[Verse 1]
Red rope
Part like scripture
I glide in slow
Whole squad in the picture (uh)
Fur on my shoulders
Laugh loud, it’s a fixture
Every eye on the crown
‘Til I finally see him in the mixture
[Verse 2]
Tailored jacket
Cufflinks catching sparks
Low fade, clean watch
Quiet storm in the dark
He ain’t reach for his phone
He just sipped in the glow
Did a half-smile, side-step
Like he owned the whole floor
[Chorus]
Velvet ropes and loafers, baby
You look like old money, new crazy
I’m a queen in a room full of maybes
But you move like you already saved me
Button-down blessing, top-tier
I’m lost in that collar right here
Velvet ropes and loafers, baby
I fell for the way that you wear it so easy (so easy)
[Verse 3]
Best man speech
Got him out on the floor
Birthday boy wild
Spinning drinks, wanting more
But you stayed on the edge
Tie loosened, eyes calm
Then the bass hit once
You slid in, open palm (come here)
[Verse 4]
Whispered, “You famous?”
I laughed, “On my block”
He said, “I push numbers
You push hearts off the top”
We twirled through the tables
Like they all disappeared
Gold ring, crisp crease
Every detail screamed “yeah, I’m here”
[Chorus]
Velvet ropes and loafers, baby
You look like old money, new crazy
I’m a queen in a room full of maybes
But you move like you already saved me
Button-down blessing, top-tier
I’m lost in that collar right here
Velvet ropes and loafers, baby
I fell for the way that you wear it so easy (so easy)
[Bridge]
I got crowns in the car
He got stocks in his phone
Worlds never should’vecrossed
But they danced on their own (on their own)
In that dim club glow
Where the rich blend with stars
A hip-hop queen found heaven
In a suit at the bar
[EDM tunes]
[Chorus]
Velvet ropes and loafers, baby
You look like old money, new crazy
I’m a queen in a room full of maybes
But you move like you already saved me
Button-down blessing, top-tier
I’m lost in that collar right here
Velvet ropes and loafers, baby
I fell for the way that you wear it so easy (so easy, so easy)
