Know Mary J. Blige

[Intro]
Lord knows, it just ain't fair
Give me some volume, give me some volume
You know, when hear the word queen
You automatically think of a woman getting everything she wants
But it's not like that at all (At all)
See, being a ruler means sacrifice (Sacrifice)
Most of the time, you get less than what you give (What you give)
So every woman and mother in the world is a queen
Because she sacrificed so much (So much)

[Verse 1]
Get so lonely sometimes
Some times I gotta clear my mind
Can't stop walking on water
Feels like I'm dealing at the altar
Gets so heavy sometimes
Carrying this weight of mine
Looks like the seas are partin'
So I might as well start walkin'

[Chorus]
Oh, Lord, Lord, Lord
They just don't know, know, know
How hard I had to go, go, go
To get through, to get through
They just don't know, know, know, know
Know, know, know
How many times I lost (How many times I lost)
Just so I could win (Ooh, yeah)
They just don't know, know, know, know
Oh, no, no
How many times I've died (How many times I've died)
Just to live again, oh yeah
