The choices of her runs are so masterful and well placed.

A SONG WITH DOLLY AND BEYONC\u00c9- that is something I never thought would be possible until this album. I like the cheeky lyrics and their moments together in the intro and outro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TYRANT:&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>LYRICS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[Intro: Dolly Parton &amp; Beyonc\u00e9]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Cowboy Carter<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Time to strike a match and light up this juke joint<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>One-one-one by one, you hang them high<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Your hands are steady and you sleep at night<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>How did you turn your heart to stone?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I don&#8217;t want him back, but I can&#8217;t let go<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Hangman, answer me now<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>You owe me a debt, you stole him from me<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I hated you once, I envy you now<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Just tell me how, tell me how<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(d.a. got that\u2014)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[Pre-Chorus]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh, she got that whoa there, hangman got that whoa there<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t act like you don&#8217;t know, giddy up, giddy up (d.a. got that dope)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t pay me in gold, giddy up, giddy up<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Back outside, I&#8217;m on the road, giddy up, giddy up<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the sun goes down (It&#8217;s night-night, hey)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can hear her body howl (In the moonlight, hey)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I feel her eyein&#8217; me like owls (It&#8217;s on sight, hey)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hide your man when the hangman come in town (Ooh, yikes)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[Chorus]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She&#8217;s a tyrant every time I ride it, every time I ride it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make it look so good, try to justify it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boy, you know they&#8217;re lookin&#8217; for me, how we gonna hide it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ride it like hydraulics, I am such a tyrant<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every time I ride it, every time I ride this<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don&#8217;t like to sit up in the saddle, boy, I got it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just relax, I got this, I got that exotic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hips are so hypnotic, I am such a tyrant<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[Verse]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Send me some shots, are you with me or not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throw it back, shoot up the bar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then tell the law we don&#8217;t remember nothin&#8217; after that<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scot-free (Scot-free), whole city after me<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you seen her? 5&#8217;9&#8221;, thick and fine, what a tragedy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hey, hey, ridin&#8217; you while we tryna get away<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ridin&#8217; you while we tryna catch a wave<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s so sexy and I know it, and I ain&#8217;t afraid to show it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Baby, I&#8217;m goated, baby, I&#8217;m glowin&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hey, hey, on the run, run<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tap me on the shoulder when you reload the gun<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[Chorus]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tyrant every time I ride it, every time I ride it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make it look so good, try to justify it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boy, you know they&#8217;re lookin&#8217; for me, how we gonna hide it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ride it like hydraulics, I am such a tyrant<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[Bridge]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>How did you get used to the haunting?

I really enjoy the unison beginning and picking out Dolly\u2019s twang in the stacks. I always like some echoes or ad-libs to fill some space. She gave that falsetto on the bridge, and I was floatinggg. Unison in the outro, yes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TYRANT:&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>MUSIC<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The music is where my main gripes with this song lie. I think the strings + trap beat make sense for this project- and follows the running theme of exploration of \u201ccountry\u201d sounds with other elements. However, FOR ME, it\u2019s not my favorite combo- and that distracts me for the other elements of this song I do like :\/ liked the bridge tho!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SWEET&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>\u2b50\ufe0f<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;HONEY&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>\u2b50\ufe0f<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;BUCKIN\u2019 FT SHABOOZEY:<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;INTRO&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This one is easily the one that grew on me the most!

PHARELL WILLIAMS- THE COMPOSITION!! SIR! Okay, okay let\u2019s start with SWEET- I love B\u2019s vocal in this and Shaboozey\u2019s verse fits super nicely in here. A lot of the color in this part comes from the music but she\u2019s still serving attitude. The laugh transition into HONEY is sooo nice as Beyonc\u00e9 gives us a floaty and dreamy verse. PHARELL ON THE CHORUS OF HONEY\u2014so so pleasing to the ear! He continues in with his ad-libs backing B in BUCKIN\u2019 brining back the attitude from SWEET and turning it up. I love this song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SWEET&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>\u2b50\ufe0f<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;HONEY&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>\u2b50\ufe0f<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;BUCKIN\u2019:&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>MUSIC<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THE MUSIC OF THIS IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL. AGAIN, Pharrell is credited on this track, so it makes sense that the production of this song is IT. The sounds and the choicess- you can pick up a different element each listen its incredible. THE BEAT is sooooo nice in SWEET it hits hard. THE TRANSITIONS into HONEY and BUCKIN\u2019 are smooth\u2014HONEY floated and then into BUCKIN\u2019 we get slapped back into ANOTHER BEAT and this one punches. The horse clomping backing in the mix whaaat. DYNAMIC SONG! HAS ME MOVING EVERYTIME.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AMEN:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NOW THAT WE HAVE SINNED, WE BACK AT THE CHURCH! This feels so full circle! These last 8 tracks have been non-stop- energy flow dance transition- now we must repent and remember where we started! There\u2019s like this muffled horn-like sound backing with and some piano that a really like as B is GIVING US VOCALS! THE STACKS again creating that church feeling we opened with. As we move into the outro were giving an ending playing off the beginning SWELLING VOCALS, WE SWTICH TO THAT ORGAN!
