Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Brown excellence, our testament's
Never found in history books, be proud
Our ancestors never drifted, navigated the clouds
Poly people, you are gifted, unify and be proud
They planned to divide and conquer, but we never went down
Born with warrior spirit, know your queendom is found
In your grandmother, when your feet touch the ground
Let them feel power and tremble, when my words left the pencil
They were formed before me, my family tree
Carries the story of voyages, mastered on the sea
If you can see you true beauty, if you see what I see
My heart beats for the culture, you were born to be queens
[Chorus]
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a—
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a, I'm a , I'm a, I'm a
[Chorus]
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a—
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a, I'm a , I'm a, I'm a
[Chorus]
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a—
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a, I'm a , I'm a, I'm a
[Verse 2]
Young warrior, lost tribe warrior
Don't wallow in sorrow, remember who we are
Whitewashing held you down, now raise up to the stars
Trace back your lineage, learn lessons from the past
You were born for a purpose, don't believe their versions
Of miseducation and oppression, seas are changing
Revelations happen when you decondition
Look through the eyes of the past to see the vision, God willing
Time to find freedom, you're the change that we need
My heart bleeds for the culture, you were born to be kings
[Bridge]
There needs to be a shift in the way our minds work
We are taught by an education system that only educates us the way that they want us to be
Not the way that we were born to be
That our ancestors fought and died for us to be
Brainwashing us
Systematically and strategically to be more like the way they think we should be
[PreChorus]
I'm a, I'm a , I'm a, I'm a
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a—
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a, I'm a , I'm a, I'm a
[Chorus]
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a—
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a queen, you a queen
I'm a queen, you a queen, I'm a, I'm a , I'm a, I'm a
[Outro]
We need to figure out who we are as a people
And unite and come together and stay strong
Cherish and hold on to the very thing they are trying to beat out of us
That was colonization
Keep your culture
