Rap Intro
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am Nobody can make me do what I don´t want to I can be myself a lot and I´m proud of what I got So I´ll never change for you
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am Tight jeans don´t hit the scene with one like me I got to be feeling free and you better believe I´ll Do what pleases me
Yo Left Eye kick the scene
See everyday last week and not a place to go This nut still had me dressin´ like a fashion show
But not this week I´m chillin´ cause it´s nothin´ to hide Threw on my baggy dips and waited for my ride He pulled up knock knock til I opened the door Peeped my gear and started dissin´ me from head to toe But yo just to let you know, it´s takin´ ta Make me wanna say gotta go, gotta go
Chorus: Hat 2 da back I gotta kick my pants down real low That´s the kinda girl I am That´s the kinda girl I am Hat 2 da back I gotta kick my pants down real low That´s the kinda girl that I am
Here we go, here we go, here we go again
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am Some people just don´t understand the things I do (You feelin´ it "D", you feelin´ it) Chillin´ with the girls or kick it with the fellas If I choose
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am Dumb rules are left for fools With no attitude I think my way is cool So let me be me and continue being smooth Yo Left Eye what´s up wit´ that guy?
So yo gettin´ back to this dude wit´ the foul attitude Shoot he made another bad move sayin´ that Girls shouldn´t wear baseball caps he can go take a hike
Cause it´s the style I like yeah it´s a trip Cause somethin´ hasn´t yet been said I never talked about them damn fingerwaves in his head Tight pants and 2 rings in each ear You know that is dead but it´s me instead
Chorus
Here we go again
That´s the kinda girl I am Don´t cha know I really don´t give a damn Let me be me for me and not what I´m supposed to be So I´m gonna do what I wanna do Cause dumb rules are left for silly fools That´s the kinda girl that I am - ohh!
Here we go, here we go, here we go again
Some people might wonder why we´re like that Cause we´re smooth Smooth you know
Relatively speakin´ I am no ordinary dip Cause I ain´t reachin´ hipped Til you be thinkin´ I´m flipped And that is ooooh on the TLC tip
