Official Music Lyrics
Through the Fire Lyrics
Through the Fire
I remember the heavy load, the cold on the street
The red hot coal beneath my feet
I was climbing out of the ashes while they stood and stared
A world full of people, but nobody cared
Haunted with a heart of stone, a house built of glass
Watching the shadows as the lonely hours pass.
But the fire didn’t take me, it only made me gold
I’m telling the story that was never supposed to be told
From the edge of the canal to the light of the day
I’ve walked through the valley and I found a way
I’m a Warrior rising, I’m the queen of my soul
I survived the fire and the red hot coal.
Then came the steel, the flash of the knife
A bully in the hallway, the weight of my life
I ran to the water, I hid in the dark
Carrying the secrets and the invisible mark
Then the game turned vicious, the passport, the trap
But I’m drawing the lines on a brand new map.
The cutlass was swinging, the fear was so real
But they didn’t know that I was made out of steel
I traded the trauma for the doctorate shield
I took all the harvest from the bitter field
No more hiding in shadows, no more running in fear
The verdict is freedom—and I’m finally here.
Through the fire…
Out of the ashes…
I rose to the top
I’m now a Queen
Trapped in the Game Lyrics
I thought I found my man
But you saw me as your game plan
You played savior, and calculated the cost
I was winning for your future, my own life was being lost
You looked at me and saw a gate, a ticket, and a key
You never wanted my heart you just wanted the me that sets you free
You were positioning the pieces, you were moving every pawn
I was dancing in the twilight, you were waiting for the dawn
To take what wasn’t yours, to use the love I gave
But a Warrior doesn’t stay a ghost inside a vicious grave
It was a Vicious Game HEI
In a traitor’s name HEI
You crossed the line
But the power is now mine
I survived the setup, I survived the lie
I’m the one who’s reigning while your games go dry
I broke the trap! HEI
I burned the map HEI
I’m the Warrior Queen and I’m taking it all back
Now the trap is empty and the bird has flown
I’m the CEO of the empire I own
I traded your name
You’re the loser in the game
It was a Vicious Game HEI
In a traitor’s name HEI
You crossed the line
But the power is now mine
I survived the setup, I survived the lie
I’m the one who’s reigning while your games go dry
I broke the trap HEI
I burned the map HEI
I’m the Warrior Queen and I’m taking it all back
It was a Vicious Game HEI
In a traitor’s name HEI
You crossed the line
But the power is now mine
I survived the setup I survived the lie
I’m the one who’s reigning while your games go dry
I broke the trap HEI
I burned the map HEI
I’m the Warrior Queen and I’m taking it all back
The game is over
I’m not the prize
I’m the Queen
Trapped in the Game
The Struggle is Won Lyrics
The Struggle is Won
I spent a lifetime sitting by the fence
Waiting for a reason that didn’t make sense
They tried to hide my scars and they tried to play the game
They tried to ruin my identity and they tried to take my name
But the misery at home tormented my bones
I had to find a sanctuary that I could call my own
And now the time has come the struggle is won
I’m standing in the light of the morning sun
From the hunger hallway, to the highest stage
I’m the author of the fire, I’m the owner of the page
I’m a Warrior, a Healer, a Queen from the rain
The verdict is victory and I’ve broken the chain
I traded in the weapon for an educational shield
I took the hidden secrets and I made the shadows yield
Four degrees of armor and a heart of pure gold
The greatest story ever written is finally being told
I didn’t just survive it, I reclaimed my throne
Now I’m walking in a power that the world has never known
And now the time has come the struggle is won
I’m standing in the light of the morning sun
From the hunger hallway, to the highest stage
I’m the author of the fire, I’m the owner of the page
I’m a Warrior, a Healer, a Queen from the rain
The verdict is victory and I’ve broken the chain
Fueled by compassion
Driven by the truth
Reclaiming the legacy HEI
And living out the proof HEI
The pinnacle is here.
The Queen has been crowned
And the fire is now the light
Ripple of Grace Lyrics
From the shifting sand
Carrying secrets of the land
From where I walked through the flame
Now the wind is calling my name
From the broken floor
I found the key to the door
It’s a Ripple of Grace
I see the reflection in my face
From the highest peaks to the rising tide
There’s a power in purpose that I won’t hide
Compassion is the fire, and service is the light
I’m reigning in the morning, after a long night
I stood on the cliff, now I know why
In the early dawn, I saw the glow of the sky
My story is bigger than me
The healer is healed and the spirit is free
I’m passing the torch and I’m leading the way
Living the impact of a brand new day
One heart fuels the cause
One life breaks the cycle of the past
It’s a legacy that’s built to last
A mandate A mission
A queen on a vision
Fueled by compassion
Led by the light
The road is clear
The victory is now
It’s a Ripple of Grace
I see the reflection in my face
From the highest peaks to the rising tide
There’s a power in purpose that I won’t hide
Compassion is the fire, and service is the light
I’m reigning in the morning, after a long night
I stood on the cliff, now I know why
In the early dawn, I saw the glow of the sky
My story is bigger than me
The healer is healed and the spirit is free
I’m passing the torch and I’m leading the way
Living the impact of a brand new day
One heart fuels the cause
One life breaks the cycle of the past
It’s a legacy that’s built to last
A mandate A mission HEI
A queen on a vision HEI
Fueled by compassion
Led by the light
The road is clear
The victory is now
Ripple of Grace Lyrics
Don’t Settle Lyrics
Don’t Settle
HEI Listen closely
This is a lesson in life-strategy
Before the vows check the foundation
Because a partnership requires two pillars not one pillar and a shadow
A man who is looking for a home in you
Before he’s built a home within himself is a danger to your future
If he’s leaning on your light just to see his own path
He isn’t looking for a partner he’s looking for a provider
If he cannot stand on his own two feet
He is in no position to walk beside yours
Discernment is your greatest shield
Don’t sow your seeds in an unplowed field
If he’s looking for a mother or a ticket or a trade
Stop right there Before the vows are made
DON’T SETTLE HEI
If he isn’t in a POSITION OF STRENGTH
DON’T SETTLE HEI
If he’s still looking for a length
To pull you down to his level of need
A king must provide before he can lead
If he cannot protect what he cannot provide
He has no business standing by your side HEI
Independence is the entry fee for a healthy union
Strength is the requirement for a lasting communion
A real man brings his own weight to the scale
He doesn’t ask you to be the wind for his broken sail
Check the stability before you sign the name
Or you’ll be the one losing in a vicious game
Discernment is your greatest shield
Don’t sow your seeds in an unplowed field
If he’s looking for a mother or a ticket or a trade
Stop right there Before the vows are made
DON’T SETTLE HEI
If he isn’t in a POSITION OF STRENGTH
DON’T SETTLE HEI
If he’s still looking for a length
To pull you down to his level of need
A king must provide before he can lead
If he cannot protect what he cannot provide
He has no business standing by your side HEI
This is the mandate
This is the standard
Protect your peace
Protect your future
This is a message from the Queen
HEI This is a message from the Queen
HEI This is a message from the Queen
Ready for the Storm Lyrics
Listen to me
Being one doesn’t mean becoming none
Love is a partnership but independence is your insurance policy
Build your own floor before the ceiling falls HEI
You’re waking up early you’re working for two
Doing everything that a good wife
should do
But in the middle of the we don’t lose the I
Don’t let your own dreams wither and die
Because the heart is a season and seasons can change
And a life with no backup is a life you can’t rearrange
Take an hour for the book take a moment for the goal
Put a dollar in the pocket of your own soul
If the love turns cold and the house goes quiet
You need to be ready for the storm and the riot
Don’t wait for the fall HEI
Get your degree HEI
Stand ten feet tall HEI
If he walks out the door and he leaves you behind
Don’t let homeless and broke be the state of your mind HEI
Save your own money protect your own name
So you’re never a victim in a vicious game HEI
School is your sanctuary a career is your shield
Don’t be a guest in your own home field
A man can fall out of love a man can just go
And if you have nothing you have nowhere to grow
Be his partner be his light give him your best
But keep your own foundation for the ultimate test
Take an hour for the book take a moment for the goal
Put a dollar in the pocket of your own soul
If the love turns cold and the house goes quiet
You need to be ready for the storm and the riot
Don’t wait for the fall HEI
Get your degree HEI
Stand ten feet tall HEI
If he walks out the door and he leaves you behind HEI
Don’t let homeless and broke be the state of your mind HEI
Save your own money, protect your own name
So you’re never a victim in a vicious game HEI
Self-reliance is not a betrayal
It is a requirement
Rise to the top
Get the degree
Save the check
Reign in your own power
Yeahhhh
Don’t wait for the fall HEI
Get your degree HEI
Stand ten feet tall HEI
If he walks out the door and he leaves you behind HEI
Don’t let homeless and broke be the state of your mind HEI
Save your own money, protect your own name
So you’re never a victim in a vicious game HEI
Save your own
Save your own
Protect your own name
Protect your own name
If he walks out the door and he leaves you behind HEI
Don’t let homeless and broke be the state of your mind HEI
Save your own money, protect your own name
So you’re never a victim in a vicious game HEI
Ready for the Storm
Look at Her Now Lyrics
Look at Her Now
Take a good look
The view is different from the top
They expected a tragedy but they got a legacy instead
They calculated the failure and they bet on the fall
They thought that the silence would be the end of it all
But a queen doesn’t crumble she just builds a new floor
She finds the keys and she opens the door
She trades the empty for the executive chair
And start breathing a different kind of air
I hope they’re watching I hope they see
The version of power that was born to be
Check the record check the screen check the crown
The only one rising is the one they tried to keep down
LOOK AT HER NOW HEI
She’s at the peak HEI
She’s the legacy HEI
That the small-minded seek
She’s a Leader a Queen in the light
She’s the sun rising up after their long night
Do you see the title Do you see the accolades
She’s the only one winning and the whole world can see HEI
Go tell the critics go tell the past
That the foundation was built to last
She doesn’t need the favor she doesn’t need the name
She’s the one who officially ended the game
She’s the Boss she’s the Vision she’s the gold in the mine
And every day they see her they see her shine
I hope they’re watching I hope they see
The version of power that was born to be
Check the record check the screen check the crown
The only one rising is the one they tried to keep down
LOOK AT HER NOW HEI
She’s at the peak HEI
She’s the legacy HEI
That the small-minded seek
She’s a Leader a Queen in the light
She’s the sun rising up after their long night
Do you see the title Do you see the accolades
She’s the only one winning and the whole world can see HEI
The pinnacle is secure
The victory is verified
She’s at the top
Not just surviving
Sovereign
