"Royalty" lyrics

I know reality can cut you when you're facing it
It's better than the fantasy that you replace it with Compliments and attention
The likes and mentions
Can lead you astray when you be chasing it
You say you're a bad chick who likes bad boys
That's probably why you stay in bad relationships
If you only knew the worth of your love girl
Maybe you would see the value in you saving it
And they say "why would he buy the cow when he gets his milk for free?"
If he won't make you wifey why give him your husband's luxury?
Then he does a 180 when he's sick of you
It's easier to leave what you're not committed to
So you cried yourself to sleep that night
And you woke up a different you
That isn't true

Do you know who you are?
Do you know you're a star?
A whole galaxy baby
But you're out here looking crazy
Do you know you're a queen?
The offspring of a king
So you are royalty baby
You are royalty

If you didn't show your body would he notice you?
And now why give him the pleasure of even knowing you?
And though you love it when your body make his head turn
It'll turn away when someone's showing more than you
Does he take advantage of you when you're broke down?
Or pick you up cause he believe in you when no one do?
And if he know that you're a gift he gone wait for you
And if he won't did he really deserve to open you? No
And they say "why would he buy the house when you let him live in it for free?"
And he don't wanna be no husband but want you to be everything a wife should be
Then he does a 180 when he's sick of you
It's easier to leave what you're not committed to
I guess you got so tired of crying
You dived in just became what he did to you
That isn't true

Do you know who you are?
Do you know you're a star?
A whole galaxy baby
But you're out here looking crazy
Do you know you're a queen?
The offspring of a king
So you are royalty baby
You are royalty

Baby girl you're amazing
Just wanted to tell you that
And love can be shown
Don't let nobody just tell you that
I know you been through hell and back
Just looking for love in the wrong places yet to find where it's at
So that's where you settled at
So you filled him with love
Settled for less huh?
All you ever learned from a man was never to trust one
Say you did everything right
You made him a great wife
But the problem is that man was never your husband
Your feelings are hurt
You live and you learn no
But never give him what he ain't willing to work for
See that Benz he paid for he had to save for
Which just goes to show you what he want he'll wait for
Real talk

Do you know who you are?
Do you know you're a star?
A whole galaxy baby
But you're out here looking crazy
Do you know you're a queen?
The offspring of a king
So you are royalty baby
You are royalty
Do you know who you are?
Do you know you're a star?
A whole galaxy baby
But you're out here looking crazy
Do you know you're a queen?
The offspring of a king
So you are royalty baby
You are royalty
