[Verse 1]
First thing in the morning
Head scarf, house shoes on
You hum a little melody
Coffee, praise, then gone
You hold me when I'm empty
Laugh when I act tough
You pray over my foolishness
Still say I'm enough
[Chorus]
You my Black Queen, my forever
God’s hands all over your frame
You my answered prayer in the flesh
I’ll die saying your name
From your crown down to your feet, love
Every scar, every shade, every strand
You my Black Queen, my forever
One of God’s gifts to a black man
[Verse 2]
Sunday dress and side-eye
You see right through my pride
Finger on that wedding ring
“Baby, we gon’ survive”
You ride through every season
Storms and sunshine too
World can keep on doubting us
I still choose you
[Chorus]
You my Black Queen, my forever
God’s hands all over your frame
You my answered prayer in the flesh
I’ll die saying your name
From your crown down to your feet, love
Every scar, every shade, every strand
You my Black Queen, my forever
One of God’s gifts to a black man
[Bridge]
If my knees get weak
You the strength in my bones (oh yeah)
If I ever lose my way
You’re the way back home
We gone wrinkle, we gone gray
Still I’ll hold your hand
‘Cause I know who you are
And whose you am
[Chorus]
You my Black Queen, my forever
God’s hands all over your frame
You my answered prayer in the flesh
I’ll die saying your name
From your crown down to your feet, love
Every scar, every shade, every strand
You my Black Queen, my forever
One of God’s gifts to a black man
