Young Money
Nicki Minaj, Justin
Show you off, tonight I wanna show you off (aye-aye-aye)
What you got, a billion could've never bought (aye-aye-aye)
We gonna party like it's 3012 tonight
I wanna show you all the finer things in life
I'm coming for ya, I'm coming for ya
'Cause all I need
Is a beauty and a beat
Who can make my life complete
It's all 'bout you
When the music makes you move
Baby do it like you do
'Cause
Body rock
Girl, I can feel your body rock (aye-aye-aye)
Take a bow
You on the hottest ticket now (aye-aye-aye)
We gonna party like it's 3012 tonight
I wanna show you all the finer things in life
So just forget about the world, we young tonight
I'm coming for ya, I'm coming for ya
'Cause all I need
Is a beauty and a beat
Who can make my life complete
It's all 'bout you
When the music makes you move
Baby do it like you do
In time, ink lines
Bitches couldn't get on my incline
World tours, it's mine
Ten little letters on a big sign
Justin Bieber
You know I'mma hit 'em with the ether
Buns out, weiner
But I gotta keep an eye out for Selener
Beauty, beauty and the beast
Beauty from the East
Beautiful confessions of the priest
Beast, beauty from the streets, beat will get deceased
Every time beauty on the beat-eat
Body rock, oh (yeah, yeah)
I wanna feel your body rock (yeah, let's go, let's go)
'Cause all I need (all I need is love)
Is a beauty and a beat
Who can make my life complete (oh, woah)
It's all 'bout you (all I need is you)
When the music makes you move
Baby do it like you do
'Cause

Together, we're unstoppable and make beautiful music every time we collaborate.

I want to physically feel the vibration of your body as you dance to the music

Who can make my life complete
It's all 'bout you
When the music makes you move
Baby do it like you do
My happiness is dependent on the combination of beauty and rhythm in you, so please dance like only you can.
