Eve
Girls Gonna Run That
[Verse 1: Brandy]
Love is a marvelous crime and I'm happy to sin
Look at life in the eyes of God and imagine it's him
Walk on the clouds, jump over the moon, be a star
So proud of my creation, how beautiful you are
If the Earth shifts, know it's just your first kicks in me
And tears in my eyes is the joy that it gives me
Your heartbeat is like the first verse that I wrote
The birth of a goat
I look at you for purpose and hope
All the secrets of the past, let 'em burn into ash
And every bad memory, I'ma turn into cash
Lovе is a set of emotions and you changed my lifе
Sober and a better mom
Yeah, you changed me twice

[Chorus: All]
All the money in the world
(My girls gon' run dat)
The household and the board room
(My girls gon run dat)
Tell the men to bow down now
(My girls gon' run dat)
The kingdom and the crown now
(My girls gon' run dat)
Aye, you getting money, put your hands in the air now
You independent, put your hands in the air now
You a good woman, hands in the air now
You want it all, put your hands in the air now
[Verse 2: Nadine Velazquez]
A broken home couldn't break me
Money, happiness on the surface, short-changed me
You thought it woulda changed me
Pretty girl, insecure, no mirror could save me
Now I'm with a bunch of queens, look at what it made me
I often thought I was lost and just an orphan
I tried to floss my problems away
Lookin' for real love like Mary J, this my life
Now I got a whole lot to say, adjust my mic
From feelin' alone and bein out on my own
Still want the money and fame, we ballin' outta control
And it's a new lease on life
It's queens to the death
It's queens on my right
And it's queens on my left
I'm tryna be the best, give my mother my regards, no regrets
I am just everything I was meant
It's 4 crowns now, and I wear mine proudly
Lost for so long, but I'm glad that I found me

[Chorus: All]
All the money in the world
(My girls gon' run dat)
The household and the board room
(My girls gon run dat)
Tell the men to bow down now
(My girls gon' run dat)
The kingdom and the crown now
(My girls gon' run dat)
Aye, you gettin' money, put your hands in the air now
You independent, put your hands in the air now
You a good woman, hands in the air now
You want it all, put your hands in the air now
[Verse 3: Naturi Naughton]
Adam and Eve ate the apple, I was raised in the rotten one
Sister Act 2, I was saved, but I'm not a nun
Hell got my ankles while Heaven's holding my wrists
If they both pullin' on me, my decision is split
I was born to the pulpit, then became a prisoner
Now I break the shackles and become my own minister
In my church, sometimes, vodka's the holy water
And the offering plates got millions
I'm no longer preachers daughter
Sodom and Gomorrah, pick your poison
You livin' in the land of the sinners makin' the choices
The queer revolution, raisin' our proud voices
And heaven only knows how the rest is gon' go

[Chorus: All]
All the money in the world
(My girls gon' run dat)
The household and the board room
(My girls gon run dat)
Tell the men to bow down now
(My girls gon' run dat)
The kingdom and the crown now
(My girls gon' run dat)
Aye, you getting money, put your hands in the air now
You independent, put your hands in the air now
You a good woman, hands in the air now
You want it all, put your hands in the air now
[Verse 4: Eve]
Faded pictures in a broken glass
Superwoman, I was everything, cape with the wedding ring
Dates with the lingerie, dinner with my ass out
Never had to ask twice, sex 'til you passed out
And I woulda gave you new thrills
Somebody sleepin' in my bed on repeat, playin' Dru Hill
I hate to bust shorty bubble, but we vowed
For better or for worse
Forever over hurt
My ring is on the nightstand while I'm at the night club
Just as a reminder of what a good wife was
Lookin' at the back door while I'm at the front one
A happy life's here, the question is do you want one

[Chorus: All]
All the money in the world
(My girls gon' run dat)
The household and the board room
(My girls gon run dat)
Tell the men to bow down now
(My girls gon' run dat)
The kingdom and the crown now
(My girls gon' run dat)
Aye, you getting money, put your hands in the air now
You independent, put your hands in the air now
You a good woman, hands in the air now
You want it all, put your hands in the air now
