00:00It's okay for all these queens to share one stage.
00:09Special shout out to Roxanne Chante!
00:12U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.
00:15U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.
00:20U-N-I-T-Y, U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.
00:25U-N-I-T-Y.
00:27Never black on the front and way to a unity.
00:30U-N-I-T-Y, U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.

00:37U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.
00:39U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.
00:40Instinct leads me to another flow.
00:42Every time I hear a brother call a girl up or a hoe.
00:45Trying to make her sister feel low.
00:47You know all I got to go.
00:49Now everybody knows there's exceptions to this rule.
00:52I'll be getting mad when we playing this cool.
00:54But don't you be calling me out in my name.
00:57I bring red to those who disrespect me like a dame.
01:00That's why I'm talking.
01:01One day I was walking down the block.
01:03Had my cut off shorts all right.
01:05I walked past these dudes when they passed me.
01:08Whenever I felt my booty, he was nasty.
01:11I turned around red, somebody was catching the rap.
01:14You hear me, bitch?
01:16Since he was with his boys, he tried to break Flox.
01:18Whatcha do you like?
01:18I punched him dead in his eyes.
01:20Then who you go.
01:21U-N-I-T-Y, U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.
01:25U-N-I-T-Y, that's a unity.
01:26U-N-I-T-Y, you're about Black Flombs when they did it.
01:30U-N-I-T-Y, you gotta let them know.
01:34U-N-I-T-Y, I'm notという you.
01:35U-N-I-T-Y, I'm not supposed to let them know.
01:37U-N-I-T-Y, I'm not supposed to let them know.
01:39U-N-I-T-Y, I'm not supposed to let them know.
01:41I hit the bottom, there ain't nowhere else to go but up
01:43Bad days at work give you an attitude and you were rough
01:46And take it out of me, but that's about enough
01:48You put your hands on me again, put your hands in handcuffs
01:51I guess I fell so deep in love, I grew dependency
01:53I was too blind to see this album was affecting me
01:56All that I knew was you was all the man I had
01:58And I was scared to let him go, even though he treated me bad
02:02But now I wanna see my kids see me getting beat down
02:04Everybody's second mommy all around
02:06Yo, you say I'm nothing without you, but I'm nothing with ya
02:09A man don't really love you if he hits ya
02:12This is the road to the, I'm not taking it, no
02:14I'm not too personal, it's not what we're here for
02:17Ain't nothing good, go come to you, till you do right by me
02:20Brother, you wait and see I'm not your bitch
02:22Nah, hell nah, boy I ain't no bitch
02:27Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
02:29I ain't a bitch, not yours, not yours, and not yours
02:36I gotta shout the rocks in a shantay
02:40It's all about the unity tonight
02:45So we gonna hear this real nice with a peace sign in the air
02:49Throw up a peace sign everybody

02:54We respect you
02:56But never disrespect the queen
02:59You'll never know what to expect

03:43She's going to be fine
03:45But you know what?
03:46If y'all lift her up tonight
