[Intro: Shekhinah]
I wanna be yeah
I wanna be yeah
An African queen
I wanna be yeah
I wanna be yeah
[Verse 1: Shekhinah]
I wanna be, I wanna be yeah
An African queen
Beads down to my feet yeah
Just time for me to see and you to dream
Big booty till the day I go
I never let what you think of me hold and sell for your dirt, just go yeah
Know you don't like me 'cause I don't do what I see
I get around on my two feet yeah
Guess I just don't show enough to get what's in my cup filled up
So I work hard for what I want
You know you pay more for my love
[Pre-Chorus: Shekhinah]
And I-
Don't gotta say I do, don't gotta say I do, yeah
And I-
Don't gotta say I do, don't gotta say I do, yeah
[Chorus: Shekhinah]
Everybody tryna be a bad girl, fit into a man’s world
When we inevitably, we, we run this world
Power to she
Who knows she's a queen
Who knows she's a queen yeah
Power to she, yeah
I wanna be yeah
I wanna be yeah
[Verse 2: Rouge]
Yeah she got that juice
Yeah she got the crown for the juice
Boss with a case and a suit
Yeah, everybody stop when she move
Uncle Sammin' in this bitch, she a choice
When she march we salute
No "L" 'cause she coming for the win, yeah
Controlling everybody like a sin, yeah
Took it to the top, now she super on lock
Go dark, she ain't giving out the pin
Overtime double up, double like a twin
Gotta work, work, work for the little that she get
African queen and she taking out the best
Mama do the most when you looking at the rest, no, no
[Pre-Chorus: Shekhinah & Shekhinah & Rouge]
And I-
Don't gotta say I do, don't gotta say I do, yeah
(No I don't gotta say I do yeah)
Don't gotta say I do, don't gotta say I do
Out here queening 24 seven and I never need a reason
African queen, no, I never need a reason
[Chorus: Shekhinah]
Everybody tryna be a bad girl, fit into a man’s world
When we inevitably, we, we run this world
Power to she
Who knows she's a queen
Who knows she's a queen yeah
Power to she, yeah
[Post-Chorus: Shekhinah]
And I-
Don't gotta say I do, don't gotta say I do, yeah
Out here queening 24 seven and I never need a reason
Don't gotta say I do, don't gotta say I do, yeah
Out here queening 24 seven and I never need a reason
African queen, no, I never need a reason
[Outro]
Under the weather yeah
When I'm under the weather
Under the weather yeah...
