Thompson, Jasmine - Royals Lyrics






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 postcode envy

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.
Everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair.

And we'll never be royals.
It don't run in our blood,
That kind of luxe just ain't for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz.
Let me be your ruler,
You can call me queen Bee
Baby I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy.

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.

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.
Everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair

And we'll never be royals.
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz.
Let me be your ruler,
You can call me queen Bee
Baby I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy.

Ooh ooh oh
Everything we ever dreamed,
And I'm in love with being queen.
Ooh ooh oh
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair.

And we'll never be royals.
It don't run in our blood
That kind of luxe just ain't for us.
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler,
You can call me queen Bee
Baby I'll rule
Let me live that fantasy.

Ooh ooh oh oh
Let me live that fantasy.

    The guitarist is good but personally i don't think it fits at all. Too playful for this song, that is very minimalist instrumentally. Would have much rather preferred her to do this song a capella

    As a producer, my insights come from a different perspective than most, but aren't intended to be hurtful; art is subjective and there is a thing called "freedom of speech" protected in our constitution. As clearly stated previously,, I'm simply not a fan of a career built on covers, but certainly useful vocal training tools or an earned privilege by extremely accomplished artists who fully understand how to make a version that takes on their own style and veers completely from the original. I believe the original composer and musicians deserve the full credit for the songs they write andyhe delivery and sales of their work and I won't change my mind anytime soon. It has very little to do with Ms.Thompson personally, but rather a professional position that has enabled me to assist musicians / vocalists in establishing a great deal of confidence, success personal growth and fulfillment and ultimately, real joy. by being willing to take risks with their own life experiences that resonate with greater value than repeating that of others.

    R.... b....

    How kind of you Christy Whitesell to provide us with those additional insights and for sharing with us your, as you see it, "qualifications" for making your pronouncements - albeit doing so this time using another account name. You`re a "producer" in addition to being a professional ceramic artist? Remarkable... While the constitution of the United States has of course nothing to do with those of us who are not American, most of us I`m sure endorse the "thing called freedom of speech".That very thing of course is what allows us to feel we are entitled to take exception to those statements which we find to be rather snide, pretentious, pompous in the extreme, condescending, actually rather self serving and which, as written, don`t necessarily make for cohesive easily understood reading - x 3. Despite my twice previously pointing out to you - here and on another page - that this young singer has in fact been writing her own material for some time (once again, to be readily found at the front of her channel) and that a cd entirely of her own material is due for release in a few months, here you go yet again with your "career built on covers" bleat. How many just barely *16 year old* singers do you know gradually becoming recognised, who are exclusively, consistently writing their own material and who simply never refer to the material of others? I have every reason to be of the belief that this singer`s output of her own material will steadily increase as she grows older (time is after all very much on her side is it not?), and no reason to think otherwise. As to your reference to artists "who fully understand how to make a version that takes on their own style and veers completely from the original", I would refer you as just one instance to Miss Thompson`s version of Bastille`s "Pompeii", which she uploaded at age 12. Anything more original in a cover and more divorced *from* the original would be hard to imagine - the beat slowed completely, and the song re-imagined as a ballad... You need to get over yourself, start paying much closer attention, and flap those gums a lot less, sister.

    te amoooooooo

    Jony Delgado Careaga latin?

    Elsie Felty she was about 13 now but I think she's 16 now

  54. S.... ....

    That guitar is fire, damn! Your vocals just make it a spectacular duo!

  55. L.... ....

    It's so amazing how mature she is despite her name was 'tantrumjas' lmao

  56. C.... W....

    I suppose it's just to be accepted that you ARE in fact the "cover queen." I know someone who covers with far more musical and intellectual depth but if indeed that is your magic, i've no doubt you'll find something to kick in that makes your own renditions special beyond just hitting each note. I hate myself for even coming close to knocking such a valuable, gifted young woman and it really isn't my intent. I actually want the best for you and not sure you are being represented in a way that can provide you with a lifetime of music. But that's for you to say really and as long as you're happy, all that matters. I do think, however, if and when you get around to originals, you're going to cut right through a whole additional layer allowing even more magic to erupt. Beautiful!

    C.... W....

    God woman, you`re absolutely priceless... The second missive of its kind from you directed to this singer that I`ve stumbled on in around four weeks. I suppose it has to be accepted that you ARE in fact the queen of the snide, sniping back handed "compliment". "I know someone who covers with far more musical & intellectual depth..." "you`ll find something to kick in that makes your own renditions special beyond just hitting each note.." etc. Epic condescending put downs, followed by some patently insincere soothing assurances declaring that "I want the best for you". Then going on to "when you get around to originals..." etc, when she has in fact been writing originals for a very long time indeed. Originals that are sitting in plain view at the front of her channel for anyone to see. Anyone that is, willing to investigate before flapping their gums. Pray desist madam - you`re a profound embarrassment to yourself.

  57. N.... P....

    can you do a cover of little mix-secret love song?

  58. D.... H....

    thats make me sleep in peace :)

    Tips on recording? Yours are awesome and I'm trying to learn. Thanks Jasmine!

    N.... G....

    I would say use a good microphone if you have one and if not just make sure your recording device like a phone has good audio and don't let your nerves put you down. Also maybe use headphones if it helps. Hope it helps
