[Verse 1]
Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby, they're tumblin' down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standin' in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

[Pre-Chorus]
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out

[Chorus]
'Cause everywhere we lookin' now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Haiti, I can see your halo
You know you're my savin' grace
You're everything we need and more
It's written all over your face
Haiti, we can feel your halo
I pray it won't fade away

[Post-Chorus]
Halo
I can see your halo
I can see your halo
I can see your halo

[Verse 2]
You hit me like a ray of sun
Burnin' through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like fallin'
Gravity can't begin
To pull me back to the ground again

[Pre-Chorus]
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out

[Chorus]
Everywhere we lookin' now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Haiti, we can see your halo
You know you're my savin' grace
You're everything we need and more
It's written all over your face
Haiti, we can see your halo
I pray it won't fade away

[Post-Chorus]
Your halo
I can see your halo
I can see your halo
I can see your halo
Your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can see your halo

[Chorus]
Everywhere we lookin' now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Haiti, we can see your halo
You know you're my savin' grace
You're everything we need and more
It's written all over your face
Haiti, we can feel your halo
I pray it won't fade away

In the twenty-first century, no pop star was as poised, as polished, or as generally fierce as Beyoncé. She scored early success with Destiny’s Child, who started out as a sexier and sassier (if less adult) version of TLC, then steadily became more and more of a vehicle for Beyoncé’s operatic vocals and general diva-tude, which may have been the plan all along.

Whether appearing in TV spots, co-starring in films like Dreamgirls, or killing it every night on stadium tours, Beyoncé was omnipresent in the 2000s. Almost everybody, Beygency member or otherwise, loved shiny, hip-hop-fueled hits like “Crazy in Love”, and “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)”. Moving into the 2010s, Beyoncé fights on, gaining more and more traction in pop culture with her work and music.

She has made a significant impact upon the music landscape in general with her recent albums 4 and BEYONCÉ, which explored complex themes like motherhood, feminism, marriage, sexuality, and doubt in a greater depth. With Lemonade, she went a step further—the fierce, intimate exploration of marriage, infidelity, and forgiveness was her most personal and musically daring album yet.
