Alpha

## Audio

**"Alpha"** is the second single off of Chrissy Chlapecka's upcoming project. It was released on April 28, 2023, through Bimbo Inc. and distributed through Vydia.

The song's title is simply teasing and reclaiming the stereotypical, masculine mindset of being an "alpha male," modernly popularized and redefined by social media personality Andrew Tate to justify misogyny. The lyrics primarily call out men who shame her in public but also ask for sexual favors in private.

## Background

On April 1, 2023 Chrissy posted a photo onto instagram with the beginning of the song to tease that “something is coming…” the picture had two slides and the second one was that picture of Andrew Tate looking shocked, which Chrissy apologized for in the comments saying “Sorry for the jump scare… you’ll understand later… 🦮”.

Before the release of the song, Chrissy announced that it would be played at Purgatory, a club in Brooklyn, on April 21st with an instagram post on April 7, 2023. In the caption she censored the title with the release date just being in April.

On April 16 she officially announced her second single, "Alpha", to be released April 28, 2023 with a video snippet of the song, in the video Chrissy said that the song is for the men in her comment section.

## Lyrics

**[Verse 1]**

There’s something that you lack, feel under attack

So, you play the blame game, isn’t it a damn shame?

Leader of the pack, sulking in the back

I’m just doing me so why the fragile ego?

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I know in your little head you’re a big tough man

You know how to talk the talk online with all your friends

**[Chorus]**

But in real life you’d be on your knees

You’d be begging and pleading me just for one private meeting, you want it

"Top dog", put you on a leash

I’ll have you muzzled and caged, I’ll put you right in your place, you want it

**[Post-Chorus]**

While I’m running with the big boys

You’re just playing with a chew toy

Tryna scare me but it’s just noise

All bark and no bite

Makes you mad, the way I flaunt it

I can tell you’re feeling taunted

It’s depressing if I’m honest

You don’t cross my mind

**[Verse 2]**

All you do is think about me, boy, you haven’t crossed my mind

You just hate me 'cause you want it, yeah, you’re on my page all night

You’ve got all your little theories that explain your empty life

Have you ever just considered you’re a really shitty guy?

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I know in your little head you’re a big tough man

You know how to talk the talk online with all your friends

**[Chorus]**

But in real life you’d be on your knees

You’d be begging and pleading me just for one private meeting, you want it

"Top dog", put you on a leash

I’ll have you muzzled and caged, I’ll put you right in your place, you want it

**[Post-Chorus]**

While I’m running with the big boys

You’re just playing with a chew toy

Tryna scare me but it’s just noise

All bark and no bite

Makes you mad, the way I flaunt it

I can tell you’re feeling taunted

It’s depressing if I’m honest

You don’t cross my mind

**[Bridge]**

Keep sayin' how you’re in the matrix all 'cause you know you can’t date this

Yeah, you’re here crying to your mommy 'cause I’m doing amazing

It’s just a little ironic, you say "fuck you" in my comments

But in my DMs you keep begging to fuck me (that’s embarrassing)

**[Chorus]**

'Cause in real life you’d be on your knees

You’d be begging and pleading me just for one private meeting, you want it

"Top dog", put you on a leash

I’ll have you muzzled and caged, I’ll put you right in your place, you want it

**[Post-Chorus]**

While I’m running with the big boys

You’re just playing with a chew toy

Tryna scare me but it’s just noise

All bark and no bite

Makes you mad, the way I flaunt it

I can tell you’re feeling taunted

It’s depressing if I’m honest

You don’t cross my mind
