Lyrics
Ambitions and accolades, what did you go do today?
How did you go spend your day?
I work hard, I'm getting paid
My schedule was full today, I'm 'bout to go all the way
I set off and hit the stage, ready to go do my thing
Well baby, my day was good
I worked hard and knocked on wood
I skipped meals and got no sleep
But this was the life for me
You working, Ms. Destiny
You working, Ms. Destiny
You working, Ms. Destiny
You working, Ms. Destiny (uh)

Cook, cook, you know I like to cook (yeah)
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook
Cook, cook, you know I like to cook (yeah)
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook (woo)
Cook, cook, you know I like to cook (woo)
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook (yeah)
Cook, cook, you know I like to cook (flexin')
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook

Go 'head, bitch, go do your thing
You perfect in every way
You move past when others stay
You make moves and play the game
Ms. D, I'm already queen
I put that on everything
My mama she raised me good
I'm chic but I'm always hood
My manners impeccable
I'm always respectable
There's eloquence in my speech
I practice but never preach

My name is Ms. Destiny (flexin')
I go hard in everything
I bring out the best in me
And do what is best for me
I excel, I'm excellent
My melanin's Heaven-sent (ayy)
Got all of my haters bent
They gag, and I'm still content (uh)

Cook, cook, you know I like to cook
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook (yeah)
Cook, cook, you know I like to cook
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook (woo)
Cook, cook, you know I like to cook (woo)
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook (yeah)
Cook, cook, you know I like to cook (flexin')
Cheffin' in that kitchen, I don't need no cookbook
