An Ode to the outspoken and fierce leader of Fillory from The Magicians series. From AVOWAL's upcoming EP, 'Feast of the Familiar', let us introduce you to the mighty High King Margo The Destroyer Creator:
"You can be one of the smart ones or even one of the pretty ones or even a strong one.
But...
Try to be all three...
You better learn to smile and shut up cause the second you're you, the second I'm loud, pissed off, it's
'What a bitch.'
'What a slut.'
'Who the fuck does she think she is?'
So you never give them a chance. You hit first. And anyone dumb enough to hit back soon finds that there's no hurting you, sheathed in all that hard, glossy armor." - Margo Hanson, High King of Fillory
lyrics
I'm not a princess
I'm a fucking High King
I'm not the little fantasy that you want me to play
Not here to mince words for your ego's sake
I've got what it takes to run this fucking place
No watered-down titles for Your Grace
I have the eye enough to see this through
I only stand to gain from all you have to lose
You're too fucked to improve
I'm gonna enjoy taking power from you
This world gave a lot to you
And this is what you chose to do?
This world gave a lot to you
And this is what you chose to do
Destroy this world and build it new
That's just what I'm going to do
I said
I'm a fucking High King!
The major difference between me and you
Lies in what I choose to use my crown to do
Yet here you are
Left to abuse
I'm gonna enjoy taking power from you
