Lucy Liu (yeah, yeah)
With my girl, Drew (uh-huh, yeah)
Cameron D and Destiny
Charlie's Angels, come on (come on)
Uh, uh, uh (bring it, bring it)
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
The shoes on my feet, I bought 'em
The clothes I'm wearing, I bought 'em
The rock I'm rockin', I bought it
'Cause I depend on me if I want it
The watch I'm wearin', 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
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 mommas who profit dollars
Throw your hands up at me
All the ladies who truly feel me
Throw your hands up at me
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
Tell me how you feel about this
Who would I want if I would 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?
Bragging on that cash that he gave you is the 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
The shoes on my feet, I bought 'em
The clothes I'm wearing, I bought 'em
The rock I'm rockin', I bought it
'Cause I depend on me if I want it
The watch I'm wearin', 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
All the women who independent (hey, hey)
Throw your hands up at me (oh)
All the honeys who making money
Throw your hands up at me (throw your hands up a me, baby)
All the mommas who profit dollars
Throw your hands up at me
All the ladies who truly feel me
Throw your hands up at me
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
Destiny's Child, what's up?
You in the house? Sho'nuff
We'll break these people off Angel style
Child of Destiny
Independent beauty
No one else can scare me
Charlie's Angels, oh whoa
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 mommas who profit dollars
Throw your hands up at me
All the ladies who truly feel me
Throw your hands up at me
Girl, I didn't know you could get down like that

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
When I first heard this song by Destiny's Child I realized they are one of the greatest R&B/Pop groups of our time. It's not their hot moves, great looks, or fancy footwork, but it's the depth in their music that makes them fully deserving of this title.
Destiny's CHild certainly doesn't "front" with this song, they are very blunt and to the point about just how independent women live. The metaphor, "throw your hands up at me" captures the feminist movement and it's importance in society. The rhetorical questions they ask to the imposing male dominated world prove their conquering independence- "Tell me what you think about me...". They even predict upcoming rhetorical questions, for example "shoes on my feet, I bought it."
This song greatly reminds me of another feminist song- "She Works Hard For the Money." Unlike this song, Destiny's Child doesn't delay in relaying their message. "She Works Hard For the Money" is a bit misleading in the independent lifestyle, and doesn't make a direst point right away, but Destiny's Child certainly rebutles with "ladies it a'int easy bein independent." They're not kidding anyone, it's not easy being independent ladies, but you'll be able to buy the watch other people are wearing. How's that for freedom?
Destiny's Child is a great group and believers in feminist thought. They present this argument in many more of their hit songs such as "Survivor," "Bills, Bills, Bills," and the articulatly named "Bug-A-Boo." Thank you Destiny's Child for everything you do. I must say, YOU GO GIRLS!
Beyonce told me this song was an attack on fucking annoying pseudo-feminists, who go on about being independent but also complain about having to pay their own bills!
I think she's right, this is a great satire of these types of annoying fools and for extra effect, they even wrote it to really annoying backing music, to highlight their point! - Now that's talent!
This song is cool, I like the beat and the words.
kronologikal, what you think is your own opinion but you dont have to be a big deal about it.
i wish all women were independent.....pay for ur own mean bitch. ha ha ha
HIGH 5 TO GIRL POWER, ALTHOUGH I DIG GUYS (MOST OF 'EM R HOT!)
LOL YEA ME TOO
(crickets chirp)
It's not that I don't respect their independence, but what about their songs about how they want a man paying their bills? And I don't just mean Bills, Bills, Bills. There's, say, Soldier. ('They wanna spend that on me') and like twenty other. It's ridiculous.
