Work That [Rap Version] Mary J. Blige (Ft. Busta Rhymes)

[Chorus]
Work your thing out
Work your thing out
Work your thing out
Work your thing out

[Verse 1]
There's so many girls I hear you been running
From the beautiful queen that you could be becoming
You can look at my palm and see the storm coming
Read the book of my life and see I've overcome it
Just because the length of your hair ain't long
And they often criticize you for your skin tone
Wanna hold your head high 'cause you're a pretty woman
Get your runway stride on and keep going
Girl, live your life

[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanna be myself (Yeah yeah)
Don't sweat, girl, be yourself
Follow me, follow me, follow me
Girl, be yourself
That's why I be myself
And I grew to love it

[Chorus]
Work your thing out
(Let 'em get mad, they gonna hate anyway)
Work your thing out
(Don't you get that?)
Work your thing out
(Doesn't matter if you're going on with their plan)
Work your thing out
(They'll never be happy
'Cause they're not happy with themselves)
