balance (mufasa interlude)

(James Earl Jones)

Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance
You need to understand that balance
And respect all the creatures
From the crawling ant
To the leaping antelope
We're all connected in the great circle of life

BIGGER

(Beyoncé)

If you feel insignificant, you better think again
Better wake up because you're part of something way bigger
You're part of something way bigger
Not just a speck in the universe
Not just some words in a bible verse
You are the living word
Ahh, you're part of something way bigger
Bigger than you, bigger than we
Bigger than the picture they framed us to see
But now we see it
And it ain't no secret, no

Understand the truth 'bout that question in your soul
Look up, don't look down, then watch the answers unfold
Life is your birthright, they hid that in the fine print
Uh, take the pen and rewrite it
Step out your estimate
Step in your essence and know that you're excellent
Rise (rise), the spirit is teachin'
Oh, I'm not just preachin', I'm takin' my own advice

Let mama let you know (let you know)
Mama's just tryin', I can't get no days off
I don't get no days off
Truly, I'm feelin' it, I had to say that thing twice
Tryin' to be a good wife
Still really hard, I can't lie
But I promised you I will fight, so I fight
If you feelin' frustrated and (oh)
You're sinkin', I'm jumpin' in (oh)
Forgiveness is key because we're fightin' something way bigger
You'll never lose, we are winners
I'll be the roots, you be the tree
Pass on the fruit that was given to me
Legacy, ah, we're part of something way bigger

Bigger, you're part of something way bigger
Bigger than you, bigger than we
Bigger than the picture they framed us to see
Legacy, oh, you're part of something way bigger

Let love be the water
I pour into you and you pour into me
There ain't no drought here
Bloom into our actual powers
I'll be your sanctuary, you just don't know it yet
You just don't know it yet
No matter how hard it gets
You got my blood in ya
And you're gonna rise

You're part of something way bigger
You're part of something way bigger
Bigger than you, bigger than me
Bigger than the picture they framed us to be, yeah
Ooh, ooh, you're part of something way bigger

Understand the truth 'bout that question in your soul (bigger)
Look up, don't look down, then watch the answers unfold (bigger)
Life is your birthright, they hid that in the fine print
Take the pen and rewrite it
Step out your estimate
Step in your essence and know that you're excellent
Rise, the spirit is teachin'
Oh, I'm not just preachin', I'm takin' my own advice

If you feel insignificant, you better think again
Better wake up 'cause you're part of something way bigger
You're part of something way bigger
I'll be the roots, you be the tree
Pass on the fruit that was given to me
Legacy, ah, we're part of something way bigger

the stars (mufasa interlude)

(James Earl Jones)

Let me tell you something my father told me
Look at the stars
The great kings of the past
Look down on us from those stars
So whenever you feel alone, just remember
Those kings will always be up there to guide you
And so will I

FIND YOUR WAY BACK

(Beyoncé)

Daddy used to take me walking down the street
Daddy used to take my hand, say "Follow me"
Daddy used to leave me back home all the time
I got big enough to run around, daddy left me outside

He said, "Find your way back
Big, big world, but you got it, baby
Find your way back, don't let this life drive you crazy
Find your way back, come back home 'fore the street lights on
Find your way back, find your way back"

Daddy used to tell me, "Look up at the stars
It's been a long time, but remember who you are
Circle of life, but one day, I might not make it
Circle of life, but one day, I might not make it"

But you just got to find your way back
Big, big world, but you got it, baby
Find your way back, don't let this life drive you crazy
Find your way back, come back home 'fore the street lights on
Find your way back, find your way back

Daddy used to teach me all my moves
Run around, 'round, had to tie my shoes
Itty bitty child with a smile like you
Wild, wild child look a lot like you
Daddy used to teach me all my tricks
Run around wild, had to get my fix
Daddy used to teach me all my plays
On a marathon, had to run my race

Find your way back
Big, big world, but you got it, baby
Find your way back, don't let this life drive you crazy
Find your way back, come back home 'fore the street lights on
Find your way back, find your way back, yeah

NILE

(Beyoncé & Kendrick Lamar)

[Kendrick Lamar & Beyoncé]
One time I took a swim in the Nile
I swam the whole way, I didn't turn around
Man, I swear
It made me relax when I came down
I felt liberated like free birds, I'm stimulated now
Plunging away 'less my body's on top
All of these currents might cost me my life right now
When danger finds me, it follows with tides
Many miles ahead of me, still I'm in stride
She said

[Beyoncé]
Hey little buddy, where you goin'?
I'm not sure of how to know I'm still motion
You seem regular, I seem regular
These streams may take me out to the ocean

[Kendrick Lamar]
Told myself if I dive in it without precaution of a lifejacket
Then I'll dive in it 'til I'm exhausted and I'm type lacking
Waistline on four deep, senses on four deep
Feel like there's four of me

[Kendrick Lamar & Beyoncé]
One time I took a swim in the Nile (One time I took in a swim in the Nile)
I swam the whole way, I didn't turn around
Man, I swear (I swear)
It made me relax when I came down (When I came down)
I felt liberated like free birds, I'm stimulated now (Stimulated)
Plunging away 'less my body's on top (Stimulated, stimulated now)
All of these currents might cost me my life right now (Right now, right now)
Where danger finds me, it follows with tides (Follows with tides)
Many miles ahead of me, still I'm in stride
That's some good

[Beyoncé]
Got the Nile runnin' through my body
Look at my natural, I'm so exotic
Darker the berry, sweeter the fruit
Deeper the wounded, deeper the roots
Nubian doused in brown, I'm lounging in it
Fountain of Youth, I said I'm drowning in it

[Kendrick Lamar & Beyoncé]
I'm in the Nile, deep in denial
I'm in the Nile, deep in denial

[Kendrick Lamar]
That's some good

new lesson (timon, pumbaa & young simba interlude)

(Billy Eichner, Seth Rogen & JD McCrary)

Who are you?
I'm Pumbaa, this is Timon
Look, kid, bad things happen
And you can't do anything about it, right?
Right
Wrong!
When the world turns its back on you, you turn your back on the world
Only embrace what's next
And turn the "what" into "so what?"
Well, that's not what I was taught
Well then maybe you need a new lesson
Repeat after me, kid
Hakuna Matata

I done leveled up now, view panoramic
None of my fears can't go where I'm headed
Had to cut 'em loose, now I'm loose, break the levy, yeah
I'm 'bout to flood on 'em, flood on a sinner
The rain and thunder gon' fall, go Mutumbo, no, no center
You can't dim my light

[Beyoncé]
'Cause when we walk up in the club
I need them sirens goin' off
Then we can look up in the sky
The tears we cry let us know that we alive, yeah, yeah
It give me goosebumps every time
I threw up my diamond
Together we're big timin'
Don't make me have to remind ya

[Beyoncé]
I got my cup up to the heavens
Another night I won't remember
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever, ever
Dancers dancin' on the bezel
This kinda feelin' unforgettable

Bumpin' Fela on the Puma jet, like we from Lagos (My daughter)
Mansa Musa reincarnated, we on our levels (He 'bout business)
That's a billi', a thousand milli'
First one to see a B out these housing buildings
I be feelin' like Prince in '84 (Ow)
Mike in '79, Biggie in '97, '94 Nas
Ali bomaye, no kumbaya
Just give me the Sommelier (I got it), I'm on La Tâche
Helmet, on a jetski, you know the vibes
Hit my head, forget I'm me (I love it), oh my God
Without the God in the XY (Yeah, yeah)
I'm afraid the whole game would be colonized (Yeah, yeah)
The marathon will be televised for N.I.P.​
'Cause true kings don't die, we multiply, peace

[Beyoncé]
I'm so unbothered, I'm so unbothered
Y'all be so pressed while I'm raisin' daughters
Sons of empires, y'all make me chuckle
Stay in your struggle, crystal blue water
Piña colada-in', you stay Ramada Inn
My baby father, bloodline Rwanda
Why would you try me? Why would you bother?
I am Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter
I am the Nala, sister of Yoruba
Osun, Queen Sheba, I am the mother
Ankh on my gold chain, ice on my whole chain
I be like soul food, I am a whole mood

[Beyoncé]
When we walk up in the club
I need them sirens goin' off
Then we can look up to the sky
The tears we cry let us know that we alive, yeah, yeah
I give 'em goosebumps every time
I throw up my diamond
Together we're big timin'
The children are our reminder

Dancers dancin' on the bezel
This kinda feelin' unforgettable

[Beyoncé]
Forever and ever
Ever, forever

Ever and ever and ever
Time to break it down now

[Childish Gambino]
All praise to
My enemies still praise
Get along
'Cause I've bet on myself
I'm dancin'
Ancestors in my step
Now I move better, ooh
And I live on, on
I feel a change goin' on
Royalty in my blood, run the kingdom
The more money, more problem season
But don't nothin' get you out your way
Rise up higher
Jump, jump and don't look down
You're so far from the ground
You're way...

[Beyoncé]
I got my cup up to the heavens
Another night I won't remember
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever-ever
Dancers dancin' on the bezel
This kinda feelin' unforgettable
Promise this my mood forever
Promise this my mood forever
Forever and ever

You can get it back, don't you waste it (back, don't you waste it)
To grow from your past, gotta face it
Oh yeah (you're the key to the kingdom)

Oh, you're rather empty, don't know what's inside
But you're the key to the kingdom
You're the key to the kingdom
Oh, so believe
Even if you can't see, I'll never leave
'Cause you're the key to the kingdom
You're the key to the kingdom

The other sun and the moon bow for you

OTHERSIDE

(Beyoncé)

If the storm comes, if we burn up
If the wells run dry
You're my reason to believe in
Another life

If it all ends and it's over
If the sky falls fire
Best believe me, you will see me
On the other side

If we wake up, lose our patience
Or even lose our lives, oh
I feel lucky to say that you've been
A friend of mine

Best believe me, you will see me
On the other side

So kale so okale
So kale we
Woah Wao
Wa Wonu Okan mi Lo Oluwa

(Tierra Whack, Beyonce & Moonchild Sanelly feat. Nija)

They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow (buma-bumayaye)
They feel a way, oh wow (buma-bumayaye)
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow (buma-bumayaye)
They feel a way, oh wow (buma-bumayaye)

I was always in the lead
Where you wanna be, I'm who they wanna be
B-E-A-U-T-Y, he never seen so much rage from a queen
Rage from a queen, queen so strong, thought she was a machine
Girl of your dreams, Sinclair regime
Turned to the max, can't forget Maxine
Refer to me as a goddess, I'm tired of being modest
A hundred degrees, the hottest, if we being honest
Ebony and ebonics, black people win
They say we bein' demonic, angel in disguise
I hate I have to disguise it, why you gotta despise it?
Rich in the mind, that's why I'm making deposits
Can't we all empower? It's time to realize it
(They'll never, ever take my power)

They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow
They feel a way, oh wow
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way (hold up), oh wow (wow, wow, wow)
They feel a way (woo), oh wow (wow, wow, wow)

This that rhythm, this that lightning
This that burn, this ain't no perm
This that nappy, this that urb'
This that kinfolk, this that skinfolk
This that war, this that bloodline
On the front line, ready for war, where you gon' run?
Get loose, get loose, get low, get low
Why you get loose, get loose, get low, get low
Oh, gotta protect my braids
Keep it locked in a safe
Don't make me get back to my ways
My power, they'll never take, ah

They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow (wow, wow, wow, wow)
They feel a way (woo), oh wow (wow, wow)

They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They'll never take my power, my power, my power
They feel a way, oh wow (wow, wow)
They feel a way, oh wow (wow, wow)

Ningangabazi amandla am

There will be niks when I'm done

Niyayibona inkinga lento

SCAR

(070 Shake & Jessie Reyez)

[070 Shake]
I wonder how it, how it went so wrong
It's been so dark, yeah, I wanna say my last goodbyes
And I'll be gone for good
Left you guys behind, now I'm so lonely, so lonely, ooh

[Jessie Reyez]
In the jungle, ain't no bible
Showtime, showtime, no recital
Show no fear, boy, where's your spinal?
Where's your backbone? Where's your pyro?
I had to be everything you couldn't be for my survival
My own idol skipped my trial
Took my rifle, rightful title
No remorse, the sin is final
I found all my own disciples
I'm too far gone, downward spiral
No white angels, just albinos
Check my eyes, man, they're all white, man
Roll them back now, where'd the light go?
Guess it died, so cold like Cairo
Crack my neck back like I'm the chiro

[070 Shake]
I want your world at my feet
I want your world at my feet
I've waited too long for this
I've waited too long for this
I wanted the world out to me
I want your world at my feet
I waited too long for this
I need this like oxygen

[070 Shake]
Sorry, sorry
My whole family, I
Slayed you, betrayed you
Don't you grow to be like me
I wander, sink in to the darkest sea
Darkest sea, eeh, ooh

Burn your flame through the night

Trying to keep your head up high
While you're tremblin', that's when the magic happens
And the stars (stars) gather by (gather by)
By your side

Let the light lift your heart up
Burn your flame through the night
