About the Artist
Lyrics
1 - Intuition [BEYONCÉ]: What are you doing, my love? --- I tried to make a home out of you But doors lead to trap doors A stairway leads to nothing Unknown women wander the hallways at night Where do you go when you go quiet? You remind me of my father, a magician Able to exist in two places at once In the tradition of men in my blood you come home at 3AM and lie to me What are you hiding? The past and the future merge to meet us here What luck What a fucking curse ─ 2 - Denial [BEYONCÉ]: I tried to change, closed my mouth more Tried to bе soft, prettier, less awakе Fasted for sixty days, wore white Abstained from mirrors Abstained from sex Slowly did not speak another word In that time my hair I grew past my ankles I slept on a mat on a floor I swallowed a sword I levitated Into the basement, confessed my sins and was baptised in a river Got on my knees and said amen And said Ameen I whipped my own back and asked for dominion at your feet I threw myself into a volcano I drank the blood and drank the wine I sat alone and begged and bent at the waist for God I crossed myself and thought I saw the devil I grew thickened skin on my feet I bathed in bleach and plugged my menses with pages from the Holy Book But still inside me coiled deep was the need to know Are you cheating on me? (cheating) Are you cheating on me? ─ 3 - Anger [BEYONCÉ]: If it's what you truly want I can wear her skin over mine Her hair, over mine Her hands as gloves Her teeth as confetti Her scalp, a cap Her sternum, my bedazzled cane We can pose for a photograph All three of us Immortalised You and your perfect girl I don’t know when love became elusive What I know is no one I know has it My father’s arms around my mother’s neck Fruit too ripe to eat I think of lovers as trees Growing to and from one another Searching for the same light Why can’t you see me? Why can’t you see me? (Why can’t you) Why can’t you see me? Everyone else can ─ 4 - Apathy [BEYONCÉ]: So what are you gonna say at my funeral now that you’ve killed me? Here lies the body of the love of my life, whose heart I broke without a gun to my head Here lies the mother of my children both living and dead Rest in peace my true love Who I took for granted Most bomb pussy Who because of me, sleep evaded Her shroud is loneliness Her God is listening Her heaven would be a love without betrayal Ashes to ashes, dust to side chicks ─ 5 - Emptiness [BEYONCÉ]: She sleeps all day Dreams of you in both worlds Tills the blood in and out of uterus Wakes up smelling of zinc Grief, sedated by orgasm Orgasm heightened by grief God was in the room when the man said to the woman I love you so much, wrap your legs around me and pull me in, pull me in, pull me in Sometimes when he’d have her nipple in his mouth She’d whisper “Oh my God” That too is a form of worship Her hips grind Pestle and mortar, cinnamon and cloves Whenever he pulls out Loss Dear moon, we blame you for floods For the flush of blood For men who are also wolves We blame you for the night For the dark For the ghosts --- Every fear Every nightmare Anyone has ever had ─ 6 - Accountability [BEYONCÉ]: You find the black tube inside her beauty case Where she keeps your father’s old prison letters You desperately want to look like her You look nothing like your mother You look everything like your mother Film star beauty How to wear your mother’s lipstick You go to the bathroom to apply the lipstick Somewhere no one can find you You must wear it like she wears disappointment on her face Your mother is a woman And women like her cannot be contained --- Mother dearest let me inherit the Earth Teach me how to make him beg Let me make up for the years he made you wait Did he bend your reflection? Did he make you forget your own name? Did he convince you he was a God? Did you get on your knees daily? Do his eyes close like doors? Are you a slave to the back of his head? Am I talking about your husband or your father? ─ 7 - Reformation [BEYONCÉ]: He bathes me until I forget their names and faces I ask him to look me in the eye when I come... home Why do you deny yourself heaven? Why do you consider yourself undeserving? Why are you afraid of love? You think it’s not possible for someone like you But you are the love of my life (Love of my life) (The love of my life) (The love of my life) ─ 8 - Forgiveness [BEYONCÉ]: Baptise me Now that reconciliation is possible If we’re gonna heal, let it be glorious One thousand girls raise their arms Do you remember being born? Are you thankful for the hips that cracked? The deep velvet of your mother And her mother, and her mother? There is a curse that will be broken ─ 9 - Resurrection [FEMALE VOICE]: Something is missing, I've never seen this in my life So many young women, they tell you, “I want me a hu” Say “all them make me feel better than you” What? So how we supposed to lead our children to the future? What do we do? How do we lead them? Love L-O-V-E, love, Mm-mmm-mmm, hallelujah, thank you, Jesus I just love the Lord, I’m sorry, brother I love the Lord, that’s all I got When your back gets against the wall and your wall against your back, who you call? Hey! Who you call? Who you call? You gotta call Him You gotta call Jesus, you gotta call Him You gotta call Him ’cause you ain’t got another hope. [BEYONCÉ]: You are terrifying And strange And beautiful Magic ─ 10 - Hope [BEYONCÉ]: The nail technician pushes my cuticles back Turns my hand over Stretches the skin on my palm and says “I see your daughters, and their daughters” That night in a dream the first girl emerges from a slit in my stomach The scar heals into a smile The man I love pulls the stitches out with his fingernails We leave black sutures curling on the side of the bath I wake as the second girl crawls up headfirst up my throat A flower blossoming out of the hole in my face ─ 11 - Redemption [BEYONCÉ]: Take one pint of water, add a half pound of sugar The juice of eight lemons, the zest of half lemon Pour the water from one jug, then into the other, several times Strain through a clean napkin Grandmother, the alchemist You spun gold out of this hard life Conjured beauty from the things left behind Found healing where it did not live Discovered the antidote in your own kitchen Broke the curse with your own two hands You passed these instructions down to your daughter Who then passed it down to her daughter [GRANDMOTHER (HATTIE)]: I’ve had my ups and downs But I always find the inner strength to pull myself up I was served lemons, but I made lemonade [BEYONCÉ]: My grandma said, nothing real can be threatened True love brought salvation back into me With every tear came redemption And my torturer became my remedy So we’re gonna heal, we’re gonna start again You’ve brought the orchestra Synchronised swimmers, you are the magician Pull me back together again the way you cut me in half Make the women in doubt disappear Pull the sorrow from between my legs like silk Knot after knot after knot The audience applauds But we can’t hear them --- How I missed you, my love
