Can't Hold Us Down |
| So what am I not s’pposed to have an opinion |
| Should I be quiet just because I’m a woman |
| Call me a bitch cause 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 every 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 have 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! |
| Lettin 'em know we’re gonna stand our ground |
| So lift your hands higher and wave 'em proud |
| Take a deep breath and say it loud |
| Never can, never will, can’t 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 'cause 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 ok, |
| 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 sang |
| 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 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 |
| Repeat Chous x2 |
