And I'm leavin' here, with somethin', I come wit

So scream at it, when you ready to ride (come on)

[Chris Brown]
Let me talk to you
Tell you how it is
I was thinking when I saw that body

Tell her what the young boy gone do
Damn them chicks wit you

Baby, pretty thick with that kick that sick
That need to be hit
So tell me what ya'll gone do

I got friends and you got friends and you got friends
They hop out and you hop in

The way you drop, drop makes me wanna pop
I got friends and you got friends and you got friends
They hop out and you hop in

The way you drop, drop makes me wanna pop

If he ain't, lemme kno'
Let me see if you can run it,
Girl indeed I can run it, run it

If he ain't, lemme kno'
Let me see if you can run it,
Girl indeed I can run it, run it

You see, girl I can set you off
Don't believe my age is gonna slow us down
I can definitely show you things
To have you sayin' I cant be sixteen
Once I get in
You wanna go
I'll have you girls wishin' they were you
I know you heard 'bout me
But guess whats goin' down if we leave

I got friends and you got friends and you got friends
They hop out and you hop in

The way you drop, drop makes me wanna pop
I got friends and you got friends and you got friends
They hop out and you hop in

The way you drop, drop makes me wanna pop

Let me see if you can run it,
Girl indeed I can run it, run it
Is your man, on the flo'

Shawty gotta come back 'cus she so hot
Lookin for dem grown girls
That ain't scared to get to it

When we drop that music
Little mini skirt and she lookin' good
Got different color weaves
Man she so hood
I like dem thick in tha waist
All tan in the face
And girls come to us
We don't chase
She move her booty like a low rider
Up...down
Then she like the way how I put shit down
It ain't nothing to a G
I do this on the daily
You don't believe me

And make no second gesture now
Matter fact I got one question now

[Chris Brown]
Is your man, on the flo'
If he ain't, lemme kno'

Girl indeed I can run it, run it
Is your man, on the flo'
If he ain't, lemme kno'
Let me see if you can run it,
Girl indeed I can run it, run it





[JD]
Right about I need for everybody to get to dance flo'

Overall Meaning

The song "Run It Remix" by Chris Brown featuring Bow Wow and Jermaine Dupri is a high-energy party track. The lyrics are a call to dance and have a good time at the club. The opening of the song features Jermaine Dupri hyping up the crowd, with his signature catchphrase "so so def," indicating that this is a song from his record label.


Bow Wow starts the first verse with a smooth flow, encouraging the ladies on the dance floor to show off their moves. He promises a good time, mentioning his luxury car parked outside, and tells the women to "twerk that thing" like they do in music videos. Chris Brown takes over in the next verse, complimenting a particular woman's physique and saying he wants to "hit" her. He also mentions their friends being involved in the situation and the admiration of himself and others for the way she moves.


The chorus repeats the "run it" hook, asking if the woman can dance and inviting her to show her skills on the dance floor. They also ask if her man is there, implying the possibility of something happening between the two of them. Bow Wow comes back for a rap verse, continuing the party vibe and describing the type of women he and Chris Brown are interested in. The song ends with a repeat of the chorus and Jermaine Dupri again encouraging people to dance.


Overall, "Run It Remix" is a high-energy, catchy song that encourages dancing and having a good time. The lyrics are somewhat suggestive but not explicit, fitting the vibe of a typical club track.
