North West is releasing a snippet of a new song — and this one seems to be in reference to her dermal piercings.
The 12-year-old daughter of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian posted a clip of a new song on her Instagram Stories that was a collaboration with her rapper dad. The track, which was titled "Piercing on My Hand (Ye Version)," appeared to be commenting on the public outrage over North's two dermal piercings.
"Piercing on my hand, the other holding bands," North rapped in the song. "No friends, just filter, you wouldn’t understand."
"Went to school for two days, then I got banned/Skipping school, yeah, I do it on the daily," she continued later in the track. "Got some new rings, yeah, they’re so crazy."
"All my friends are hits, you know I’m not lazy/You’re so angry that I’m so mainstream," rapped North. "I’m not sure I’m crazy/I want more piercings and tats/I love blue hair put it in some plaits/Put the music to the max/I want like a hundred thousand racks."

North West Debuts New Dermal Piercing
Back in September, North was photographed walking in Rome, Italy, with Kardashian, debuting a dermal piercing. Also known as microdermal piercings or single-point piercings, dermal piercings lie flat against the skin and don't have a separate entry and exit point, per Byrdie.
Fans were quick to criticize Kardashian for letting North get the piercing, with many saying that the tween is too young for a dermal piercing, which some say can be more painful and prone to infection than other types of piercings.
However, since debuting the piercing, North has been vocal in defending the fashion choice.
On Nov. 11, a TikTok user, @mazzy_williams, posted a video with overlay text reading, “north west getting a finger piercing is breaking my heart just me?” to which North and Kardashian responded, “it’s okay 🫶” via their joint account.
North then doubled down on her accessory alone, posting a TikTok on Dec. 9 with a clear message. "This is for everyone that's mad over a finger piercing," she wrote while also mouthing to an audio that said, "Why are you crying? How old are you? Just pull it together."

Then early this month, North shared that she'd gotten a second dermal piercing on her finger. In a photo shared to her Instagram Stories on Jan. 13, the tween showed off what appeared to be another piercing, joining the other one she has on her middle finger.
North could be seen wearing a blue wig and an all-black outfit, including a Balenciaga T-shirt, pleated skirt and her giant Alex Moss New York diamond skull chain that she received from her mom on Christmas. She also debuted her new jewelry on TikTok, filming a video that showed off her studs and metallic manicure.
