Lyrics for The Saturdaysfeat. Flo Rida – Higher
[Flo Rida]
Hey Flo Rida!
Frankie, Molly,
Una, Vanessa, Michelle
What you doing Saturday girl?I’m doing nothing
Cause then at least I’m doing nothing wrong
And I’m gon’ stay in on my own
And turn off my telephone
If nothing’s gained and nothing’s wonAnd you can tell him
Yeah you can say whatever I don’t care (yeah)
And if you wanna play it cool
Then I got news for you
It’s getting hotter, hotter in here[Hook]
So when I speak listen
This my decision
And you keep missing out the words (ohh oh)
So when I speak listen
Cause you keep on pushing
Like I need permission to be heard (ohh oh)[Chorus]
I’m gonna lift it lift it higher (x2)
So when I speak listen
This my decision
And you keep missing out the wordsI’m getting closer
I’m moving in and yeah I think you know
Cause I am sick of playing games
And i’m not gon’ say no names
But you and I know who to blameSo you can tell ’em
Yeah you can go ahead and prove your strength!
Cause I am in this s–t myself and I do not need your help
I’m gonna do this
Do it right now[Hook]
So when I speak listen
This my decision
And you keep on missing out the words (ohh oh)
So when I speak listen
Cause you keep on pushing
Like I need permission to be heard (ohh oh)
I’m gonna lift it lift it higher (x2)
So when I speak listen
This my decision
And you keep on missing out the words[Flo Rida]
She says I’m missing out the words
But this ain’t what I heard
I get it first hand tryna push me to the curb
Just what I deserve
I get on the nurse
Damn she got curves
All over this nurse
I talk she talk
But then it’s my fault run it baby
She be tripping I did nothing at all
Put me on the mission
Tryna listen to the broad
Say I got a feeling like she’s speaking to the wall
No understanding shawty demanding
Yep spittin’ rap
Got my head in her bandage[Hook]
So when I speak listen
This my decision
And you keep missing out the words (ohh oh)
So when I speak listen
Cos you keep on pushing
Like I need permission to be heard (ohh oh)[Chorus]
I’m gonna lift it lift it higher (x2)
So when I speak listen
This my decision
And you keep on missing out the words
