Focus
Ariana Grande Lyrics

I know what I came to do
I have a clear purpose and goal in mind

And that ain't gonna change
And I won't be swayed from my intentions

So go ahead and talk your talk
You can say whatever you want

'Cause I won't take the bait
But I won't let your words affect me

I'm over here doing what I like
I'm living my life how I want to

I'm over here working day and night
I'm putting in the effort necessary to achieve my goals

And if my real ain't real enough
And if what I'm doing isn't authentic to me

I'm sorry for you bae
Then that's not my problem

Let's find a light inside our universe now
Let's discover a positive path forward in our lives

Where ain't nobody keep on holding us down
Where no one is stopping us from achieving our dreams

Just come and get it let them say what they say
Just go for it and don't worry about what others think or say

'Cause I'm about to put them all away
Because I am confident in my abilities to succeed

I can tell you're curious
I know you're interested in my life

It's written on your lips
I can see it in your expression

Ain't no need to hold it back
There's no reason to conceal your curiosity

Go head and talk your shit
Go ahead and speak your mind

I know you're hoping that I'll react
I know you're trying to provoke a response from me

I know you're hoping I'm looking back
I know you want me to pay attention to you

But if my real ain't real enough
But if what I'm doing isn't authentic to me

Then I don't know what is
Then I don't know what else to do

One, two, three
Counting down to start something

Come on girls
Encouraging others to join in

You know I like it
Acknowledging enjoyment in the activity

Focus on me
Pay attention to me

Focus on me (you know I like it when you focus on me)
You know I enjoy being the center of attention

Focus on me (focus on me!)
Emphasizing the importance of focusing on oneself

Focus on me (focus)
Again stressing the need for self-focus

Focus on me (focus on me)
Repeating the importance of self-focus
