Balance (Mufasa Interlude) lyrics - James Earl Jones

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance
You need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures
From the crawling ant to the leaping antelope
We're all connected in the great circle of life

Bigger lyrics - Beyonce (feat. RAYE)

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

If you feel insignificant
You better think again
Better wake up because
You're part of something way bigger
You're part of something way bigger
Not just a speck in the universe
Not just some words in a bible verse
You are the living word
Ah, you're part of something way bigger
Bigger than you, bigger than we
Bigger than the picture they framed us to see
But now we see it
And it ain't no secret, no

Understand that truth about that question in your soul
Look up, don't look down, then watch the answers unfold
Life is your birthright, they hid that in the fine print
Uh, take the pen and rewrite it
Step out your estimate
Step in your essence and know that you're excellent
Rise (Rise), the spirit is teachin'
No, I'm not just preachin', I'm takin' my own advice

Let Mama let you know (Let you know)
Mama's still tryin'
I can't get no days off
I don't get no days off
Truly, I'm feelin' it
I had to say that thing twice (Twice)
Tryin' to be a good wife
Still really hard, I can't lie
But I promised you I would fight, so I fight
If you're feelin' frustrated and (Oh)
You're sinkin', I'm jumpin' in (Oh)
Forgiveness is key because
We're fightin' something way bigger
You'll never lose, we are winners
I'll be the roots, you'll be the tree
Pass on the fruit that was given to me
Legacy, ah
We're part of something way bigger

(Yeah) Bigger
You're part of something way bigger
Bigger than you, bigger than we
Bigger than the picture they framed us to see
Legacy, oh
You're part of something way bigger

Let love be the water
I pour into you and you pour into me
There ain't no drought here
Bloom into our actual powers
I'll be your sanctuary
You just don't know it yet
You just don't know it yet
No matter how hard it gets
You got my blood in ya
And you're gonna rise

You're part of something way bigger
You're part of something way bigger
Bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than the picture they paint us to be, yeah
Ooh, ooh, ooh
You're part of something way bigger

Understand that truth about that question in your soul (Bigger)
Look up, don't look down, then watch the answers unfold (Bigger)
Life is your birthright, they hid that in the fine print (Bigger)
Take the pen and rewrite it
Step out your estimate
Step in your essence and know that you're excellent
Rise, the spirit is teachin'
No, I'm not just preachin', I'm takin' my own advice

If you feel insignificant
You better think again
Better wake up because
You're part of something way bigger
You're part of something way bigger
I'll be the roots, you'll be the tree
Pass on the fruit that was given to me
Legacy, ah
We're part of something way bigger

The Stars (Mufasa Interlude) lyrics - James Earl Jones

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

(Rikirobo roborebe)
Let me tell you something my father told me
(Mamasibo robirebi rebi)
Look at the stars
(Skindanu dinda dundun)
The great kings of the past look down on us from those stars
(Sibirobo roborebe
Oroboskibo robi rebirebi)
So whenever you feel alone, just remember
Those kings will always be up there to guide you
(Skidin dadun dadun daya)
And so will I

Find Your Way Back lyrics - Beyonce

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

Daddy used to take me walkin' down the street
Daddy used to take my hand, say, "Follow me"
Daddy used to lead me back home all the time
I got big enough to run around, Daddy left me outside

He said, "Find your way back
Big, big world, but you got it, baby
Find your way back
Don't let this life drive you crazy
Find your way back
Come back home 'fore the street lights on
Find your way back
Find your way back"

Daddy used to tell me, "Look up at the stars
It's been a long time, but remember who you are
Circle of life, and one day, I might not make it
Circle of life, and one day, I might not make it"

"But you just gotta find your way back
Big, big world, but you got it, baby
Find your way back
Don't let this life drive you crazy
Find your way back
Come back home 'fore the street lights on
Find your way back
Find your way back"

Daddy used to teach me all my moves
Runnin' 'round wild, had to tie my shoes
Itty bitty child with a smile like you
Wild, wild child, look a lot like you
Daddy used to teach me all my tricks
Runnin' 'round wild, had to get my fix
Daddy used to teach me all my plays
On a marathon, have to run my race

"Find your way back
Big, big world, but you got it, baby
Find your way back
Don't let this life drive you crazy
Find your way back
Come back home 'fore the street lights on
Find your way back
Find your way back, yeah"

Rikirobo roborebe

Daddy used to teach me all my moves
Runnin' 'round wild, had to tie my shoes
Itty bitty child with a smile like you
Wild, wild child, look a lot like you
Daddy used to teach me all my tricks
Runnin' 'round wild, had to get my fix
Daddy used to teach me all my plays
On a marathon, told me run my race

Find your way back

Nile lyrics - Beyonce & Kendrick Lamar

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

One time, I took a swim in the Nile
I swam the whole way, I didn't turn around
Man, I swear
It made me relax when I came down
I felt liberated like free birds, I'm stimulated now
Plunging away 'less my body's on top
All of these currents might cost me my life right now
When danger finds me, it follows with tides
Many miles ahead of me, still I'm in stride
She said

Hey little buddy, where you goin'?
I'm not sure, but I know I'm still in motion
This ain't regular, I seen regular
These streams may take me out to the ocean

Told myself if I dive in it without precaution of a life-jacket
Then I'll dive in it 'til I am exhausted and I'm type lacking
Waistline on four deep, senses on four deep
Feel like there's four me

One time, I took a swim in the Nile (One time, I took in a swim in the Nile; one time)
I swam the whole way, I didn't turn around
Man, I swear (I swear, I swear)
It made me relax when I came down (When I came down)
I felt liberated like free birds, I'm stimulated now (Stimulated)
Plunging away 'less my body's on top (Stimulated, stimulated now; On top)
All of these currents might cost me my life right now (Right now, right now)
Where danger finds me, it follows with tides (Follows with tides; stimulated right now)
Many miles ahead of me, still I'm in stride
That's some good

Got the Nile running through my body
Look at my natural, I'm so exotic
Darker the berry, sweeter the fruit
Deeper the wounded, deeper the roots
Nubian doused in brown, I'm lounging in it
Fountain of Youth, I said I'm drowning in it

I'm in the Nile, deep in denial
I'm in the Nile, deep in denial
That's some good

New Lesson (Timon, Pumbaa & Young Simba Interlude) lyrics - Billy Eichner, Seth Rogan & Jd Mccrary

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

Who are you?

I'm Pumbaa, this is Timon

Look, kid
Bad things happen, and you can't do anything about it, right?

Right

Wrong!
When the world turns its back on you, you turn your back on the world

Only embrace what's next

And turn the "what" into "so what?"

Well, that's not what I was taught

Well then maybe you need a new lesson
Repeat after me, kid
Hakuna Matata

Mood 4 Eva lyrics - Beyonce, Jay-Z & Childish Gambino

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

Miiri man ɲi!
Aa! Dennin! k'an bɛn sɔgɔma!
Miiri man ɲi!
Aa! Dennin! k'an bɛn sɔgɔma!
Aa! Dennin! k'an bɛn sɔgɔma!
Aa! Dennin! k'an bɛn sɔgɔma!

I know my enemy prey on me, so pray for me
Tick, tick, wait on it
I'm keepin' down my body count
I'm finessin' like a trap bounce, a trap bounce, yeah
'Cause every day above ground is a blessing
I done leveled up, now my view panoramic
None of my fears can go where I'm headed
Had to cut 'em loose, now I'm loose, break the levee, yeah
I'm 'bout to flood on 'em, flood on a sinner
The rain and thunder gon' pour
Go Mutumbo, no, no sinner
You can't dim my light

'Cause when we walk up in the club
I need them sirens goin' off
Then we can look up in the sky
The tears we cry let us know that we alive, yeah, yeah
It give me goosebumps every time
I threw up my diamond
Together, we're big-timin'
Don't make me have to remind you

I got my cup up to the heavens
Another night I won't remember
Promise this my mood forever
I promise this my mood forever and ever
Treasures dancin' on the bezel
This kinda feelin' unforgettable
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever

Forever and ever
You heard that?
Forever and ever
That's the sound of the price goin' up

Forever, and ever-ever, and ever-ever (Yeah, yeah)
At the Saxon Madiba suite (Yeah, yeah) like Mandela
Bumpin' Fela on the Puma jet, like we from Lagos (My daughter)
Mansa Musa reincarnated, we on our levels (He 'bout business)
That's a billi', a thousand milli' (Ugh)
First one to see a B out these housing buildings
I be feelin' like Prince in '84 (Ow)
Mike in '79, Biggie in '97, '94 Nas
Ali bomaye, no kumbaya
Just give me the Sommelier (I got it), I'm on La Tâche
Helmet on the jet ski, you know the vibes
Hit my head, figured out me (I love it)
Oh my God, without the God in the XY (Yeah, yeah)
I'm afraid the whole game will be colonized (Yeah, yeah)
The marathon will be televised for N.I.P. (Aww yeah)
'Cause true kings don't die, we multiply, peace

I'm so unbothered, I'm so unbothered
Y'all be so pressed while I'm raisin' daughters
Sons of empires, y'all make me chuckle
Stay in your struggle, crystal blue water
Piña colada-in', you stay Ramada Inn
My baby father, bloodline Rwanda
Why would you try me? Why would you bother?
I am Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter
I am the Nala, sister of Naruba
Oshun, Queen Sheba, I am the mother
Ankh on my gold chain, ice on my whole chain
I be like soul food, I am a whole mood

When we walk up in the club
I need the sirens goin' off
And when you look up to the sky
The tears we cry let us know that we alive, yeah, yeah
I give 'em goosebumps every time
I throw up my diamond
Together, we're big-timin'
The children are our reminder

I got my cup up to the heavens
Another night I won't remember
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever and ever
Treasures dancin' on the bezel
This kinda feelin' unforgettable
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever

Forever and ever
Ever, forever
Forever and ever
Ever and ever and ever
Time to break it down now

All praise due
My enemies still pressed
Cannot lose
'Cause I bet on myself
I'm dancin'
Ancestors in my step
Now, I move better, ooh
Energy pourin' out
I feel a change comin' now
Royalty in my blood from the kingdom
The more money, more problems season
But don't you let that get you out your way
Rise up higher
Jump, jump and don't look down
You're so far from the ground
Yeah, yeah-eh-eh-eh

I got my cup up to the heavens
Another night I won't remember
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever and ever
Treasures dancin' on the bezel
This kinda feelin' unforgettable
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever
Forever and ever

Brown Skin Girl lyrics - Beyonce, SAINt JHN & Wizkid (feat. Blue Ivy Carter)

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

Brown skin girl
Your skin just like pearls
The best thing in the world
I'd never trade you for anybody else, singing
Brown skin girl
Your skin just like pearls
The best thing in the world
I'd never trade you for anybody else, singing

She said she really grew up poor like me
Don't believe in nothing but the Almighty
Just a little jeans and a pure white tee
She never dream for ever be nobody wifey, yeah
She Wilhelmina pretty, but she heart is a maze
Play ya like a villain 'cause she caught in a wave
Tonight, I am walking away
Nine-to-five mind, on the grind, yeah, yeah

Tonight, I might fall in love
Depending on how you hold me
I'm glad that I'm calming down
Can't let no one come control me
Keep dancing and call it love
She fights it, but falling slowly
If ever you are in doubt
Remember what mama told me

Brown skin girl
Ya skin just like pearls
Your back against the world
I'd never trade you for anybody else, say
Brown skin girl
Ya skin just like pearls
The best thing inna di world
I'd never trade you for anybody else, say

Pose like a trophy when Naomi's walking
She need an Oscar for that pretty dark skin
Pretty like Lupita when the cameras close in
Drip broke the levee when my Kellys roll in
I think tonight, she might braid her braids
Melanin too dark to throw her shade (Shade)
She minds her business and wines her waist
Gold like 24K, okay

Tonight, I might fall in love
Depending on how you hold me
I'm glad that I'm calming down
Can't let no one come control me
Keep dancing and call it love
She fights it, but falling slowly
If ever you are in doubt
Remember what mama told me

Brown skin girl
Ya skin just like pearls
Your back against the world
I'd never trade you for anybody else, say
Brown skin girl
Ya skin just like pearls
The best thing inna di world (The best about the world)
I'd never trade you for anybody else, say

Oh, have you looked in the mirror lately? (Lately)
Wish you could trade eyes with me 'cause (Oh)
There's complexities in complexion
But your skin, it glow like diamonds
Pigment like the earth, you be giving birth
To everything alive, baby, know your worth
I love everything about you, from your nappy curls
To every single curve, your body natural
Same skin that was broken
Be the same skin taking over
Most things out of focus view
But when you're in the room, they notice you (Notice you)
'Cause you're beautiful
Yeah, you're beautiful

Them men, them gon' fall in love (In love)
With you and all of your glory (Glory)
Your skin is not only dark (Only)
It shines and it tells your story (Story)
Keep dancing, they can't control you (Ah)
They watching, they all adore you
If ever you are in doubt
Remember what mama told you

Brown skin girl (Brown skin girl)
Ya skin just like pearls (Brown skin girl)

Remember (Mufasa Interlude) lyrics - James Earl Jones

As king, I was most proud of one thing
Having you as my son
I never left you
I never will
Remember who you are
Remember

Otherside lyrics - Beyonce

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

If the storm comes
If we burn up
If the wells run dry
You're my reason
To believe in
Another life

If it all ends
And it's over
If the sky falls fire
Best believe me
You will see me
On the other side

If we wake up
Lose our patience
Or even lose our lives, oh
I'll feel lucky
To say that you've been
A friend of mine

Best believe me
You will see me
On the other side

My Power lyrics - Tierra Whack, Beyonce & Moonchild Sanelly (feat. Nija, Yemi Alade & Busiswa)

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow (Boma, boma yé)

I was always in the lead
Who you wanna be? I'm who they wanna be
B-E-A-U-T-Y-E, never seen so much rage from a queen
Rage from a queen, queen so strong, thought she was a machine
Girl of your dreams, Synclaire, Regine
Turned to the max, can't forget Maxine
Refer to me as a goddess, I'm tired of being modest
A hundred degrees, the hottest, if we being honest
Ebony and ebonics, black people win
They say we being demonic, angel in disguise
I hate I have to disguise it, why you gotta despise it?
Rich in the mind, that's why I'm making deposits
Carry all the power, it's time to realize it
(They'll never, ever take my power)

They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow
They feel a way, oh wow
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way (Hold up), oh wow (Boma, boma yé, wow, wow, wow)
They feel a way (Woo), oh wow (Boma, boma yé, wow, wow, wow)

This that rhythm, this that lightning
This that burn, this ain't no perm
This that nappy, this that herb
This that kinfolk, this that skinfolk
This that war, this that bloodline
On the frontline, ready for war
Where you gon' run?
I'ma get loose, get loose, get low, get low
Oh yeah, get loose, get loose, get low, get low
Oh-oh-oh, gotta protect my grace
Keep it locked in the safe
Don't make me get back to my ways
My power, they'll never take

They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow (Wow, wow, wow, wow)
They feel a way (Woo), oh wow (Wow, wow)
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power (Power), my power, my power

Give me one good reason why I shouldn't rip you apart

Scar lyrics - 070 Shake & Jessie Reyez

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

[070 Shake:]
I wonder how it, how it went so wrong
It's been so dark, yeah, I wanna say my last goodbyes
And I'll be gone for good
Left you guys behind, now I'm so lonely, so lonely, ooh

[Jessie Reyez:]
In the jungle, ain't no bible
Showtime, showtime, no recital
Show no fear, boy, where's your spinal?
Where's your backbone? Where's your pyro?
I had to be everything you couldn't be for my survival
My own idol, skipped my trial
Took my rightful, rightful title
No remorse, the sin is final
I found all my own disciples
I'm too far gone, downward spiral
No white angels, just albinos
Check my eyes, man, they're all white, man
Roll them back now, where'd the light go?
Guess it died, so cold like Cairo
Crack my neck back like I'm the chiro

[Jessie Reyez & 070 Shake:]
I want your world at my feet
I want your world at my feet
I've waited too long for this
I've waited too long for this
I want them to bow down to me
I want your world at my feet
I waited too long for this
I need this like oxygen

[070 Shake:]
Sorry, sorry
My whole family, I
Slayed you, betrayed you
Don't you grow to be like me
I wanna sink into the darkest sea
Darkest sea, eeh, ooh

[Ariowa Irosogie:]
Hebe, Usuthu, Hebe, Usuthu
Hebe, Usuthu, Hebe, Usuthu

I'm Home (Mufasa, Sarabi & Simba Interlude) lyrics - James Earl Jones, Alfre Woodard & Donald Glover

The king's time as ruler rises and falls like the sun

One day, Simba, the sun will set on my time here and will rise with you as the new king

Spirit lyrics - Beyonce

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

Uishi kwa muda mrefu mfalme
(Uishi kwa uishi kwa)
Uishi kwa muda mrefu mfalme
(Uishi kwa, uishi kwa)

Yeah, yeah, and the wind is talking
Yeah, yeah, for the very first time
With a melody that pulls you towards it
Painting pictures of paradise

Saying rise up
To the light in the sky, yeah
Watch the light lift your heart up
Burn your flame through the night, whoa

Spirit, watch the heavens open (Open)
Yeah
Spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah

Yeah, yeah, and the water's crashing
Trying to keep your head up high
While you're trembling, that's when the magic happens
And the stars gather by, by your side

Saying rise up
To the light in the sky, yeah
Let the light lift your heart up
Burn your flame through the night, yeah

Spirit, watch the heavens open (Open)
Yeah
Spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah

Your destiny is coming close
Stand up and fight

So go into that far off land
And be one with the great "I Am", "I Am"
A boy becomes a man, whoa

Spirit, watch the heavens open (Open)
Yeah
Spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah
Spirit, yeah, watch the heavens open, open
Yeah
Spirit, spirit, can you hear it calling? (Calling)
Yeah

Your destiny is coming close
Stand up and fight

So go into a far off land
And be one with the great "I Am"

BLACK PARADE lyrics - Beyonce

(from "The Lion King: The Gift" soundtrack)

I'm going back to the South
I'm going back, back, back, back
Where my roots ain't watered down
Growing, growing like a Baobab tree
Of life on fertile ground, my ancestors put me on game
Ankh charm on gold chains, with my Oshun energy, oh
Drip all on me, woo, Ankara Dashiki print
Hold up, don't I smell like such a nag champa incense?
Yeah, pure ice (ice), ice (ice), buss down
Uh, flooded (flooded), flooded (flooded), on my wrist, out
Ooh, going up, going up, motherland, motherland drip on me
Ooh, melanin, melanin, my drip is skin deep, like
Ooh, motherland, motherland, motherland, motherland drip on me
Ooh, yeah, I can't forget my history is her story, yeah
Being black, maybe that's the reason why
They're always mad, yeah, they're always mad, yeah
Been past 'em, I know that's the reason why
They're all big mad and they always have been

Honey, come around my way, around my hive
Whenever mama say so, mama say
Here I come on my throne, sitting high
Follow my parade, oh, my parade
Talking slick to my folk (My folk), nip that lip like lipo (Lipo)
You hear them swarming, right? Bees is known to bite
Now here we come on our thrones, sitting high
Follow my parade, oh, my parade

Yeah, yeah, I'm for us, all black
All chrome (Yeah), black-owned (Yeah)
Black tints (Yeah), matte black (Yeah, yeah)
Roll by, my window down, let 'em see who in it
Crack a big smile (Ding)
Go figure, me and Jigga, fifty 'leven children
They're like, "Chick, how?"
I charge my crystals in a full moon
You could send them missiles, I'ma send my goons
Baby sister repping Yemaya (Yemaya)
Trust me, they're gon' need an army (Ah)
Rubber bullets bouncing off me (Ah)
Made a picket sign off your picket fence (Ah)
Take it as a warning (Ah, ah)
Waist beads from Yoruba (Woo)
Four hundred billi', Mansa Musa (Woo)
Stroll line to the barbecue
Put us any-damn-where, we gon' make it look cute
Pandemic fly on the runway, in my hazmat
Children' running through the house to my art, all black
Ancestors on the wall, let the ghosts chit-chat
(Ancestors on the wall, let the ghosts chit-chat)
Hold my hands, we gon' pray together
Lay down, face down in the gravel
Woo, wearing all attire white to the funeral
Black love, we gon' stay together
Curtis Mayfield on the speaker (Woo)
Lil' Malcolm, Martin mixed with mama Tina (Woo)
Need another march, lemme call Tamika (Woo)
Need peace and reparation for my people (Woo)
Fuck these laid edges, I'ma let it shrivel up (Shrivel up)
Fuck this fade and waves, I'ma let it dread all up (Dread all up)
Put your fist up in the air, show black love (Show black love)
Motherland drip on me, motherland, motherland drip on me

Honey, come around my way, around my hive
Whenever mama say so, mama say
Here I come on my throne, sitting high

We birth kings (We birth kings), we birth tribes (We birth tribes)
Holy river (Holy river), holy tongue (Holy tongue)
Speak the glory (Speak the glory), feel the love (Feel the love)

Crazy In Love (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

Coachella, you ready?
Let's go get 'em
Yes! So crazy right now!
Most incredibly, it's your girl, yes, B
History in the making
Part two, it's so crazy right now

I look and stare so deep in your eyes
I touch on you more and more every time
When you leave I'm begging you not to go
Call your name two, three times in a row
Such a funny thing for me to try to explain
How I'm feeling and my pride is the one to blame
Yeah, I still don't understand
Just how your love can do what no one else can

Got me looking so crazy right now
Your love's got me looking so crazy right now (Your love)
Got me looking so crazy right now
Your touch got me looking so crazy right now (Your touch)
Got me hoping you'll page me right now
Your kiss got me hoping you'll save me right now
Looking so crazy, your love's got me looking
Got me looking so, looking so, looking so

Drop it
Oh oh, oh oh, uh oh, oh no no

(B)
When I talk to my friends so quietly
("Who he think he is?")
Look at what you did to me
Tennis shoes, don't even need to buy a new dress
You ain't there, ain't nobody else to impress
It's the way that you know what I thought I knew
The beat that my heart skips when I'm with you
I still don't understand
Just how your love can do what no one else can

Got me looking so crazy right now (Yeah)
Got me looking so crazy right now (So, crazy)
Got me looking so crazy right now (Your love)
So crazy right now, so crazy right now
Got me looking so crazy right now (Hey)
Got me looking so crazy right now (Hey)
Got me looking so crazy right now (Coachella)
So crazy right now, so crazy right now (Y'all dance with me, come on)

Freedom (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

Tryna rain, tryna rain on the thunder
Tell the storm I'm new
I'ma walk, I'ma march on the regular
Painting white flags blue
Lord forgive me, I've been running
Running blind in truth
I'ma rain, I'ma rain on this bitter love
Tell the sweet I'm new

Ooh, I'm telling these tears, "Go and fall away, fall away", oh
May the last one burn into flames

Freedom, freedom, I can't move
Freedom, cut me loose, yeah
Freedom, freedom, where are you?
'Cause I need freedom too
I break chains all by myself
Won't let my freedom rot in hell
Hey, I'ma keep on running
'Cause a winner don't quit on themselves, oh

What you want from me?
Is it truth you seek? Oh father can you hear me?
What you want from me?
Is it truth you seek? Oh father can you hear me?
What you want from me?

Ring with the harmonies of liberty

Let our rejoicing rise
High as the listening skies
Let us march on 'til victory is won

Formation (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

Baby, I'm back by popular demand
Bitch, I'm back by popular demand
I did not come to play with you hoes
I came to slay, bitch

Y'all haters corny with that Illuminati mess
Paparazzi, catch my fly and my cocky fresh
I'm so reckless when I rock my Givenchy dress (Stylin')
I'm so possessive so I rock his Roc necklaces (Woo)
My daddy Alabama, mama Louisiana
You mix that negro with that Creole, make a Texas bama
I like my baby heir with baby hair and afros
I like my negro nose with Jackson Five nostrils
Earned all this money, but they never take the country out me
I got hot sauce in my bag, swag

I see it, I want it, I stunt, yellow bone it
Dream it, I work hard, I grind 'til I own it
I twirl on my haters, albino alligators
El Camino with the seat low, sippin' Cuervo with no chaser
Sometimes I go off (I go off), I go hard (I go hard)
Take what's mine (Take what's mine), I'm a star (I'm a star)
'Cause I slay (Slay), I slay (Hey), I slay (Okay), I slay (Okay)
All day (Okay), I slay (Okay), I slay (Okay), I slay (Okay)

Come on, prove to me you got some coordination, 'cause I slay
Slay trick, or you get eliminated

When he fuck me good, I take his ass to Red Lobster ('Cause I slay)
('Cause I slay)
If he hit it right, I might take him on a flight on my chopper (I slay)
Drop him off at the mall, let him buy some J's, let him shop up (I slay)
I might get your song played on the radio station ('Cause I slay)
I might get your song played on the radio station ('Cause I slay)
You just might be a black Bill Gates in the making ('Cause I slay)
I just might be a black Bill Gates in the making

I see it, I want it, I stunt, yellow bone it
I dream it, I work hard, I grind 'til I own it
I twirl on my haters, albino alligators
El Camino with the seat low, sippin' Cuervo with no chaser
Sometimes I go off (I go off), I go hard (I go hard)
Take what's mine (Take what's mine), I'm a star (I'm a star)
'Cause I slay (Slay), I slay (Hey), I slay (Okay), I slay (Okay)

You know you that bitch when you cause all this conversation
Always stay gracious, best revenge is your paper

So Much Damn Swag (Interlude) (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

I grew up in Houston, Texas
Visiting Prairie View
We rehearsed at TSU
For many years in Third Ward
And I always dreamed of going to an HBCU
My college was Destiny's Child
My college was traveling around the world
And life was my teacher
I wanted a black orchestra
I wanted the steppers
I needed the vocalist
I wanted different characters
I didn't want us all doing the same thing
And the amount of swag is just limitless
Like the things that these young people can do
With their bodies and the music they can play
And the drum-rolls and the haircuts
And the bodies and the
It's just not right
It's just so much damn swag

Sorry (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

Let me hear you sing

Sorry, I ain't sorry
Sorry, I ain't sorry
I ain't sorry, nigga, nah
Sorry, I ain't sorry
Sorry, I ain't sorry
I ain't sorry

He trying to roll me up (I ain't sorry)
I ain't picking up (I ain't sorry)
I'm headed to the club (I ain't sorry)
I ain't thinking 'bout you (I ain't sorry)
Me and my ladies sip my D'USSÉ cup (I ain't sorry, I ain't sorry)
I don't give a fuck, chucking my deuces up
Suck on my balls, pause

Bug a boos, I need a good laugh
You, make me laugh
(Bug a boos)

Did that make us laugh?
Think about it
(Bug a boos)

Fall in line
Ladies, ladies, ladies
Are we smart? (Yes)
Are we strong? (Yes)
Have we had enough of the bullshit? (Yes)
Show 'em

Suck
On my balls
Suck on my balls
Suck on my balls, bitch
Suck
On my balls
Suck on my balls, balls
Hell nah
Hell nah

Middle fingers up (Middle fingers up)
Put them hands high (Put them hands high)
Wave it in his face (Wave it, wave it in his face)
Tell him, "Boy, bye" (Tell him, tell him, "Boy, bye")
Let's go
Tell him, "Boy, bye", tell him, tell him, "Boy, bye"
Tell him, "Boy, bye", tell him, tell him, "Boy, bye"
Tell him, "Boy, bye", tell him, tell him, "Boy, bye"
I ain't thinkin' 'bout you

Middle fingers up, put them hands high
Wave it in his face, tell him, "Boy, bye"
Tell him, "Boy, bye, boy, bye"
Middle fingers up, I ain't thinkin' 'bout you

Sorry, I ain't sorry
Sorry, I ain't sorry
I ain't sorry, nigga, nah
I ain't thinkin' 'bout you
Sorry, I ain't sorry
Sorry, I ain't sorry
I ain't sorry
No, no, hell nah

Now you wanna say you're sorry
Now you wanna call me crying
Now you gotta see me wilding
Now I'm the one that's lying
And I don't feel bad about it
It's exactly what you get
Stop interrupting my grinding

I can't believe I believed everything we had would last
So young and naive of me to think she was from your past
Foolish of me to dream while you cheat with what
Whit loose women
It took me some time, but now I am strong
Because I realized I've got

Me, myself, and I
That's all I got in the end
That's what I found out
And it ain't no need to cry
(I see you, how did you do that so fast? She has on my outfit, y'all)
Sing it
(Me, myself, and I) Sing it
(That's all I got in the end)
(That's what I found out) Found out
(And it ain't no need to cry) Sing it ladies
I took a vow that from now on, I'm gon' be my own best friend

Right, ladies? Yes

I left a note in the hallway
By the time you read it, I'll be far away
I'm far away
But I ain't fucking with nobody
Let's have a toast to the good life
Suicide before you see this tear fall down my eyes
Me and my baby, we gon' be alright
We gon' live a good life
Big homie better grow up
Me and my woadies 'bout to stroll up
I see them boppers in the corner
They sneaking out the back door
He only want me when I'm not there
He better call Becky with the good hair
He better call Becky with the good hair

Kitty Kat (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

I rock diamonds on my neck
Got diamonds on my records
Since fifteen, comin' down reppin' Texas
How you gonna neglect this?
You was just a hot mess
You can call Tyrone, you ain't gots to lie Craig

What about my body, body?
You don't want my body, body
Acting like I'm nobody
You gon' make me call somebody

I think it's time to go
(Let's go little kitty kat)
He don't want no more
(Let's go little kitty kat)
He better call Becky with the good hair

Bow Down (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

(Call Becky with the good hair)
Coachella, thank y'all so much for having us once again
I'm so honored to be on this stage tonight
And this next song is for all of my queens
Do we have any beautiful queens in the house tonight?
I want y'all to sing along if you know the lyrics
It's called "Bow Down"

I know when you were little girls
You dreamt of bein' in my world
Don't forget it, don't forget it
Respect that, bow down bitches
I took some time to live my life
But don't think I'm just his little wife
Don't get it twisted, get it twisted
This my shit, bow down bitches

Bow down bitches, bow-bow down bitches (Hey)
(Bow down down, bow-bow bow down)
(Bow down down, bow-bow bow down)
(Bow down down, bow-bow bow down)
(I'm so crown, crown, bow down, hey)
H-Town

I'm out that H-Town
Comin', comin' down
I'm comin' down, drippin' candy on the ground
(Comin' up)
H, H-Town-Town, I'm comin' down
(Comin' down)
Com-com-comin' down, drippin' candy on the ground

I Been On (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

C-c-comin' down, drippin' candy on the ground
C-c-comin' down, drippin' candy on the ground
C-c-comin' down, drippin' candy on the ground
C-c-comin' down, drippin' candy on the ground
Listen

I been on, I been on, I been on
Tell me who gon' take me off
Take me off, take me off, take me off
I-I been on, I been on, I been on
Tell me who gon' take me off
Take me off, take me off, take me off

Rolling high, leather and wood
Keep it trill, that's what good
Kiss my mama, show that love
Pop them bottles in that club
I heard your crew was talking lip
Guess what I did? Smack that trick
Smack that trick
Guess what I did? (Smack that trick)
Gold everything, gold ass fangs
Gold ass chains, gold ass things
You can see me stunt when you turn on the screen
You can-you can see me stunt when you turn on the screen
I'm bigger than life, my name in the lights
I'm the capital B, I don't need no hype
The capital B mean I'm 'bout that life
The capital B mean I'm 'bout that life, bitch

Drunk In Love (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

I've been drinkin', I've been drinkin'
Get filthy when that liquor get into me
I've been thinkin', I've been thinkin'
Why can't I keep my fingers off it?
Baby, I want you, now-now
Why can't I keep my fingers off it?
Baby, I want you, now-now
(Coachella, I wanna hear y'all sing)
Cigars on ice, cigars on ice
Feelin' like an animal with these cameras all in my grill
Flashin' lights, flashin' lights
You got me faded, faded, faded
Baby, I want you, now-now
Can't keep your eyes off my fatty
Daddy, I want you
Drunk in love
(How y'all doin' over here?)
I want you

We woke up in the kitchen
Saying, "How the hell did this shit happen?"
Oh, baby (I can see you all the way, all the way back there)
We be all night
Last thing I remember is our beautiful bodies grindin' up in that club
Drunk in love
(Sing it, y'all)

We be all night (Sing, come on, sing)
We be all night (Sing, hey)

We be all night, and everything all right
No complaints 'cause my body so fluorescent under these lights
Boy, I'm drinkin', park it in my lot, 7-Eleven
I'm rubbin' on it, rub-rubbin', if you scared, call that reverend
(Boy, I'm drinkin') Get my brain right
Armand de Brignac, gangster wife
Louis sheets, he sweat it out
Like washrags, he wet it up
Boy, I'm drinkin', I'm singin' on the mic 'til my voice hoarse
Then I fill the tub up halfway
Then ride it with my surfboard
Surfboard (Surfboard)
Grainin' on that wood
Grainin', grainin' on that wood (Wood)
I'm swervin' on his, swerve-swervin' on his big body Benz
Surfin' all on his (Surfs up)
Good good

Hey
Last thing I remember is our beautiful bodies grindin' up in that club
Drunk in love

We be all night (Sing it, hey)
We be all night

Ride it with my surfboard
(Man, I got that swag)
Surfboard, surfboard
(My hat matchin' my bag)
Grainin' on that wood
Grainin', grainin' on that wood
(You know I'm poppin' tags)
I'm swervin' on his, swerve-swervin' on his big body Benz
(And man I got that swag)
Ah, you

I swag when I surf
I swag when I surf
I swag when I surf
Now watch me surf and swag
I swag when I surf
I swag when I surf
I swag when I surf
Now watch me surf and swag

Surfboard, surfboard, surfboard
Grainin' on that wood
Grainin', grainin' on that wood
Swervin' on his, swerve-swervin' on his big body Benz
Surfin' all on his, surf-surfin' all on his good good

To the left, to the left
Everything you own in the box to the left (Sing it)
To the left, to the left
Everything you own in the box to the left
Say I'm a-a diva (Sing it)
I'm a-a diva
Say I'm a-a diva (Sing it)
I'm a-a diva (Louder)

I'm a-a diva (Can't hear you)
I'm a-a diva (Sing it)
I'm a-a diva

Diva (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

I'm a-a diva (Hey), I'm a, I'm a-a diva (Hey)
I'm a, I'm a-a diva (Hey), I'm a, I'm a-a diva (Hey)
I'm a, I'm a-a diva (Hey), I'm a, I'm a a diva (Hey)
I'm a, I'm a a diva (Hey), I'm a, I'm a a di

Na-na-na, diva is a female version of a hustler
Of a hustler, of a, of a hustler
Na-na-na, diva is a female version of a hustler
Of a hustler, of a, of a hustler

Stop the track, lemme state facts
I told you, gimme a minute and I'll be right back
50 million 'round the world and they say that I couldn't get it
I done got so sick and filthy with Benjis, I can't spend it
Tell me somethin', (Tell me somethin')
Where yo boss at? (Where yo boss at?)
Where my ladies up in here that like to talk back? (That like to talk back?)
I wanna see her (I wanna see her)
I'd like to meet ya (I'd like to meet her)
What you say? (Not to me)
She ain't no diva (She ain't no diva)

Oh no, no, no
Divas, y'all help me sing this next verse
Here we go

Since 15 in my stilettos, been struttin' in this game
"What's yo age?" was the question they ask when I hit the stage
I'm a diva, best believe her, you see how she gettin' paid?
She ain't callin' him to greet her, don't need him, her bed's made
This is a stick-up, stick-up (I need them bags of that money)
We're gonna stick-up, stick-up (You see the mask, where that money?)
All my ladies get it done, I see you, I do the same
Take it to another level, no passengers on my plane

Hey, hey, hey, yeah
I'm a, I'm a a diva, I'm a, I'm a a diva (I need them bags of that money)
I'm a, I'm a a diva, I'm a, I'm a a diva (You see the mask, where that money?)
(I need them bags of that money)

I be gettin' to the money, everybody mad
I think I'm gettin' too much money, everybody mad
The same old nigga from the block
The same old nigga with the pot
The same old nigga from the trap
Everybody hated on him, then he bounced right back
I be gettin' to the money, everybody mad
I think I'm gettin' too much money, everybody mad
The same old nigga from the block
The same old nigga with the pot
The same old nigga from the trap
Everybody hated on him, then he bounced right back
Gettin' to the money

Daddy taught me gotta love my haters
Sister taught me how to speak my mind
My man make me feel so God damn fine

Top Off (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

Check this out, after Beyoncé performed
After she done the dance
Coachella gotta rename Coachella to Beychella
New name alert: Beychella
If y'all know this one I want y'all to sing along
And bop, and bop, bop
B, put the fuck boy on notice

I'm the only lady here, still the realest nigga in the room
I break the Internet, top two and I ain't number two
My body, my ice, my cash, all real, I'm a triple threat
Fuck it up and then leave, come back, fuck it up and leave again
Top off the coupe and it look like Freaknik
In the hood, hollerin', "Free Meek"
Two deep, it's just me and JAY
Just posted in them court-side seats
Woo! I'm like "Hold up"
Woo! I might roll up
They're tryna party with the queen
They gon' have to sign a non-disclosure

I took the top off the Maybach, yeah
I took the top off the Maybach

I took the top off the Maybach, yeah
Ayy, I took the top off of my Maybach, bitch
I took the top off of my Maybach, bitch

You a bad girl and your friends bad too (Ooh)
We got the swag sauce, she drippin' swagu (Ooh)

As a black woman, I used to feel like the world wanted me to stay in my little box. And black women often feel underestimated. And I wanted us to be proud of not only the show, but the process. Be proud of the struggle. Thankful for the beauty that comes with a painful history and rejoice in the pain. Rejoice in the imperfections and the wrongs that are so damn right. And I wanted everyone to be grateful for their curves, their sass, their honesty. Thankful for their freedom

Don't Hurt Yourself (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

Who the fuck do you think I is?
You ain't married to no average bitch, boy
You can watch this fat ass twist, boy
As I bounce to the next dick, boy
And keep your money, I got my own
Keep a bigger smile on my face being alone
Bad motherfucker, God complex
I'll motivate your ass, call me Malcolm X
Your operator, innovator
Fuck you, hater, you can't recreate her, no, haha
You'll never recreate her, no, hell no, uh

You just gotta let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, baby, oh
You just gotta let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, baby

You hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself
When you play me, you play yourself
Don't play yourself
When you lie to me, you lie to yourself
You're only lying to yourself
When you hurt me, you hurt yourself
Don't hurt yourself

You just gotta let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, baby
Hey baby

Who the fuck do you think I is?
I smell that fragrance on your Louis knit, boy
Just give this fat ass a big kiss, boy
Tonight, I'm fucking up all your shit, boy

(The most disrespected person in America is the black woman)
I am the dragon breathing fire
(The most unprotected person in America is the black woman)
Beautiful mane, I'm the lion
(The most neglected person in America is the black woman)
Beautiful man, I know you're lying

This is your final warning (Don't hurt yourself)
You know I give you life (Don't hurt yourself)
If you try this shit again (Don't hurt yourself)
You gon' lose your wife

I Care (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

I told you how you hurt me, baby
But you don't care
Now I'm crying and deserted, baby
But you don't care
Ain't nobody tell me this is love
When you're immune to all my pain
I need you to tell me this is love
You don't care? Well, that's okay

Well, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, baby
Oh, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, baby (Oh)

Ever since you knew your power, you made me cry
And now every time our love goes sour, you can't sympathize, baby
You see these tears falling down to my ear
I swear, you like when I'm in pain, yeah
I try to tell you all my fears
You still don't care? Well, that's okay
Listen, hey

Well, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, baby
Oh, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, baby

Boy, maybe if you cared enough
I wouldn't have to care so much
What happened to our trust?
Now you're just givin' up
You used to be so in love
Now you don't care no more

Ooh, ooh, do-do-do do do-do-do
Do-do, do-do, do-do-do-do-do-do
Ooh, ooh, hey

Well, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, baby
Oh, I care
I know you don't care too much
But I still care, baby

I still care, baby
I still care, yeah
I still care
La-la-la, la-la-la

Partition (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

(Drop)
Driver, roll up the partition, please
Driver, roll up the partition, please

Driver, roll up the partition, please
I don't need you seeing 'Yoncé on her knees
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
We ain't even gonna make it to this club
Now my mascara running, red lipstick smudged
Oh, me so horny, yeah, he want to fuck
He popped all my buttons, and he ripped my blouse
He Monica Lewinsky-ed all on my gown

Oh, there daddy, daddy didn't bring the towel
Oh, baby, baby, we better slow it down
Took 45 minutes to get all dressed up
We ain't even gonna make it to this club

Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (Girl you like)
The kind of girl you like (Girl you like)
Take all of me
I just wanna be the girl you like (Girl you like)
The kinda girl you like is right here with me

Right here with me, right here with me
Right here with me, right here with me

Right here with me, right here with me
Right here with me, right here with me
Right here with me, right here with me
Right here with me, right here with me
Hello
Right here with me, right here with me
Right here with me, right here with me
Hello

Yoncé (Homecoming Live) lyrics - Beyonce

See me up in the club with fifty-eleven girls
Posted in the back, diamond fangs in my grill
Brooklyn brim with my eyes sitting low
Every girl in here with me got that smoke
Every girl in here gotta look me up and down
All on Instagram, cake by the pound
Circulate the image every time I come around
G's up, tell me how it's looking, babe

Drop the bass, mane, the bass get lower
Radio say "Speed it up", I just go slower
High like treble, pumping on the mids
The man ain't ever seen a booty like this
So why you think ya keep my name rolling off the tongue?
'Cause when he wanna smash, I'll just write another one
I sneezed on the beat and the beat got sicker
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Yoncé all on his mouth like liquor
Like, like liquor, like, like, like liquor
