Everyday Queen
Ever since the moment I learned how to think
I watch the others around me struggle and sink
I thought to myself "That'll never be me"
I'll be something special for the world to see
My heart is an artist
And my head is a business
I'm not always the smartest
But my soul's settled in this
Journey for joy
But unlike other girls
It doesn't come from a boy
I want to be beautiful
Larger than life
An artist, an actress, not a housewife
If I can't be that,
Then a big CEO
I've outgrown this small town
That serves as my own
Something inside of me's alive and aflame
It's gotten me through years of desperation, self blame
I need it to live
To keep me afloat
It feeds inside me
A last spark of hope
That I could be better
A beautiful me
Something extraordinary
Strong as the sea
Aglow like a fire
A spitting live wire
I'm more than I seem
I'm an everyday queen
My brain is my scepter
My heart is my crown
I need to be special
I need to feel loved
But most of all
I need a niche in the world that fits like a glove
Say that I'm crazy, I'll never be queen
But it's too late for that
Because of my dream
Whatever you do, it matters not now
I'll conquer MY world no matter how
At the end of the day
All I think that I need
Is the dream that is thriving deep inside me
It's abstract and it's quiet
It's hard to describe
But if I didn't believe it
I wouldn't have tried
