Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address
In a torn-up town, no post code envy
[PreChorus]
But every song's like
Gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
[PreChorus]
But everybody's like
Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your time piece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
[Chorus]
And we'll never be royals (Royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
[Chorus]
Let me be your ruler (Ruler)
You can call me, "Queen Bee"
And baby, I'll rule (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule)
Let me live that fantasy
[Verse 2]
My friends and I, we've cracked the code
We count our dollars on the train to the party
And everyone who knows us knows
That we're fine with this
We didn't come for money
[PreChorus]
But every song's like
Gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
[PreChorus]
But everybody's like
Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your time piece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care we aren't caught up in your love affair
[Chorus]
And we'll never be royals (Royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
[Chorus]
Let me be your ruler (Ruler)
You can call me, "Queen Bee"
And baby, I'll rule (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule)
Let me live that fantasy
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
We're bigger than we ever dreamed
And I'm in love with being queen
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
[Chorus]
And we'll never be royals (Royals)
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
[Chorus]
Let me be your ruler (Ruler)
You can call me, "Queen Bee"
And baby, I'll rule (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule)
Let me live that fantasy
