[00:19.530] So what am I not supposed to have an opinion
[00:22.640] Should I be quiet just because I'm a woman
[00:24.780] Call me a bitch cos I speak what's on my mind
[00:26.750] Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled
[00:29.750] When a female fires back
[00:31.700] Suddenly the target don't know how to act
[00:34.010] So he does what any little boy will do
[00:36.530] Making up a few false rumors or two
[00:39.170] That for sure is not a man to me
[00:41.480] Slandering names for popularity
[00:43.780] It's sad you only get your fame through controversy
[00:46.070] But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say
[00:49.030] This is for my girls all around the world
[00:50.990] Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
[00:53.530] Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
[00:55.800] So what do we do girls?
[00:57.180] Shout louder!
[00:58.430] Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
[01:00.590] Lift your hands high and wave them proud
[01:03.070] Take a deep breath and say it loud
[01:05.380] Never can, never will, can't hold us down
[01:08.310] Nobody can hold us down
[01:10.730] Nobody can hold us down
[01:13.070] Nobody can hold us down
[01:16.330] Never can, never will
[01:17.450] So what am I not supposed to say what I'm saying
[01:20.210] Are you offended by the message I'm bringing
[01:22.630] Call me whatever cos your words don't mean a thing
[01:24.650] Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing
[01:27.690] If you look back in history
[01:29.510] It's a common double standard of society
[01:32.040] The guy gets all the glory the more he can score
[01:34.330] While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
[01:36.940] I don't understand why it's okay
[01:39.320] The guy can get away with it & the girl gets named
[01:41.720] All my ladies come together and make a change
[01:44.110] Start a new beginning for us everybody sing
[01:46.870] This is for my girls all around the world
[01:48.890] Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
[01:51.400] Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
[01:53.740] So what do we do girls?
[01:55.080] Shout louder!
[01:56.320] Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
[01:58.530] Lift your hands high and wave them proud
[02:00.970] Take a deep breath and say it loud
[02:03.200] Never can, never will, can't hold us down
[02:05.990] Check it - Here's something I just can't understand
[02:08.250] If the guy have three girls then he's the man
[02:10.450] He can either give us some head, sex her off
[02:12.900] If the girl do the same, then she's a whore
[02:15.290] But the table's about to turn
[02:16.880] I'll bet my fame on it
[02:17.910] Cats take my ideas and put their name on it
[02:19.840] It's alright though, you can't hold me down
[02:22.460] I got to keep on moving
[02:24.900] To all my girls with a man who be tryiny to mark
[02:27.370] Do it right back to him and let that be that
[02:29.830] You need to let him know that his game is whack
[02:32.090] And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back
[02:35.160] But you're just a little boy
[02:36.590] Think you're so cute, so coy
[02:39.920] You must talk so big
[02:41.700] To make up for small lil' things
[02:43.630] So you're just a little boy
[02:45.640] All you'll do is annoy
[02:49.560] You must talk so big
[02:51.310] To make up for small lil' things
[02:53.190] This is for my girls...
[02:54.620] This is for my girls all around the world
[02:56.470] Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
[02:58.950] Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
[03:01.300] So what do we do girls?
[03:02.650] Shout louder!
[03:03.760] Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
[03:06.080] Lift your hands high and wave them proud
[03:08.500] Take a deep breath and say it loud
[03:10.730] Never can, never will, can't hold us down
[03:13.360] This is for my girls all around the world
[03:15.720] Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
[03:18.190] Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
[03:20.510] So what do we do girls?

[03:23.010] Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground

[03:30.030] Never can, never will, can't hold us down
[03:48.990] Spread the word, can't hold us down
