Lyrics
0:21I woke up this morning, turned the TV on
0:22And everything I see is everything that's wrong
0:24And I'm like "Man, turn that off"
0:28Got enough to worry about without thinking 'bout this
0:30Now my Twitter's blowin' up 'cause I spoke my mind online
0:34Got no time for this
0:36Reality is chasing me, my life is like a list
0:40Wake up, wake up, get up, get up
0:42Hustle, hustle, speed up, speed up
0:45I start my day, take time to pray
0:48No time to get to my haters
0:51Wait, did I just say "haters"?
0:55Not wastin' no bars on you
0:57So much potential inside of me
0:58And I'm taking my opportunity
1:00Today I will walk in my power
1:05And today will be my finest hour
1:09No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
1:11No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
1:15I live for me, I can't live for you
1:17I have a dream, I have a dream and I do believe
1:21This is the last time (last time)
1:24I let you play with my mind (my mind)
1:25'Cause now I know better
1:26Now my phone's blowing up 'cause I spoke my mind last night
1:30Got no time for this
1:31Is my heart still beatin'? (Yeah, my heart's still beatin')
1:35I'm over you, I'm over you
1:37Uh-uh, ain't nobody answering that
1:42Wake up, wake up, get up, get up
1:43Hustle, hustle, speed up, speed up
1:46I start my day, take time to pray
1:48No time to give to what's-his-name
1:51Wait, did I just say "what's-his-name"?
1:55Not wastin' my time on him
1:56I know my king is out there for me
1:58So I'll take my opportunity
2:01Today I will walk in my power
2:07And today will be my finest hour
2:10No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
2:13No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
2:15I live for me, I can't live for you
2:20I have a dream, I have a dream
2:20So today I will walk in my power
2:25And today will be my finest hour
2:30No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
2:33No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
2:35I live for me, I can't live for you
2:38I have a dream, I have a dream and I do believe
2:44Woke up this morning, I pick up my phone
2:46And see this crazy thing as I hear goin' on
2:48And I'm like, "Hold up, they talkin' 'bout me"
2:52Got enough to worry about without thinking 'bout this
2:54I've been black girl magic
2:5620 years I been at it
2:58I'm over you, I got nothing to prove (nothing to prove)
3:04Or maybe I do
3:06Hollywood's sexist and racist
3:07And still we smile throughout it
3:12You'd be surprised what we doin'
3:13The way we show up and kill shit
3:14I love my brown skin so much
3:17Been that way before Wakanda
3:19So love what you thought or love me
3:21And I, I'll never stop so
3:24Today I will walk in my power
3:29And today will be my finest hour
3:33No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
3:36No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
3:38I live for me, I can't live for you
3:43I have a dream, I have a dream
3:44So today I will walk in my power
3:48And today will be my finest hour
3:54No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
3:56No more coulda, shoulda, woulda
3:59I live for me, I can't live for you
4:01I have a dream, I have a dream, yeah
