So what am I not supposed to have an opinion Should I be quiet just because I'm
a woman Call me a bitch cos I speak what's on my mind Guess it's easier for you to
swallow if I sat and smiled When a female fires back Suddenly big talker don't know
how to act So he does what any little boy would do Making up a few false rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me Slanderin' names for popularity It's sad you only get
your fame through controversy But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say
This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect
your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls?
Shout out loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave them proud Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down
Nobody can hold us down Nobody can hold us down Never can, never will
So what am I not supposed to say what I'm saying Are you offended by the message
I'm bringing Call me whatever cos your words don't mean a thing
Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing If you look back in history
It's a common double standard of society The guy gets all the glory the more he can
score While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's okay The guy can get away with it & the girl gets named
All my ladies come together and make a change Start a new beginning for us everybody
sing This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard What do we do girls?
Shout Out Loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down
Check it - Here's something I just can't understand If the guy have three girls then he's
the man He can either give us some head, sex a roar If the girl do the same, then
she's a whore But the table's about to turn I'll bet my fame on it Cats take my ideas
and put their name on it It's airight though, you can't hold me down
I got to keep on movin' To all my girls with a man who be tryin to mack
Do it right back to him and let that be that You need to let him know that his game
is whack And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back
But you're just a little boy Think you're so cute, so coy You must talk so big
To make up for smaller things So you're just a little boy All you'll do is annoy
You must talk so big To make up for smaller things
This is for my girls. This is for my girls all around the world
Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls?
Shout out loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down (sing365)
