So why you froze?

All I hear is some applause
For that stupid ass shit you say when you're on drugs
Slap that shit hard they all just frauds

To live this Life like an outcast dose?
Man rise
Hit pedal and hit wow

Let’s go out and make our way
Hit pedal and hit wow

Jcrois qu'y'a glitch dans la matrice
Tout ces filsdeup veulent m'la mettre je les maitrises
Odeur d'canabis toutes ces tactiques pour m'refiler du factice
Avec kelam on les boit comme un demi
(Tranquillement!)
Tu fume du semi tema le seum dans tes yeux quand t’es trop soumi
Eh

Toi t’es un zéro
Add and subtract my shit

J'ai calé des couplets
Découpé des projets
Écouté des dangers
Mes versets disent que j'suis dérangé
Arrête de faire l'mec qui est choqué
T'étais le premier a liker a l'époque ou tu m'suçait
Ehhh
The lyrics to Bridget Jones' Diary Vol.2's "Say What You Want" speak to the idea of not caring what others think and focusing on one's own journey. The song opens with the phrase "what you say" repeated as the rapper asserts that they are okay and making hits in the studio, despite the fake people around them. The lyrics then shift to criticism of those who use drugs and fake applause to perpetuate their status. The artist encourages listeners to rise and hit the pedal, making their way on their own terms. The French verse speaks to overcoming obstacles and dismisses those who were once supportive but have since become detractors.

…there are no suitable words to describe the character of Brigitte Jones : The creators exceeded the ‘norm of entertainment’
by far
and the actors are just superb
Renee especially
A great cinematic experience : an all time classic
a pity time flies and things change the way they do through age and other…🥂

@anniewilliams6561
Bridget has to be the most relatable character ever created, especially for women.
@val-schaeffer1117
and for men
@laminage
I know right. I wonder what Celine Dion thought of this scene as well as Eric Carmen who wrote the Song. Also another person who was good at imitating Celine Dion was UK Soap Actress Emma Atkins who sang like Celine. She has a terrific sense of Humour when she bought the lady who "imitated" her on Saturday Night Life to one of her shows.

@Charlotte-eo2bn
I remember watching this as a kid thinking this wasn't possible..like it had to get better, now the only unrealistic part of this movie is Bridget being able to afford her flat in Central London on a secretary's wage 🤣
@jessicabhatnagar9405
She wasn’t a secretary though? She was working in publishing but could be well paid as it’s London and she has a university degree.
@itsmagdalenaaa
This was 2001, mind you. Even things were more affordable for the average person back then. Plus she was working in publishing
@tariqlear5172
It would have to be very well paid!@@jessicabhatnagar9405
