[English]

This is for all my ladies who don't get hyped enough (hey, ladies)

If you've been done wrong, then this your song, so turn it up

(Turn it up for me, uh, uh)

I wanna go where the baddest girls are from (uh, uh)

Might be another planet

Maybe, that's where mother nature made me (whoo)

Something about that water tastes like fun (yeah, yeah)

My girls make it rain confetti, sweet on your tongue

(Beep, beep, beep) I'm outside your door, so let's go, don't let that

(Beep, beep, beep) have you feeling low, when you're grown, you got the

It's you and me, how it should be

This is for all my ladies who don't get hyped enough

If you've been done wrong, then this your song, so turn it up

One time for all my ladies, you're lookin' good as what

So tell 'em, "Bye, bye," 'cause it's your time to turn it up

Thi-thi-this for the girls with that light inside

They spin around you like satellite

Yeah, you the baddest, all day and night

I'll give you flowers 'til the end of time

(Uh) this your moment, go get it

(Uh) forget that boy, and don't sweat it (oh)

I'll always be your ride or die, so

One time for all my ladies (all my ladies), you're lookin' good as what

So tell 'em, "Bye, bye," 'cause it's your time to turn it up (step out, done wrong)

All my ladies now (now), now, ow, ow, ow, oh
