Lyrics
Blacker the berry, richer the juice
I wanna call you my forbidden fruit
Caught you by the gloss of your eyes and your pearly white smile
I'm sure you can hold it down
Let me pass you all my thoughts through the string
I'm tasting all the flavours, yeah, ever since
Playing with your curly hair
Won't you tell me all your fears
Baby, I know what you see is driving you crazy
By the grace of the Lord, you gotta be brave for me
Can you say that for me?
Yeah
Oh, baby, yeah
I know what you see is driving you crazy
By the grace of the Lord, you gotta be brave for me
Can you say that for me?
Yeah
Queen, queen, queen
Weight on your shoulders (woman)
Backpack is full of dreams of being noticed (woman)
And tap water to drink, it keeps you focused (woman)
On track for all your meetings with your manager
Teachers and community leaders you're involved with (woman)
While your homies are tweeting their emotions
You stayed in the library, you see the omens (woman)
They follow you in the street
They're gentrifying your town, they're busy calling police
Trouble sleeping at night, triggered by shit that you seen
Smoking weed, tryna hide, reliving it in your dreams
Trouble keeping it light, triggered by shit that you read
Pity the fool that tries to try it ignorantly
You don't have time to entertain
Work nights, mornings and days and five papers submitted this week
And you're raising your niece
While their mothers clean their offices from finish to three
Realities of the queen
Baby, I know what you see is driving you crazy
By the grace of the Lord, you gotta be brave for me
Can you say that for me?
Yeah
Oh, baby, yeah
I know what you see is driving you crazy
By the grace of the Lord, you gotta be brave for me
Can you say that for me?
Yeah
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
