[Intro: Erykah Badu]
Ladies, listen

[Verse 1: Teyana Taylor]
Uh
I wanna be down, I been up for a while
It look better on the Gram when he sit in the crowd
This life is what you make it, ride that wave and don't drown
We wear jewelry while we naked, makin' songs with the sounds
Good mornin' while you're yawning, get it on, and you know me Shooter of the year, home video for fans only
Couple bands in my hands while we Rolls rollin'
Tell 'em [?] to leave my shit in the front then kick the door in
Have my swag, stеal my swag, I get last laugh
Text the group, "Bitch, it's lit," I just snap back
Black tights, Jordan 3's in a snapback
Worе the starter jacket before you bitches had swag
If I’m comin’ how I’m comin’, I don’t half-ass
’Cause R&B Tey will leave your favorite in a trash bag
Live, the tone is what I set it
If you want it, come and get it, don't forget it, uh

[Chorus: H.E.R., Teyana Taylor, Erykah Badu & Brandy]
I wanna be down
With what you're going through
I wanna be down
[Verse 2: H.E.R.]
Watch as I combine all the jewels from the mind
Poetic, profound and lyrically inclined
Spiritually aligned 'cause it's all by design
You can't follow behind, but you can't cheat the grind
It's that rhythm and blues, paint emotional hues
They just misuse it with unethical views, it's for professional use
This only stem from the roots, I'm just enjoying the fruits
And I don't usually flex, I could if I wanted to
Uh, but I'll make an exception though
Filipina queen, my money green like vegetable
Who the first black woman to own a festival?
Barbie without the plastic, a classic collectible
Young and respectable, shady, they skeptical (Yeah)
Say your prayer, Breonna Taylor seemed intentional (Yeah)
Black queens with dreams, beautiful, exceptional (Uh)
Say you wanna be down, but still ain't arrest 'em, though
Yeah

[Chorus: H.E.R., Teyana Taylor, Erykah Badu & Brandy]
I wanna be down
With what you're going through
I wanna be down

[Verse 3: Erykah Badu]
My ass too big, my waist too small
My face too cute, my game too strong
Your man too close, he on my phone
About these bills, put mommy on the phone
He ain't ever coming home, look, I'm about to go in
I'ma get inside these bitches head like a sew-in
I'ma lace the track in the front, make it blend in
Pull that shit back so the glue ain't showing on the track
I'm hoeing, hoes pipe flowing
'Bout to build a little flower bed he can grow in
Got a mothership, we could head to the [?]
Badu World streamin', baby, I'm lookin' through it
Bitch, I'm from the hood, wish a ***** would
Saw your ***** in the club, ***** looking good
I'm a boss and a worker, keep a tight circle
Last name Badu, first name Erykah
[Chorus: H.E.R., Teyana Taylor, Erykah Badu & Brandy]
I wanna be down
With what you're going through
I wanna be down

[Verse 4: Brandy]
Uh-huh, [?] 2020 division
Year 2020, I went with my intuition
Black females, we gon' flourish in these conditions
Border frontline, not in your kitchen, I'm on a mission
B7 out now, go stream it for all your feelings
Blessed to finally see it completed and not deleted
From saving all to wavin' bye to polar, I'm genius
With global climate rising, I keep it cool like anemics
Said I love you then I mean it, ain't no half in between it
Had to look inside that mirror to understand what a queen is
Tryna teach my mini-me that our skin is not a weakness
Can't just settle at the surface 'cause that trauma cut the deepest
Know you beautiful and black, go be proud
Always trust in God, your higher self, take that vow
And if they say the sky is the limit, then buy a cloud
And if they can't see us as an equal, they not allowed
