Lyrics[]
Invited to the party, I ain't putting on makeup
No reason to be sorry, showing off how I wake up
My weave is looking suspicious but who cares about my hair?
Let them bitches get vicious, finally, I just don't care
(While we) rolling up play it and you know we roll deep
They looking like coke and we looking like weed
We here to party, c'est la vie, c'est la vie, c-c'est la vie
Pass the hors d'oeuvres, my bitches, we eat
Need to feed all of this ass shakin'
Let 'em all judge baby, if they need, c'est la vie
I’ll just skip the pageantry
I won’t miss it very much
And I’m so sorry
Seemed to misplaced all my fucks
Oh and you can do whatever you please
It's just not for me
Fuck the pageantry
(I know I'm beautiful!)
(She know, she know)
(Shit, she looked bad!)
(She know, she know)
(I know- I know- I know I'm beautiful!)
(Pageantry)
Invite text for the party (party)
We ride, leave for the mission (mission)
All my clothes in the laundry (laundry)
I got no fucks left in my system, goddamn!
I can't walk in stilettos (-lettos)
I'll just stick to my chucks and (chucks and)
Don't care if they're judgemental (-mental)
Wear the shirt I woke up in (up in)
Baby, you're perfect, show of them goods
Don't worry 'bout what the 'gram say you should
Don't compare, don't compete
C'est la vie
I’ll just skip the pageantry
I won’t miss it very much
And I’m so sorry
Seemed to misplaced all my fucks
Oh and you can do whatever you please
It's just not for me
Fuck the pageantry
(I know I'm beautiful!)
Ah!
(She know, she know)
(Shit, she looked bad!)
Ah!
(She know, she know)
Ah!
(I know- I know- I know I'm beautiful!)
(She know, she know)
(Shit, she looked bad!)
Ah!
(She know, she know)
Ah!
Pageantry, I won't miss it very much
And I'm so sorry
Seemed to misplaced all my fucks
Oh and you can do whatever you please
It's just not for me
Fuck the pageantry
