Lucy Liu
With my girl Drew Cameron D. and Destiny Charlie’s Angels, come on Uh, uh, uh
[Verse 1: Beyoncé]
Question, tell me what you think about me I buy my own diamonds and I buy my own rings
Only ring your celly when I’m feelin’ lonely When it’s all over, please get up and leave Question, tell me how you feel about this Try to control me, boy, you get dismissed Pay my own car note and I pay my own bills Always fifty-fifty in relationships [Pre-Chorus: Kelly & Farrah]
The shoes on my feet, I bought ‘em
The clothes I’m wearing, I bought ‘em The rock I’m rocking, I bought it ‘Cause I depend on me if I want it
The watch I’m wearing, I bought it
The house I live in, I bought it
The car I’m driving, I bought it
I depend on me (I depend on me) [Chorus: Beyoncé & Michelle] All the women who independent Throw your hands up at me
All the honeys who making money
Throw your hands up at me
All the mamas who profit dollars Throw your hands up at me
All the ladies who truly feel me Throw your hands up at me [Post-Chorus: Beyoncé]
Girl, I didn’t know you could get down like that
Charlie, how your Angels get down like that?
Girl, I didn’t know you could get down like that
Charlie, how your Angels get down like that? [Verse 2: Beyoncé]
Tell me how you feel about this
Do what I want, live how I wanna live I worked hard and sacrificed to get what I get
Ladies, it ain’t easy being independent Question, how’d you like this knowledge that I brought?
Braggin’ on that cash that he gave you is a front
If you’re gonna brag, make sure it’s your money you flaunt
Depend on no one else to give you what you want
