

I feel the room when I cross that line
Boot heels clicking like it's showtime
Eyes build a case before I speak
I let 'em look, yeah, I like the heat
I know the power in the way I stand
Know what I'm holding in the palm of my hand
They think they're hunting, but I'm aware
I don't mind the stare--I put it there

I ain't confused, I ain't misled
I know exactly what I said

I like the charge, I like the buzz
Like being wanted 'cause I decide who does
You can pass judgment, whisper my name
I don't plead guilty, I play the game
You don't get custody, don't cross that line
But I enjoy the look when the eyes do time
I'm not on trial, I'm the evidence
And I love the way they lose their innocence

They call it trouble, I call it fun
A slow-burn stare and a loaded tongue
I let 'em wonder, let 'em assume
I hold the verdict, I seal the room
Hands stay clean, but the tension's loud
I work the bar like a witness stand
I don't need saving, don't need defense
I consent to the consequence

Every move noted, every glance
Filed away as circumstance

I like the charge, I like the flame
Like being wanted without the shame
You can object, but I overrule
I break your focus, I bend the rules
You don't get custody, don't cross that line
But I enjoy the look when the eyes do time
I'm not on trial, I'm the evidence
And I love the way they lose their innocence

No warrant for my touch tonight
But I might let you read me right
I set the terms, I hold the key
This court only answers to me

I like the charge, I like control
Like being wanted but owning my soul
Let the record show, let it be known
I shine brightest when I stand alone
I'm not your sentence, not your sin
I decide how far you get to get in
I'm my own verdict, no defense
And I savor every second of the tension
