You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead
You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead
[Nicki Minaj]
Ay yo, trophy wife? Aww, you won me
Until you had to find out it's on me
Now you benched, aww, your bum knee
Now I'm the bad guy, call me Chun-Li (ooh)
'Cause you was slippin', yep, you clumsy
And everything I peep, can't just unsee
Sips tea, and it's unsweet
Respect bad gyal when mi done speak
Now we shooting the shot like drive-by
Why you had to make me go call up my side guy?
Can't let a f-boy eff up my nice vibes
Yo Ariana, come let me give you a high five
[Ariana Grande]
The light is coming to give back everything the darkness stole
(You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead)
The light is coming to give back everything the darkness stole
(You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead)
The light is coming to give back everything the darkness stole
(You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead)
The light is coming to give back everything the darkness stole
(You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead)
What did she say? What did he say?
You don't listen 'cause you know everything
You don't even need dreams
Tellin' everybody: Stay woke, don't sleep, aah
Gonna break that shit down
You don't wait, tell 'em wait another round, aah
Guess you're way above it now
And that's your way to love it now
How can they tell you shit that you've been through?
They are so confused, who cares about their rationale?
If it ain't your view
That's the bottom line
(You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead)
Know-it-all (know-it-all)
Give you a box of chances, every time you blow it all (blow it all)
As if it was shade, you would just throw it all (throw it all)
It's like you're trying not to glow at all (glow at all)
Know-it-all (know-it-all)
The light is coming to give back everything the darkness stole-tole-tole
(You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead)
The light is coming to give back everything the darkness stole
(You wouldn't let anybody speak and instead)

Why do we have chemistry? (eh, yeah)
With a need for speed (eh, yeah)
Doin' things that trouble clings to (eh, yeah)
And burns off our wings, aah
Gonna break that shit down
You don't wait, tell 'em wait another round, aah
Guess you're way above it now
And that's your way to love it now
