Letra Cant hold us down
Album: Stripped
Artista: Christina Aguilera
|
(feat. Lil´ Kim)
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 the target don´t know how to act
So he does what any little boy will 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 louder!
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
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 louder!
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.
Lil´ Kim:
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 her off
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 aiight 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 small lil´ things
So you´re just a little boy
All you´ll do is annoy
You must talk so big
To make up for small lil´ 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 louder!
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.
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 louder!
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
Spread the word, can´t hold us down. |
