Can't Hold Us Down [Persian translation]

So, what am I not supposed to have an opinion

Should I keep quiet just because I'm a woman

Call me a bitch 'cause I speak what's on my mind

Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled

When a female fires back

Suddenly big talker don't know how to act

So he does what any little boy would do

Making up a few false rumors or two

That for sure is not a man to me

Slandering names for popularity

It's sad you only get your fame through controversy, so sad

But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say

This is for my girls all around the world

Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth

Thinking all women should be seen not heard

So what do we do, girls, shout louder

Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground

Lift your hands higher and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will, can't hold us down

Nobody can hold us down

(Hold us down)

Nobody can hold us down

(Hold us down)

Nobody can hold us down

(Hold us down)

Never can, never will

So, what am I not supposed to say, what I'm saying

Are you offended with the message I'm bringing

Call me whatever 'cause your words don't mean a thing

'Cause you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing

If you look back in history

It's a common double standard of society

The guy gets all the glory, the more he can score

While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore

I don't understand why it's okay

The guy can get away with it, the girl gets named

All my ladies come together and make a change

And start a new beginning for us, everybody sing

This is for my girls all around the world

(Round the world)

Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth

(Respect your worth)

Thinking all women should be seen not heard

So what do we do, girls, shout louder

Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground

So lift your hands higher and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will, can't hold us down

Check it

Here's something I just can't understand

If a guy have three girls then he's the man

He can even give us some head and sex her raw

If the girl do the same, then she's a whore

But the table's about to turn

I'll bet my fame on it

Cats take my ideas and put they name on it

It's aight though, you can't hold me down

I got to keep on moving

To all my girls with a man who be trying to mack

Do it right back to him and let that be that

You need to let him know that his game is whack

And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back

You're just a little boy

Think you're so cute so coy

You must talk so big

To make up for smaller things

Said you're just a little boy

All you do is annoy

You must talk so big

To make up for smaller things

This is for my girls

This is for my girls all around the world

Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth

(Respect your worth)

Thinking all women should be seen not heard

So what do we do, girls, shout louder

(Shout louder)

Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground

(Stand our ground)

So lift your hands higher and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will, can't hold us down

This is for my girls all around the world

(For my girls)

Who have come across a man that don't respect your worth

(Around the world)

Thinking all women should be seen not heard

So what do we do girls, shout louder

Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground

So lift your hands higher and wave 'em proud

Take a deep breath and say it loud

Never can, never will, can't hold us down

Spread the word

Can't hold us down

Yeah, we here, we back again

Yeah, Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera, yeah

Can't hold us down
