About This Track

A Dork five-star record, 'COZY' arrives as the second track on 'RENAISSANCE', Beyoncé's exuberant homage to dance and club culture. The song channels deep, soulful funk into a celebration of self-assurance and pride, Beyoncé declaring her comfort in her own skin over production that feels both loose and intoxicating. Where recent albums offered illuminating personal statements, this is physical music, intense body music filtered through her unique prism. The lyrics catalogue identity and resilience in vivid colour, Beyoncé moving from dark brown to fluorescent beige, from purple couture to yellow diamonds and rainbow gelato in the streets. She credits survival and confidence as the source of her ease, the chorus built around the refrain that she loves herself, comfortable and cozy with who she is. The song closes with a sampled spoken-word assertion of Blackness, grounding the celebration in lineage and pride. It sits within an album sequenced and mixed as one long magical DJ set, part of a broader crystallisation of Black history and queer culture that emerges as 'RENAISSANCE' progresses. The track exemplifies the carefree spirit and playful energy that define Beyoncé's return to making an out-and-out pop record, albeit on her own terms.

"COZY" is a track by Beyoncé, from the album RENAISSANCE, released 28th July 2022. The track is 3:30 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 17 articles about Beyoncé.

Lyrics

COZY

This a reminder

Damn, I love the burning of the dagger
From the words that you say (fuck, yeah)
Dancin' in the mirror, kiss my scars
Because I love what they made (ooh, yeah)

She's a god, she's a hero
She survived all she been through
Confident, damn, she lethal
Might I suggest you don't fuck with my sis
'Cause she comfortable

Comfortable in my skin
Cozy with who I am
Comfortable in my skin (cozy, cozy)
Comfortable in my skin
Feet up above your sins
I love myself, goddamn (cozy, cozy)

So cozy, I love me
They hate me because they want me
(I'm dark brown, dark skin, light skin, beige)
(Fluorescent beige, bitch, I'm black)

Been down, been up, been broke, broke down, bounced back
Been off, been on, been back, what you know about that?
Been the light, been dark, been the truth, been that King Bey energy
I been thick, been fine, still a ten, still here, that's all me
Black like love too deep
Dance to the soles of my feet
Green eyes envy me
Paint the world pussy pink

Blue like the soul I crowned
Purple drank and couture gowns
Gold fangs, a shade God made
Blue, black, white, and brown
Paint the town red like cinnamon
Yellow diamonds, limoncello glisterin'
Rainbow gelato in the streets
Renaissance, yachtin' in Capri

You're a god (you're a god), you're a hero (you're a hero)
You survived all you been through
Confident, damn, you lethal
Might I suggest you don't fuck with my sis
'Cause she comfortable

Comfortable in my skin
Cozy with who I am
Comfortable in my skin (cozy, cozy)
Comfortable in my skin
Cozy with who I am
I love myself, goddamn (cozy, cozy)

I'm cozy (I'm cozy), I'm juicy (I'm juicy)
You hate me (you hate me) 'cause you want me ('cause you want me)
I'm swaggy (I'm swaggy), effortlessly (effortlessly)
That's how God made me (how God made me)
So, bitch, pay me (so pay me, ching-a-ling, ching, ching) (I'm black)

(I'm probably one of the blackest motherfuckers walking around here)
Cozy
(In this motherfucking place)
(I'm probably one of the blackest motherfuckers in this house)
Cozy
(I'm black like that)

Comfortable in my skin
Cozy with who I am
I love myself, goddamn (cozy, cozy)

Unique
Unique is what you are
