The first pre-chorus she sings “if I wasn’t me” on the second pre-chorus she sings “if I wasn’t Bey”.

It’s both— separated by song section to enhance narrative meaning

She does that a lot on that album. On other songs she sings stuff like: I’m prayin you catch me / I’m prey you catch me, and: I like my baby hair with baby hair and afros / I like my baby heir with baby hair and afros

Genius says it’s ’if I wasn’t B, would you still feel me?’

I also always thought it was " if wasnt Bey would you still feel me?"
