Raunchy Raye - Royalty

This is a song of representation
A song of recognition
A dedication
To those
Who come before us
For all their sacrifices
And we raise a glass for us now
To those who strive for greatness
To hopefulness
To family
To dignity
To Royalty
Just know if you believe
You can be anything
If you can see you can
Dream
Make your reality
No one can tell you
Who to be
Feel free to choose
Your destiny
For he's a king
You're a queen
And we all are Royalty
This is for mother's and fathers
Raising son's and daughters
Teaching them humility
Showing them
To help those in need
We are rejecting the negativity
We are family
Not enemies
It takes a village
To raise our youth
Guiding them with truth
Train them up
In the way they should go
Showing them all that they must Know
For the meek shall inherit the Earth
So we must teach our children Their worth
We are warriors and pioneers
Carpenters engineers
Doctors and teachers
Learners and seekers
We are innovative
Endlessly creative
Full of vision
Full of possibilities
Let's put an end to division
Within our communities
It's up to us to free our minds
Seek and ye shall find
Past the knowledge of our ancestry
Every lineage has a legacy
Teach the children of our Inventions
And don't forget to mention
Our natural herbs and healing Methods
Give our children love and lessons
No more self hatred
Your melanin is sacred
Health is wealth
Let's love our selves
Have self respect
Deal with our pain
No need to deflect
Think outside the box
Even if you never had a lot
Your home
Is still your throne
Just know if you believe
You can be anything
If you can see you can
Dream
Make your reality
No one can tell you
Who to be
Feel free to choose
Your destiny
For he's a king
You're a queen
And we all are Royalty
Our enemies
Want us divided
It's time for us
To be United
Put an end
To this violence
We can't just
Sit in silence
Our children are dying
I'm sick
Of mothers crying
We need a resolution
Streets filled with
Confusion
I've come to the conclusion
Love is the solution
Let's
Love one another
Instead of
Killing each other
Stop raping and stealing
It's time to start healing
We will not be enslaved
We are not ashamed
We will not be dismayed
We are no longer be played
No longer pawns
In this game
Of chess
We are giving
Our best
And nothing less
We are blessed
Destined for success
Extend a helping hand
Anytime you can
We are not victims
We can
Change the system
We will not submit
To oppression
We are stronger
No question
Together we stand
Divided we fall
All for one
And one for all
Just know if you believe
You can be anything
If you can see you can
Dream
Make your reality
No one can tell you
Who to be
Feel free to choose
Your destiny
For he's a king
You're a queen
And we all are Royalty
