  • I suppose I should tell you what this bitch is thinking
    You'll find me in the studio and not in the kitchen
    I won't be bragging 'bout my cars or talking 'bout my chains
    Don't need to shake my ass for you 'cause I've got a brain
    If I told you 'bout my sex life, you'd call me a slut
    When boys be talking about their bitches, no one's making a fuss
    There's a glass ceiling to break, uh-huh, there's money to make
    And now it's time to speed it up 'cause I can't move at this pace

    Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say
    I'll go ahead and say them anyway
    Forget your balls and grow a pair of tits
    It's hard, it's hard
    It's hard out here for a bitch

    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here for a bitch
    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here

    If you're not a size six, and you're not good looking
    Well, you better be rich, or be real good at cooking
    You should probably lose some weight
    'Cause we can't see your bones
    You should probably fix your face or you'll end up on your own
    Don't you want to have somebody who objectifies you?
    Have you thought about your butt? Who's gonna tear it in two?
    We've never had it so good, uh-huh, we're out of the woods
    And if you can't detect the sarcasm, you've misunderstood

    Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say
    I'll go ahead and say them anyway
    Forget your balls and grow a pair of tits
    It's hard, it's hard
    It's hard out here for a bitch

    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here for a bitch
    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here

    A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
    Bitch, bitch (bitch)
    A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
    Bitch, bitch (ah)
    A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
    Bitch, bitch
    A bitch, a bitch, a bitch
    Bitch, bitch

    Inequality promises that it's here to stay
    Always trust the injustice 'cause it's not going away
    Inequality promises that it's here to stay
    Always trust the injustice 'cause it's not going away

    Sometimes it's hard to find the words to say
    I'll go ahead and say them anyway
    Forget your balls and grow a pair of tits
    It's hard, it's hard
    It's hard out here for a bitch

    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here for a bitch
    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here
    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here for a bitch
    It's hard for a bitch (for a bitch)
    For a bitch, it's hard
    It's hard out here
