Madonna is no stranger to creating monster hits with the biggest names in music.

From Britney Spears and Nicki Minaj to Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, the "Vogue" singer knows how to make music magic during her collaborations.

Now, the 56-year-old is ready to climb the charts yet again with her new track featuring Nas.

Titled "Veni Vidi Vici," the song features the singer reflecting on some of her most memorable moments both on and off the stage. Listen to it here!

"I expressed myself, came like a virgin down the aisle / Exposed my naked ass, and I did it with a smile," she sings. "And when it came to sex, I knew I walked the borderline / And when I struck a pose, all the gay boys lost their mind." 

She continues, "I justified my love, I made you say your little prayer / Had me crucified, you know I had to take it there." Bring back a few memories, Madonna fans?

But through all her scandalous performances, stunts and song lyrics, Madonna believes she's the real winner.

"I came I saw I conquered," she repeatedly sings in the catchy chorus. Oh Madonna, always one to truly "Express Yourself."

The new track (which takes its name and chorus from a quote attributed to Julius Caesar) is featured on the upcoming Rebel Heart album, which has already had more than a few leaks. When the tracks surfaced online without her permission, Madonna couldn't help but share her disappointment.

"This is artistic rape!!" she wrote in an Instagram post that has since been deleted. "These are early leaked demo's half of which wont even make it on my album the other half have changed and evolved."

She added, "Thank you for not listening! Thank you for your loyalty!"

For what it's worth, we're totally feeling this new track. In fact, we can't wait for the full album coming March 10.
