Born and raised in Houston, Texas, Beyoncé began performing in local competitions at age 7, eventually forming the group Girl's Tyme in 1990 with help from her parents. Girl's Tyme became Destiny's Child in 1997.

The disbanding of Destiny's Child in 2005 facilitated her continued success: her sophomore solo album B'Day, released in 2006, debuted at number one on the Billboard charts. Her third solo album, I Am… Sasha Fierce, was released in November 2008, and in 2009 she received 10 Grammy Awards nominations. On January 31, 2010, she won 6 Grammy Awards, breaking the record for most Grammy awards won by a female artist in one night; she previously held the record of five awards with 5 other artists.

Beyoncé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To the left, to the left
To the left, to the left
Everything you own in the box to the left
In the closet that's my stuff, yes
If I bought it, nigga, please don't touch (don't touch)
But could you walk and talk at the same time?
And it's my mine name that is on that tag
So remove your bags let me call you a cab
Standing in the front yard telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking 'bout
How I'll never ever find a man like you
You got me twisted
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I could have another you in a minute
Matter fact he'll be here in a minute, baby
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second get
To thinking you're irreplaceable
So go ahead and get gone
Call up that chick and see if she's home
Oops, I bet ya thought that I didn't know
What did you think I was putting you out for?
Because you was untrue
Rolling her around in the car that I bought you
Baby, drop them keys
Hurry up before your taxi leaves
Standing in the front yard telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking 'bout
How I'll never ever find a man like you
Got me twisted
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you in a minute
Matter fact he'll be here in a minute, baby
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I'll have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second
Get to thinking you're irreplaceable (irreplaceable)
So since I'm not your everything (irreplaceable)
How about I'll be nothing, nothing at all to you (nothing)
Baby I won't shed a tear for you (I won't shed a tear)
I won't lose a wink of sleep
'Cause the truth of the matter
Is replacing you is so easy, hey
To the left, to the left
To the left, to the left, mm
To the left, to the left
Everything you own in the box to the left
To the left, to the left
Don't you ever for a second get
To thinking you're irreplaceable
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you in a minute
Matter fact he'll be here in a minute, baby
You must not know 'bout me

So don't you ever for a second
Get to thinking, baby
You must not know 'bout me
You must not know 'bout me
I can have another you in a minute
Matter fact he'll be here in a minute
You could pack all your things, we're finished
(You must not know 'bout me)
'Cause you made your bed, now lay in it
(You must not know 'bout me)
I can have another you by tomorrow
Don't you ever for a second
Get to thinking you're irreplaceable
In Beyoncé's song Irreplaceable, the lyrics boast about the woman's independence and self-worth in a relationship. The entire song is a strong message to her unfaithful partner that she has come to the end of her patience with his treachery. The song's main refrain "to the left, to the left" signifies that she is done with him and wants him out of her life. She commands him to leave, and after packing his things, she leaves them in a box to the left. She reminds him that everything in the box is hers, including the clothes he is wearing.
Beyoncé takes charge of the break-up by reminding him that it is her name on the tag of everything he has, and that she can have any man she wants. She doesn't shed a tear or lose a wink of sleep over him, as the truth of the matter is that it is so easy to replace him. Beyoncé's lyrics emphasize that her worth is not tied to her relationship and she doesn't need a man to validate her.
Overall, the song is a strong feminist anthem about self-worth, independence, and the power to leave a toxic relationship.
Line by Line Meaning
To the left, to the left
I want all of your belongings to the left, out of my sight
Everything you own in the box to the left
I want you to take everything that belongs to you and put it in a box to the left
In the closet that's my stuff, yes
Anything you see in the closet is mine, not yours
If I bought it, nigga, please don't touch (don't touch)
If I paid for it, don't even think about touching it
And keep talking that mess, that's fine
Don't stop talking nonsense, I don't care
But could you walk and talk at the same time?
Can you multitask and actually do something useful while you talk?
And it's my mine name that is on that tag
My name is on the tag, I own it
So remove your bags let me call you a cab
Get your stuff and leave, I'll call you a taxi
Standing in the front yard telling me
You're standing outside telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking 'bout
You're calling me a fool, saying
How I'll never ever find a man like you
I won't find another man like you, according to you
You got me twisted
You're confused, that's not true
You must not know 'bout me
You clearly don't understand who I am
I could have another you in a minute
I could easily find someone else like you
Matter fact he'll be here in a minute, baby
Actually, he's already on his way
So go ahead and get gone
Just leave already
Call up that chick and see if she's home
Call that other girl you've been talking to
Oops, I bet ya thought that I didn't know
You thought I didn't know about her, but I do
What did you think I was putting you out for?
Why do you think I want you to leave?
Because you was untrue
You were unfaithful to me
Rolling her around in the car that I bought you
You're driving her around in the car I paid for
Baby, drop them keys
Give me the keys to the car
Hurry up before your taxi leaves
Quickly, before your ride goes away
So since I'm not your everything (irreplaceable)
I'm not everything to you, as much as you thought I was
How about I'll be nothing, nothing at all to you (nothing)
In fact, I won't be anything to you
Baby I won't shed a tear for you (I won't shed a tear)
I won't even cry over you
I won't lose a wink of sleep
I won't lose any sleep over you either
Is replacing you is so easy, hey
Finding someone else to replace you is so easy
Don't you ever for a second get to thinking you're irreplaceable
Don't think for a second that you're irreplaceable
You could pack all your things, we're finished
You can pack up and leave, we're done
('Cause you made your bed, now lay in it)
This is your fault, deal with the consequences
I can have another you by tomorrow
I can easily replace you by tomorrow
Don't you ever for a second Get to thinking you're irreplaceable
Again, don't think you're irreplaceable

Ya lo ves, ya lo ves
Te olvidé, te olvidé
(mmm)
Ya lo ves, ya loves
Ya lo ves, amor, esta vez te olvidé
en el closet, en un rincón
están tus cosas, esto se acabó (se acabó)
Te juro que no te aguanto más
no te quiero ya, ni como amante
Esta vez no ganarás, te puedes marchar
y no vuelvas jamás
Y si acaso piensas que esta vez voy a perdonar
ya verás, que nunca más me vuelves a engañar
Ya lárgate
¿Qué sabes tu de mi? No me hagas reir
tu creías que eras imprescindible
pero sin tu amor no voy a morirme, baby
¿Qué sabes tu de mi? No me hagas reir
me verás con otro hombre a mi lado
Ya lo ves, traidor, voy a sustituirte...
a olvidar tu amor
Ya me curé de dolor, ya te saqué de mi corazón
vete con ella, solos los dos
pobre de ti, lárgate, me das asco
Tu eres mi luz
pero hay amores que matan de daño
Me cansé de ti
ya no soy aquella infeliz
Y si acaso piensas que esta vez voy a perdonar
ya verás, que nunca más me vuelves a engañar
Ya lárgate
¿Qué sabes tu de mi? No me hagas reir
tu creías que eras imprescindible
pero sin tu amor no voy a morirme, baby
¿Qué sabes tu de mi? No me hagas reir
me verás con otro hombre a mi lado
Ya lo ves, traidor, voy a sustituirte
voy a olvidar tu amor
Ya no soy nada para ti
alguien que no conoces
Lo nuestro se acabó
tanto daño al fin lo destruyó (destruyó)
Nunca lloraré por ti
porque ya me cansé de ti
No eres más imprescindible
Ya lo ves, ya lo ves
te olvidé, te olvidé
(mmm)
Ya lo ves, ya lo ves
ya lo ves, amor, esta vez te olvidé
Te olvidé, te olvidé
Ya lo ves, traidor, voy a sustituirte...
voy a olvidar tu amor
¿Qué sabes tu de mi? No me hagas reir

Ya lo ves, traidor, voy a sustituirte...
voy a olvidar tu amor
