Brand New
Salt‐N‐Pepa Lyrics

Got the brand new, uh, attitude, what
I have adopted a refreshing new outlook on life

Raw to the core, hardcore to your gut
I am authentic and unapologetically myself

Notorious, just scandalous, can't handle this
I have a reputation for being controversial and some people can't handle it

Black Miss, worth a twist
I am a powerful and unique woman

America, here to remain, maintain
I am a part of this country's identity and I will continue to thrive here

Blowin' up, out the frame, we uppin' in the game
My success is skyrocketing and I am becoming more influential in my industry

Ten years on your knees, no mercy
I have worked tirelessly for ten years without giving up

You want to curse me, I'm the queen of controversy
I am comfortable being provocative and people often have strong reactions to my actions

You're thirsty, wonderin' how I got the power
People are envious of my success and want to know how I achieved it

Hour after hour, phat tracks as the money stacks
I consistently produce great music that earns me a lot of money

Keep comin' back with the bomb, to the dawn
I continue to create amazing music that will last until the dawn

I keeps it on without a break
I consistently work hard without taking any breaks

While others try to fake it, I make it
I am able to turn my dreams into reality while others give up

She's gotta have it, see what I want I take it
I go after what I want with determination and confidence

No rest with duress, I'm on a quest for fights
I am always pushing myself to strive for more, even when it's difficult

(My mic sounds nice) Send a kiss without desire
I am confident in my skills and I can successfully flirt without any actual desire

You give me props in my presence, compliments I'm phattest
I appreciate people who compliment me and acknowledge my talent

Status got me high, but that should never matter
While I enjoy my success and status, it's not the most important thing to me

Success, blessings, lessons, I got plenty
I have learned a lot from my success and feel blessed to be where I am

Rough roads, I travel many
I have gone through many obstacles to get where I am

Paid dues so I choose, I call you out, you owe me
I have worked hard to earn my success and expect people to respect that

Made a way for you, don't play like you don't know me
I have helped other people succeed and I expect them to remember that

Can't end till I say when, now come again
I am not done working hard and achieving my goals, so keep watching me succeed

Eliminate the job, turkey, or you can jerk it
Either work hard or don't bother trying at all

Take it to your face with taste and play on
Accept and embrace my talent and success

Billboard chart (Rap part), stay on
My music is popular and successful, and I will continue to make hits

Arrive with the mic, it's live and Memorex
My music is always exciting and entertaining, whether it's a live performance or on a recording

Promote safe sex, the best, one love, respect
I use my platform to promote safe and healthy behaviors, including respect and love

Once again I got the roughneckin' beats, funk sound
My music is still rough and funky, just how I like it

Peace to my peeps, be strong, lock down
I acknowledge my supporters and encourage them to stay strong and motivated

Big up to everybody gettin' tons, gettin' funds
I congratulate other successful people and respect their hard work

Makin' runs, lookin' out for their sons
I respect parents who work hard to provide for their children

Here we come, fly girls make your moves
I encourage women to be confident and make their own moves in life

Gotta get the dollar-dollar bills so we livin' how we choose
Financial stability is important for living the lives we want

Brand new, forever reign, you know my name
I am always changing and evolving, but my success and reputation remain

Cream always rises to the top and it don't stop
The best and most successful people will always stand out and continue to succeed

Yeah, see I be crankin' up my Kirk Franklin spirituals
Sometimes I turn to gospel music to uplift my spirits

Believe I can fly, like the, I Believe in Miracles
I have strong faith and believe in the power of miracles

Must recognize the one up above
It's important to recognize a higher power and be grateful for blessings

Less gunshot, uh, more self-love
Rather than focusing on negativity and violence, I choose to focus on self-love and positivity

Ain't no stoppin' us now
We are unstoppable in our pursuit of success

We're on the move
We are constantly moving forward and striving for more

Ow, come on it, jump on it
Join us in our journey to success

We're brand new
We are constantly evolving and changing

We got a new attitude, yeah, yeah
We have a refreshing new outlook on life and our careers
