 Lyrics: 
 
 I knew you were 
 
 You were gonna come to me 
 
 And here you are 
 
 But you better choose carefully 
 
 ‘Cause I am capable of anything 
 
 Of anything and everything 
 
 Make me your Aphrodite 
 
 Make me your one and only 
 
 But don’t make me your enemy 
 
 Your enemy, your enemy 
 
 
 
 (Pre-Chorus) 
 
 So you wanna play with magic 
 
 Boy, you should know what you’re fallin’ for 
 
 Baby, do you dare to do this 
 
 ‘Cause I’m coming atcha like a dark horse 
 
 
 
 (Chorus) 
 
 Are you ready for, ready for 
 
 A perfect storm, perfect storm 
 
 ‘Cause once you’re mine, once you’re mine 
 
 There’s no going back 
 
 
 
 Mark my words 
 
 This love will make you levitate 
 
 Like a bird 
 
 Like a bird without a cage 
 
 But down to earth 
 
 If you choose to walk away 
 
 Don’t walk away 
 
 It’s in the palm of your hand now, baby 
 
 It’s a yes or a no, no maybe 
 
 So just be sure 
 
 Before you give it all to me 
 
 All to me 
 
 Give it all to me 
 
 
 
 (Pre-Chorus) 
 
 So you wanna play with magic 
 
 Boy, you should know what you’re fallin’ for 
 
 Baby, do you dare to do this 
 
 ‘Cause I’m coming atcha like a dark horse 
 
 
 
 (Chorus) 
 
 Are you ready for, ready for 
 
 A perfect storm, perfect storm 
 
 ‘Cause once you’re mine, once you’re mine 
 
 There’s no going back 
 
 
 
 (Juicy J) 
 
 She’s a beast 
 
 I call her Karma 
 
 She’ll eat your heart out 
 
 Like Jeffrey Dahmer 
 
 
 
 Be careful 
 
 Try not to lead her on 
 
 Shorty heart is on steroids 
 
 ‘Cause her love is so strong 
 
 
 
 You may fall in love when you meet her 
 
 If you get the chance, you better keep her 
 
 She’s sweet as pie, but if you break her heart 
 
 She’ll turn cold as a freezer 
 
 
 
 That fairy tale ending with a knight in shining armor 
 
 She can be my Sleeping Beauty 
 
 I’m gon’ put her in a coma 
 
 
 
 Now I think I love her 
 
 Shorty so bad, sprung and I don’t care 
 
 She ride me like a roller coaster 
 
 Turned the bedroom into a fair 
 
 
 
 Her love is like a drug 
 
 I was tryna hit it and quit it 
 
 But lil’ mama so dope 
 
 I messed around and got addicted 
 
 
 
 (Pre-Chorus) 
 
 So you wanna play with magic 
 
 Boy, you should know what you’re fallin’ for 
 
 Baby, do you dare to do this 
 
 ‘Cause I’m coming atcha like a dark horse 
 
 
 
 (Chorus) 
 
 Are you ready for, ready for 
 
 A perfect storm, perfect storm 
 
 ‘Cause once you’re mine, once you’re mine 
 
 There’s no going back

 Ironic: One time Gospel singer Katy Perry is being sued by a Christian rapper. 
 
 Hip-hop artist Flame is alleging that Katy stole is 2008 rap/gospel song “Joyful Noise” to create “Dark Horse.” 
 
 The rapper and his producers are seeking damages for Perry’s alleged use of their Grammy-nominated track for her first single released from Prism, filing the suit in Michigan federal court this week. 
 
 The lawsuit states, “By any measure, the devoutly religious message of ‘Joyful Noise’ has been irreparably tarnished by its association with the witchcraft, paganism, black magic and Illuminati imagery evoked by the same music in ‘Dark Horse.'” 
 
 As you may recall, Katy’s controversial music video for the song lead to a petition, signed by more than 60,000 people, asking for the alleged use ot offensive religious imagery to be removed. 
 
 You can watch the two videos below and decide for yourself:
– First Katy Perry's "Dark Horse" angered Muslims; now it's drawn the ire of a Christian rapper. Flame and his producers this week filed suit against Perry, claiming she stole his 2008 song, "Joyful Noise," Celebuzz reports—and, as if that's not bad enough, the lawsuit claims "the devoutly religious message" of the song "has been irreparably tarnished by its association with the witchcraft, paganism, black magic, and Illuminati imagery evoked by the same music in 'Dark Horse.'" Compare for yourself here and here, or check out why Muslims were also unhappy with the religious imagery in Perry's song.
