Listen up, we're looking for recruits
If you with me, lemme see your hands
Stand up and salute
Get your killer heels, sneakers, pumps or lace up your boots
Representing all the women, salute, salute

Representing all the women, salute, salute
"Salute" is a powerful and inspiring tribute to women all over the world. The opening lines encourage women from every country to stand up and be counted, using the metaphor of recruitment to suggest that all women are part of a larger movement. The song emphasizes unity, equality, and strength, urging women to wear whatever shoes they want and to represent their sisters proudly. The repetition of the "attention" and "salute" commands emphasizes the idea that women deserve respect and recognition, and their voices should be heard.
The second verse focuses on the idea that women can and should be warriors, that they have the skills needed to tackle any challenge. The phrase "don't need ammunition, on a mission" highlights the idea that women can achieve their goals without relying on violence or aggression. The song ends with an inspirational call to action, reminding women that they are not powerless and that their voices matter.
