  • Uh, yeah
    This is for my motherfucking club heads
    You feel me?
    Ow

    People, gangstas, and pimps and people
    Smokin that deeper reefer
    Up in the club with speakers
    Hi hats, and bass and tweeters
    DJs is droppin' needles
    Sweat 'til I catch a fever
    Call me the illest diva
    Yo, I'm on fire
    People go 'head and drink up
    Get in the club, get fucked up
    See me, you got get lucked up
    Someone to touch and rub up
    Show me some love, strip off your clothes, and take off your socks

    The party's jumpin', I see something fine
    Boy, I wanna kiss you, but I'm just too shy
    Let me dance with you, let me wear you out
    Here's a glass of orange juice, let's go X it out
    The music's bangin', way down in my soul
    When you dance behind me, I lose all control
    Make me grind my hips, make me move my waist
    When the music come on, you take my breath away

    This is for my people, my party people
    This is for my people, my motherfucking people
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down)
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down, down)
    This is for my people, my party people (what? Uh)
    This is for my people, my ecstasy people (huh?)
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down)
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down, uh)

    I'm at the bar now, and I'm buying drinks
    And I got this feeling, and it's all over me
    I wanna dance with you and lick your face
    Meet me on the dance floor to feel some ecstasy
    The vibe is right now, and I'm 'bout to score
    Mr. DJ can you play this joint once more
    'Cause I see the man I want, I want him right away
    Look him right in his face and say dance with me

    This is for my people, my party people
    This is for my people, my motherfucking people
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down)
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down, get on down)
    This is for my people, my party people (say what? Uh)

    Come on (come on), get down (get down)
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down)

    Flip that, bring the beat back
    Oh, freak that, come here, baby, grab me from the back
    Baby, you the mack, and you know that
    Put the needle on the track
    Skip that, flip that, bring the beat back

    Uno (uno), dos (dos), tres (tres)

    Can't stand when a nigga fuckin'up my plans (uh)
    All night, duckin' him while I'm tryin' to dance
    Drunk, and his breath stink, freaky with his hands
    Cocky with his mouth, please, like he got a fan
    Can't stand when a bitch all on my side
    I don't even know her and she all up in my light
    Givin' me the side eye like she want to fight
    Philly known for boxing bitch better get it right
    Can't stand when a DJ fuckin' up the song
    Know I'm tryin' to shake my ass all night long
    Cuttin' up the same shit all night long
    High 'fore I got there, now my shit is blown
    Can't stand when it ain't jumpin' like I want
    Bouncer tried to stop my fun, take away my blunt
    I don't give a fuck, he ain't gon' take away my fun
    See him when this shit is over, make the nigga run, uh

    This is for my people, my party people
    This is for my people, my motherfucking people
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down)
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down, down)
    This is for my people, my party people (say what? Uh)
    This is for my people, my ecstasy people (huh?)
    Come on (come on), get down (get on down)
    Come on (come on), get down (get, get on down, uh) Writer/s: Dante Nolan, Eve Jeffers, Melissa A. Elliott, Nisan Stewart
