The song became a sleeper hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 where it peaked at number 12, marking the group's highest-charting single at the time and the first top 20 single by a girl group in the US since "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)" by The Pussycat Dolls in 2009. It reached number one in Israel and Lebanon and number three on the UK Singles Chart. It was the fourth-bestselling song of 2015 in Israel. It is certified Quadruple Platinum in the US and Gold or higher in eleven additional countries. Directed by Cameron Duddy, the music video has themes of female empowerment with Fifth Harmony dominating men as business executives. It has received over two billion views on YouTube. The group promoted "Worth It" with several televised performances, including the season twenty-one finale of Dancing with the Stars, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and at the 2015 MTV Europe Music Awards.
"Worth It" was produced and co-written by the Norwegian production company, Stargate, consisting of duo Mikkel S. Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen and Ori Kaplan, with additional writing from Priscilla Renea. The song was released on January 15, 2015, on streaming and downloading services but officially impacted American rhythmic crossover radio as a single on March 2, 2015. A Spanish version titled "Dame Esta Noche" (Spanish for "Give Me This Night") was released to iTunes on July 10, 2015, following the success of the single. The track features Kid Ink's English rap verse, while the group sings in Spanish.
Originally intended for recording by rapper Kid Ink, who ended up collaborating on the song, the lyrics, and melody were changed to fit a female perspective. Kid Ink noted during an interview with Forbes that while he was "writing on their album", he was able to collaborate with "producers Stargate and Cashmere Cat" and this led to the development of the song. One of Kid Ink's verses from "Wit It" (the original version of the song) appears on this song. Speaking to Complex, Dinah Jane explained that the song was unplanned for the album, saying "There were no females on the song". After the song was presented to them by the production team Stargate, they changed part of the lyrics and bits "of the concept" to "fit their perspective". Lauren Jauregui also shared similar sentiments, saying that she "didn't think" the track would "make the album". In an interview with Billboard, music director David Armbrecht explained that the song is a "message of self-empowerment, which is made clear in its triumphant 'Give it to me, I'm worth it!' chorus". The song speaks to women of "all demographics", he said, explaining that this can be applied to anyone in a "relationship" or "getting out of one" and it is likely that one can get "tired of the games" and deserve better, using the song to do just that.

The lyrics to Fifth Harmony's song "Worth It" are a confident declaration of self-worth and the value that the singer places on herself. The repeated refrain of "give it to me, I'm worth it" emphasizes this idea that the singer knows her own worth and is not afraid to demand the respect and attention she deserves. The verses focus more on the singer's desire for her partner to step up and show her what they're capable of.
The first verse sees the singer taking the lead, urging her partner to "bring it back like she left somethin'" and step up to the challenge. The lines "in the club with the lights off, what you actin' shy for? Come and show me that you're wit it wit it wit it wit it" express the singer's desire for her partner to break out of their shell and show her what they can do. The second verse sees the singer issuing more specific commands, urging her partner to "come harder just because" and expressing a preference for things that are a little rough around the edges.

@theharshtruthoutthere
The music and film industries are under the rule of lucifer, who is the master of masonry club.
Think about it, all their HITS are about lust and fornication and being stressed and depressed, wanting to be done by “life”.
None of them has meaning in their music.
Souls are either in the lusting and fornication sin, or depressed that they cannot live like this.
= we praising sins and living in these.
Time is clear to REPENT – BORN AGAIN – come out from BABYLON:
Matthew 9:13
But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
John 3:3
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:7
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Revelation 18:4
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
