Katy Perry Teases NEW Music With Clips From The Studio
New Katy Perry is incoming!
Oh, you will see me thrive
Can't write my story
I'm beyond the archetype
I won't just conform
No matter how you shake my core
'Cause my roots, they run deep, oh
Oh, ye of so little faith
Don't doubt it, don't doubt it
Victory is in my veins
I know it, I know it
And I will not negotiate
I'll fight it, I'll fight it
I will transform
When, when the fire's at my feet again
And the vultures all start circling
They're whispering, "you're out of time."
But still, I rise
This is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in; think again
Don't be surprised, I will still rise
I must stay conscious
Through the madness and chaos
So I call on my angels
They say...
Oh, ye of so little faith
Don't doubt it, don't doubt it
Victory is in your veins
You know it, you know it
And you will not negotiate
Just fight it, just fight it
And be transformed
'Cause when, when the fire's at my feet again
And the vultures all start circling
They're whispering, "you're out of time."
But still, I rise
This is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in; think again
Don't be surprised, I will still rise
Don't doubt it, don't doubt
Oh, oh, oh, oh
You know it, you know it
Still rise
Just fight it, just fight it
Don't be surprised, I will still rise
Katy Perry has teased new music with two sneak peeks at her time in the studio. You can even hear a teeny little bit of new music…
In the first of two clips, we can hear squelchy synths and Katy singing “don’t be scared to d-“. How do you think that lyric ends? With “die”? With “drown”? With “download my new album when it's out please I need the monies”? We’ll find out soon enough.
Katy had also coloured her tooth in with a sharpie, but it wouldn’t come off. Uh oh. The second clip shows someone jamming on a bass guitar and you can watch it all below:

Back in November, Katy took to Instagram to share her sadness at the US presidential election result, before hinting at new music, saying, “Hillary helped me see that we're all in this together, no matter where we come from, what colour we are, or what status and education we have or don't have.”
“Hillary lit a fire inside of me that burns brighter and brighter every day, and that fire will NEVER be put out,” Katy continued. “Feelings of despair still comes in waves, but now more than ever I am MOTIVATED to fight against social injustice and to promote equality and kindness as best I know how, through my art and influence.
Katy concluded her post by saying: “It's funny, sometimes people who disagree with me just say, "Shut up and sing." Boy, will I do so in a whole new way... next year. Hell hath no fury like a woman REBORN.”
