Lyrics

I'm bout to let the lion out the cage now (Whoo) I'mma tear it all the way down Recognize I'm the power and the princess Yeah- born wild imma stay wild.

Got a few walls Imma break down Uh huh High Scores Imma take down Run and tell the king better kiss the ring I'm running thangs on this playground

Here I come kicking straight through your door I'm a legend and a Lady You ain't ready for the war For the war

Here I come burning everything Down A woman brought in Don't make a lady take you out Now

You better bow down when you see the queen Clear the way when you see the queen Betta bow down- kiss the ring You ain't ever seen a boss like me Here comes the queen Here comes the queen Here comes the queen Betta bow down- kiss the ring You ain't ever seen a boss like me

I'm feeling like a Goddess, to be honest I'm feeling too colossal to be modest It's time to light a fire, let the path blaze We da future and can't nobody ever stop us

They wanna give me hell cause I'm female Yeah Hide the devil in the details But I was born to reign this is in my veins And I will never lose, Imma Prevail

The future is female Yeah we gonna run it The future is female You don't know what's coming
