Empress On The Move

You are having a great day,

But the feeling won’t stay!

You are telling everyone you are doing just fine.

You wish you can say, but you can’t be out of line.

So you put on a show,

And you pray it wouldn’t show.

You walk on all alone pushing hard through the crowd.

You are sick of standing under their damn cloud.

You have abandoned the cold.

You are getting quite bold.

All the dreamers at home got nothing on you.

They ain’t like you, they won’t pursue.

You are luminary, you are eight years ahead.

They'll follow your lead then will ask you to lead.

They were all so scared of you finding your truth.

Cause once you do, they have wasted their youth.

In haunting you,

In breaking you.

Yet they never realized fear makes you strong.

They tried to burry you but you grew long.

You have made your own trade,

They are hiding all now under your swish shad.

They'll fill your fame hall with their loud hails.

You ain’t no fool, you won’t buy their tales.

Where was this moment when you needed them the most?

They didn’t hype you then, they don’t deserve this toast.

Won’t give in to their ways...

Cause you are having great days!
