[Hook: Mary J. Blige]
Throw your hands up, 'cause we wanna✦ dance
Don't be afraid,✦ just take a chance
'Cause this beat will rock your body✦
Get up on the floor and party✦
Now y'all tell me, what y'all wanna✦ do?
Thinkin'✦ while I have a drink or two
Throw your hands up, everybody✦
Get up on the floor and party✦
[Verse 2: Jungle]
I pull in a V12 drop, all red
Look at ma with that cat paw tat on her leg
Come here, girl – can I kiss you? Let me lick you
Show you what your body✦ made for, you're official
You could be my baby✦ mama,✦ lookin'✦ like that
What you drink, champagne or Cognac?✦
What you like, dancing diamonds? Dolce Gabbana?
Fendi,✦ Louis Vuitton, Gucci,✦ and Prada?✦
A nigga✦ like Jungle to always✦ come through?
Shine in yo' hood, whenever the fuck you want to?
'Cause I'm a B-R-A-V– E-H-E-A-R-T from QB
Put' em up...
[Hook: Mary J. Blige]
Throw your hands up, 'cause we wanna✦ dance
Don't be afraid,✦ just take a chance
'Cause this beat will rock your body✦
Get up on the floor and party✦
Now y'all tell me, what y'all wanna✦ do?
Thinkin'✦ while I have a drink or two
Throw your hands up, everybody✦
Get up on the floor and party✦
[Post Chorus: Mary J. Blige]
Party✦ all night (Party✦ all night)
Let's drink, no fights (Let's drink, no fights)
Party✦ all night (Whachu✦ wan' do?)
Let's drink, no fights (Drink up... c'mon, yeah, yeah...)
[Verse 3: Wiz]
I'm blaze, haze for days
Blackout thinkin'✦ of ways to get paid
MAC out; corner✦ I got, it's all laid
Shorty✦ with a nice round ass in my face
Now, do she want me to touch her?
Or do she want me to see?
Fuck, is she comin✦ wit' me?
A true BH, G Wiz, not complex
Chin checks if it get hectic
Nigga✦ Braveheart respected
Get bent at the bar, talk shit, walk it
And if I can't talk it, the false big cop a case
I'm here to blaze, roll up a dutch and take it to the face
Throw yo hands up
[Hook: Mary J. Blige]
Throw your hands up, 'cause we wanna✦ dance
Don't be afraid,✦ just take a chance
'Cause this beat will rock your body✦
Get up on the floor and party✦
Now y'all tell me, what y'all wanna✦ do?
Thinkin'✦ while I have a drink or two
Throw your hands up, everybody✦
Get up on the floor and party✦
Throw your hands up, 'cause we wanna✦ dance
Don't be afraid,✦ just take a chance
'Cause this beat will rock your body✦
Get up on the floor and party✦
Now y'all tell me, what y'all wanna✦ do?
Thinkin'✦ while I have a drink or two
Throw your hands up, everybody✦
Get up on the floor and party✦

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

The verse prioritizes rhythmic bravado and lifestyle imagery over lyrical complexity, relying on an established 'tough guy' persona to maintain the track's momentum.

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"B-R-A-V-E-H-E-A-R-T"

① The literal spelling of the artist's crew affiliation.② A rhythmic stalling tactic used to emphasize the group identity during a transition.

Effective use of rhythmic lists to build a sense of luxury

Strong vocal presence that fits the club-anthem aesthetic of the era

Consistent cadence that keeps the listener engaged with the beat

Reliance on brand-dropping rather than sophisticated metaphor

The acrostic spelling is a simplistic device that lacks deeper lyrical weight

Limited thematic variation within the verse structure
