There is a story untold Of a Queen once covered in gold Someone stole her riches And labeled her kind mistress She is subjected to servitude Suffering on the inside while on the outside called rude Her only survival was to remain subservient under the master's whip As she bore his children from her hip Her womb was poisoned by the oppressor's force Her dignity was stolen, she was labeled a whore Ripped away from her king Made to feel like less of a human being And through it all she still managed to remain strong Even though society told her that this was also wrong She turned fractions of gold into small kingdoms Giving her family what they needed Turned crumbs into meals Pain into laughter All under the whip of the master And she never rebuilt kingdoms that had long been lost Because after centuries, she forgot- That she was Queen Oh Queen, I'm here to remind you who you are Oh Queen, they took you so far From your kingdoms But now it's time to redeem them Let no man, beast or child tell you that you are anything less than royalty If they try to give you copper instead of gold, let them know that ain't for me Assume your rightful position on the throne If he can't treat you like a Queen, let him call Tyrone Tell the media to take the "Welfare" out of "Queen" Cause they done messed up the real meaning Of who you are and what you can be Tell 'em "BOW DOWN PEASANT" when they approach royalty You see- I know that I'm a Queen But that don't make me better than you That just rescues me from this psychological dungeon where they threw me And it renews me Knowing as a Queen I deserve nothing less than respect and dignity And I'm no longer gonna accept this mess they giving me And I can have all the power I so desire If I realize I am Queen and I am higher Than this second class they put me in I'm no longer going to pretend- That this don't bother me I'm no longer going to be- Your slave or servant you see I'm feeling a lot more like Queen Nefertiti And when you realize your power like I realize mine You start feeling a little bit more divine And this fake jewelry don't feel half as good As this gold embedded in my soul Put there by my Ancestors some long time ago In a time where we knew who we were and where we began And we ruled the land that we lived in And my Queen- Now we're so far far away And we've come so far far astray But remembering ourselves is the first path to redemption My Ancestors came to me to mention That you should stop begging peasants And taking orders from those who don't know your true worth That my child is how you uplift the curse Wipe away your tears and put on your crown And never ever ever ever let these fools get you down I promise you things wouldn't be as hard as they seem If you could just remember that you are Queen
