Beautiful Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lookin' in my rearview mirror and I see tears
I see all my fears
And what was I afraid of?
Everything I'm made of
It's why I'm here (Oh)
Many long sleepless nights
Didn't feel I could survive
Felt like I had broken wings, I couldn't fly
Doubt and worry fill my mind
Eyes blurry like I was blind

[Chorus]
And now I see that the struggle was beautiful
Beautiful (Beautiful)
Beautiful, it was beautiful (Beautiful)

[Verse 2]
It was all meant for the good, it was for my good
And I thought it was for my bad (For my bad)
Tell me who in the world imagined that
Every heartache and headache and mistake (Oh)
Leave you where I may (Leave you wherе I may, oh)
Now I'm lookin' out of my window (Window)
Free as the leaves whеn the wind blows (Wind blows)
Only happy tears on my pillow (Pillow)
I can see the sky, no more below us
I got joy, I got strength
I got peace and happiness
I won't forget
[Chorus]
I remember the struggle was beautiful
Beautiful (Beautiful)
Beautiful (Beautiful)
It was beautiful (Beautiful)
Beautiful, beautiful (Beautiful)
Beautiful (Beautiful)
It was beautiful (Beautiful)

[Outro]
Beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful (Beautiful)
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful
I'm beautiful

What did Queen Naija say about "Beautiful"?
Genius Answer

I was in the studio with Harmony Samuels. I said that I wanted to do something that sounded different from the rest of my songs. I wanted to do something peaceful, something that you could just stroll along the beach to or really just zone out. That’s why you heard the birds chirping and the harp and all that stuff. And then I just started thinking about my journey here and my whole life and how I was scared of certain things and how much I went through and how I never would’ve thought that it would bring me here to this place. It was for a reason. I didn’t see it back then, but now that I look back, the struggle of everything was just so beautiful. The outcome is so beautiful. And I just thought it was a perfect way to outro the album—it sounds like a beautiful ending.
