Fangs Ain't It a
Dark hip hop ballad with half-time boom bap swing and gothic orchestral lift; verse rides murky kick, snapped snare, and bass murmurs, pre-chorus strips to strings and a ticking hi-hat, chorus hits with choir swells, timpani, and chopped vocal stabs. Close-mic rapper with dry ad-libs, exaggerated echo throws on punchlines, whispered asides to the listener, and a dramatic string rise into the final hook. Bright, punchy low end with cinematic brass flare and comic tension., ballad, hip hop, orchestral

Lyrics
Verse 1
Yo, I met a queen by the crypt
Had a cape, had a grin, had a limp little drip
I said, "I'm smooth," but my knees said, "nah"
Hands shook like a phone in the rain at the bar
She said, "Big guy, why you look so pale?"
I said, "Baby, that's just my charm on sale"
She laughed, "You look scared of your own little teeth"
I said, "That's fair, I got stress in my cheeks"
I tried a pose, got stuck in the pose
Tripped on a step, tore the hem of my clothes
She leaned in close, said, "You okay, boo?"
I said, "Honestly? I don't know what to do"
Pre-Chorus
Listener, yo, tell me true
Do I act cool, or just fold in two?
Should I bite my lip, should I bite my pride?
Should I run, or stay by her side?
Chorus
Oh no, I'm a little vampire
She got me shaking like a broke-down liar
Oh no, I'm a little vampire
She smiled, and I caught that fire
(yo, what do I do?)
(what do I do?)
Verse 2
She said, "You a beast?" I said, "Girl, barely a ghost"
She smirked, "That's cute," then she toasted her toast
I asked, "You scared of the dark?" she said, "Not at all"
Then she tapped my chest like, "Stand up tall"
I said, "I got a whole lotta panic inside"
She said, "Then use that nervousness, turn it into style"
I tried to act tough, said, "I don't even flinch"
Then I saw a bug and I jumped like a glitch
She said, "Aw, baby, you flimsy but sweet"
I said, "That's the nicest insult I ever did eat"
Then I turned to the listener, "What should I say?"
Because my whole undead swagger just drifted away
Bridge
Strings rise
Hold up, hold up, don't laugh too hard
My coffin got feelings, my heart got scarred
She wants a monster, I'm a mess in a suit
But when she says my name, I almost recruit
Woman, say the word, am I doomed or blessed?
Can a weak little ghoul still pass her test?
She reached for my hand, said, "Come on, prove it"
I said, "Baby, if I do, I might lose it"
Chorus
Oh no, I'm a little vampire
She got me shaking like a broke-down liar
Oh no, I'm a little vampire
She smiled, and I caught that fire
(yo, what do I do?)
(what do I do?)
Outro
She said, "Relax, I like you scared"
I said, "Wait, for real?" she said, "Yeah, I'm there"
So I leaned in slow, tried to look so brave
Then fainted clean out like a silly little cave
Yo... if love is a curse, then I'm doing time
A wimpy little vampire, but she still says I'm fine
