It's not that easy being queen



It's not that easy being queen
Having to spend each day in the king's palace
pretending not to be who I am
constantly wishing I could leave and be
leading an openly Jewish life that's free


It's not that easy being queen
I didn't seek the trappings of royalty
I requested nothing when called to the king,
hoping that he would just pass over me.
But I now must bear the burden of wearing the crown.


It's not that easy being queen
My one trick for survival was maintaining silence
No one knew I was among the people Haman slated for genocide
I have kept my true self hidden for so long,
 But I must speak out now.


When I was given the title of queen
It did make me wonder why
Now I accept that this is my mission
I'll plan, pray, and prepare to approach the king
It's a risk I have to take, and whatever the outcome, I accept my fate.
