Why do you think I have to depend on you?
Who do you think is playing who?
You must think that I do need you
So here's the question tell me
Why you think us ladies can't pay our dues?
Respect the game, it's not up to you
Baby, I don't need you, all I need is me
It's true, I'm digging on you
Let me explain myself to you
I don't need anything from you
I do for me, that's how I met you
You saw I had my own jewels
You thought you'd make yourself cool
But you knew I had before you
That's why I can live without you
I refuse to let you play me
'Cause I own this game
Ladies, are you feeling me?
'Cause I don't need nothing from you
Why do you think I have to depend on you?
Who do you think is playing who?
You must think that I do need you
So here's the question tell me
Why you think us ladies can't pay our dues?
Respect the game, it's not up to you
Baby, I don't need you, all I need is me
Why can't you let me be?
This ain't about you, baby
Why can't you see that I'm me?
I'm feeling you but it's up to me
If you can't get down with me
You played the game, you played one with me
I make the rules so they won't hurt me
And now you know I will protect me
I'm grown up, throw things my way
Don't need nothing from you
Tell me what you think of me
'Cause I don't need no type of game from you
Why do you think I have to depend on you?
Who do you think is playing who?
You must think that I do need you
So here's the question tell me
Why you think us ladies can't pay our dues?
Respect the game, it's not up to you
Baby, I don't need you, all I need is me
If you feeling it, come on and let me see your hands
All my girls, come on get up now
All my girls, come on get up now
All my girls, come on get up now
All my girls, come on get up now
If your feeling me and your digging me
All my girls, come on get up now
If your digging me and your feeling me
All my girls, come on get up now
All my girls, come on get up now
Why do you think I have to depend on you?
Who do you think is playing who?
You must think that I do need you
So here's the question tell me
Why you think us ladies can't pay our dues?
Respect the game, it's not up to you
Baby, I don't need you, all I need is me
Why do you think I have to depend on you?
Who do you think is playing who?
You must think that I do need you
So here's the question tell me
Why you think us ladies can't pay our dues?
Respect the game, it's not up to you
Baby, I don't need you, all I need is me
