queen

Don't you know that you're a queen? Oh

Oh

Don't you know that you're a queen? Oh

Shine on 'em

Don't waste your time on 'em

We don't cry in the field, we show 'em how we feel, then up yo' dime on 'em

Rock steady, we climb on 'em

Turn water into wine on 'em

It's by His grace that we in this race, so keep yo' mind on Him

No chops on the face card

In the field like you base god

Run up the score, open the door, just keep yo pace, God

You somebody trust, somebody crush, somebody's faith, God

So go set yo' tone and wake it up in the morning and do it again

Bet my next move, uh

Is a dance to the best groove, uh

We don't care what the rest do, uh

We reside where the best do, uh

No matter how you made it out

A legacy girl, or you swam through a drought

This yo song, show the world what you 'bout

It's all about, uh

The diva living on the couch, Granny with the switch

The lady with the Grammys, and the nannies, and the whips

The one on the block, the one on the strip

Adina from the Swats, Meka from St. Kitts

And the next RnB chick

The girl with the lens, and the film, and the script

Save yo' money and fund your own shit

They can't break what they ain't equip, look

I was couch to couch, pillar to post

Now I sit courtside, doing the most

Ballin' is life, and it's nothing but net

And I ain't met a check that I wanna trade yet

Build your own brick by brick

Always be grateful, always be quick

Don't take handouts, support your clique

And leave that lover if they ain't 'bout shit

Shoutout to the ladies at Feather n' Fin

All my girls doing time in the pen

Chopsticks on the block, get yo' yen

Speaking from the heart, I am not without sin

I used keep it all in my sock

Now I sell a different kinda rock

Roll with me

Now I bring the pot on the yacht

Undock from Woodstock, straight to the top

Princess Anne to the Boulevard

Summa cum laude to the Navy yard

Raleigh, Gun Hill, Park Slope, Fayetteville, go hard

This one's for them girls in the shelters

AKAs and them Deltas

Cashiers at the Food Lion, all that matters is you trying

So keep it up, queen

Don't you know that you're a queen? Oh

Shine on 'em

But don't fall in line on 'em

Run that meeting, write that treatment, this yo' time on 'em

Coach that team, sew that seam, put it all on the line on 'em

Get money all the time on 'em

And elevate yo' mind on 'em, stay kind on 'em

But don't go third eye blind on 'em, uh
