Courageous enough to move on, Beyoncé enough to be independent


Queen B

Queen ME

“To know love is to know pain”

Fall in love

Kiss him

Fulfill his fantasies

Before they turn the lights out

That one love that ripped my heart out

Be strong

Throw is in his face

Independent

Independence

Do what I was born to do

But I have to trust myself

Love myself like XO

Saying I’m such a fool, talking ‘bout

How I’ll never ever find a man like you

I’m independent

You got me twisted

Replacing you was so easy

Courageous enough to move on

I put myself first

Made the rules as I went

I’ll find the man that brings out the best version

Of myself

Because if I’m not the woman a man needs

Then I’m not sure that’s very Beyoncé of me
