Queen's Throne

[Intro] (Soft piano melody lingers, then a smoky vocal hums in) [Verse 1] Sunlight spills on the concrete where she used to wait Scuffed up boots, a faded coat, but her head held straight They said "stay in line, don't rock the boat, don't dare to rise" She just smiled, tucked her dreams away, behind her tired eyes Worked the graveyard shift, counted coins to pay the rent Every whispered doubt, she turned it into intent Now she's walking down that same old street, but her step's not weak Got a fire in her bones, she's ready to speak [Pre-Chorus] No more hiding in the shadows, no more biting her tongue The world tried to box her in, but she's just begun She can feel the thunder rumble, she can taste the rain Gonna tear down every wall, gonna rewrite the game [Chorus] (Soaring, soulful vocal leads, smoky vocal harmonizes) She's the queen of her own throne, no crown, no golden chain She's the storm that breaks the silence, she's the light that melts the pain She don't need no one to save her, she's already saved Women rule the world now, yeah, we're here to stay Women rule the world now, yeah, we're here to stay [Verse 2] Another voice joins in, bright and clear She was told her voice was too loud, her dreams were too near Locked her passion in a cage, tried to make her disappear But she broke the bars, spread her wings, now she's flying here Third voice, warm and steady, a story of her own Lost her way but found her strength, when she learned to stand alone Now they're standing side by side, three hearts, one beat Gonna show the world what women, when they unite, can meet [Pre-Chorus] No more hiding in the shadows, no more biting our tongues The world tried to box us in, but we've just begun We can feel the thunder rumble, we can taste the rain Gonna tear down every wall, gonna rewrite the game [Chorus] (Soaring, soulful vocal leads, smoky and bright vocals harmonize) We're the queens of our own thrones, no crowns, no golden chains We're the storm that breaks the silence, we're the light that melts the pain We don't need no one to save us, we're already saved Women rule the world now, yeah, we're here to stay Women rule the world now, yeah, we're here to stay [Bridge] (Smoky vocal shifts to sharp rap flow) Yo, let's talk about the ones who paved the way Sojourner, Rosa, Maya, they didn't play They fought for the right to vote, to speak, to be seen Now we're carrying that torch, making sure their dreams ain't mean We're doctors, we're lawyers, we're artists, we're moms We're breaking glass ceilings, we're rewriting norms They said we're too emotional, too soft, too weak But we're the ones who build the world, when the ground feels bleak So stand up, raise your voice, let the whole world hear Women are the backbone, we're the ones who steer No more apologies, no more playing small We're taking what's ours, we're answering the call [Final Chorus] (All three vocals blend, energy peaks) We're the queens of our own thrones, no crowns, no golden chains We're the storm that breaks the silence, we're the light that melts the pain We don't need no one to save us, we're already saved Women rule the world now, yeah, we're here to stay Women rule the world now, yeah, we're here to stay We're here to stay, oh yeah, we're here to stay [Outro] (Soft piano fades in, three vocals harmonize a gentle hum)
