Let's call this track what it is: an interlude.

It's the most intimate fans have seen the very private couple. The visuals are powerful as Bey's real-life hubby Jay Z acts out scenes where she's kissing his wedding ring and the two are inextricably cuddled up. "Your heart is broken 'cause I walked away/And I know I promised that I couldn't stay baby/Every promise don't work out that way," she sings. But watching him hurting, she sings that she can no longer leave. In this rare ballad, Beyonce recognizes that she may have hurt her husband by claiming she was leaving him after his infidelity. In the video, she recites poetry by Warsan Shire, "If we're gonna heal it, let it be glorious." When she can't figure it out, she asks directly in the song, "Tell me, what did I do wrong?" It's clear that Beyonce wants to move toward reconciliation. "If I wasn't me, would you still feel me?/Like on my worst day? Or am I not thirsty enough?" she asks him. In the seventh song, Beyonce is trying to figure out why her husband cheated. Home footage shows the two happily playing. ("Daddy Lessons" is also the first song where Beyonce talks about her parents' failed marriage since her 2014 song, "Ring Off," dedicated to her mother, Tina.) In this song, however, Beyonce croons: "He told me when he's gone, here's what you do/when trouble comes to town, and men like me come around/oh, my daddy said shoot." In the video, Beyonce also slams rumors that her father had never met her daughter, Blue Ivy. In her first country track ever, the Texas native sings that her dad warned her about men who, like him, cheat.

Getting help from The Weeknd, he sings, "She's stacking money every where she goes.she don't gotta give it up, she professional." Beyonce later joins him, singing of her own professional prowess: "She fights and she sweats those sleepless nights/but she don't mind, she loves the grind."īeyonce gets introspective on this track, seemingly dedicated to her father and one-time manager Matthew Knowles.

In this mid-tempo song, instead of focusing on her failed marriage, Beyonce seems to have refocused her energy on work. Back at home, Bey is joined by none other than a twerking Serena Williams who bounces while she sings, "Middle fingers up/put them hands high/wave it in his face/tell him, boy bye!" She also sheds light on who her man has been cheating with, singing: "He better call Becky with the good hair." In the video, she turns up on a party bus, having the time of her life. Now, Beyonce just wants to dance her cares away with her girlfriends. The tables have turned in this up tempo track. Still angry and wearing a fur, Bey sings, "Who the f*** do you think I is?/You ain't married to no average b**** boy." It seems her man isn't willing to reconcile just yet, even though he's caught as Bey sings, "Beautiful man, I know you're lying/I am not broken, I'm not crying, I'm not crying/You ain't trying hard enough." No one is catching her.īeyonce gets help from rocker Jack White on this song, which she sings in a garage. Beyonce swings a baseball bat into a yellow fire hydrant, a car window and even a security camera. If you get lost in the sweet reggae vibe of the song, you may miss the anger, which is clearly on display in the video. "Hold up/They don't love you like I love you," she sings, almost as a warning.

"I'm prayin' you catch me listening," she sings.īey is now back to being Bey in "Hold Up." Wearing yellow, her golden hair swinging down her back, she's nearly skipping down the street, seeking revenge. In this heart-wrenching ballad, she sings: "You can taste the dishonesty/It's all over your breath as you pass it off so cavalier." Beyonce is watching her man cheat on her, yet she wants him to know that she knows. Standing in a field, wearing a black hoodie to cover up her signature golden curls, Bey is lurking. When we're introduced to Beyonce, she's almost unrecognizable. Beyonce's second visual album "Lemonade" was released Saturday, April 23, 2016.
