Give It To Me
Is it going is it going is it going is it going?
I don't know what you're looking for
I'm the type of girl that'll look you dead in the eye (eye)
I'm real as they come if you don't know why I'm fly-y-y-y-y
Seen ya try to switch it up but girl you ain't got to
I'm the wonderwoman let me go get my ropes
I'm a supermodel and mummy, si mummy
Amnesty international got bankrupt (I'm on top, on lock)
You love my ass and my abs and the video called promicious
My style is miticulous-s-s-s-s
If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor you'll be watchin all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Wanna see you work your body
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
When timbo is in the party everbody put up their hands
I get a half a mill for my beats you get a couple grand-d-d-d-d
Never gonna see the day that I ain't got the upper hand
I'm respected from California way down to Japan
I'm a real producer and you just the piano man
Your song gon' top the charts, I heard em, I'm not a fan-n-n-n-n
Talkin greasy I'm the one that gave them they chance
Somebody need to tell em they can't do it like I can
If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor you'll be watchin all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Wanna see you work your body
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Could you speak up and stop the mumbling
I don't think you're getting clear
Sitting on the top it's hard to hear you from way up here
I saw you tryin to act cute on the TV just let me clear the air
We missed you on the charts last week
Damn that's right, you wasn't there
Nah, if sexy never left, then why's everybody on my shi it it?
Don't hate on me just because you didn't come up with it
So if you see us in the club go on and walk the other way
'cause our run will never be over; not at least until we say
If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor you'll be watchin all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Wanna see you work your body
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor you'll be watchin all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Wanna see you work your body
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
If you see us in the club we'll be acting real nice
If you see us on the floor you'll be watchin all night
We ain't here to hurt nobody
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Wanna see you work your body
So give it to me give it to me give it to me
Confiança e Domínio: A Mensagem por Trás de Give It To Me de Justin Timberlake
A música Give It To Me, interpretada por Justin Timberlake, é uma faixa que exala confiança e autoafirmação. A letra da música parece ser uma resposta direta a críticos e competidores no mundo da música, onde Timberlake e seus colaboradores (Timbaland e Nelly Furtado, que também participam da faixa) reivindicam seu lugar no topo da indústria. A repetição do refrão 'give it to me' pode ser interpretada como um desafio lançado para que outros mostrem o que têm, enquanto os artistas exibem suas habilidades e conquistas.
No contexto da letra, há uma clara referência ao sucesso e à influência que Timberlake e seus colegas têm na música. Frases como 'I get a half a mill for my beats you get a couple grand' e 'I'm respected from California way down to Japan' destacam o sucesso financeiro e o respeito global que eles alcançaram. Além disso, a menção a 'sexy never left' parece ser uma alusão ao hit anterior de Timberlake, 'SexyBack', sugerindo que ele sempre esteve na vanguarda da música pop e continua relevante, apesar das críticas.
A música também aborda a ideia de autenticidade e originalidade na arte. Timberlake critica aqueles que tentam imitá-lo ou que não conseguem acompanhar seu nível de inovação e criatividade. A letra 'Don't hate on me just because you didn't come up with it' serve como um lembrete de que a inveja muitas vezes vem daqueles que não conseguem igualar o sucesso de outros. Em resumo, Give It To Me é um hino de empoderamento para os artistas, incentivando-os a manterem-se firmes em seu talento e a ignorarem os detratores que tentam diminuir seu brilho.
