If they're civilized, I'd rather stay savage
We them barbarians Beautiful and scaring them
Earth shakin rattling Be wild out loud again
We them barbarians Jasmine and Frankincense
Feminine invading them Beautiful Barbarians
Say it again Beautiful barbarian
A beast before, now, they wanna be wearin my skin
We don’t let them win We beautiful barbarians
Lemme think back, I remember days On these big lips, oh they used to hate
Now the script flipped Oh, hayy!
They gotta lipkit Kylie J
One hunnit, real talk, that’s what I’m on
If I’m a savage, then you’re a fraud My chains off
won’t be long see me glowing
Look at God
So fresh and so eloquent, uh I keep it humble and elegant, ah
Your beauty standard irrelevant A revolution is so imminent
We keep it joyful and bedouin I see my momma as evidence, ah
Nobody needs your benevolence, wha??
Feminist planet is imminent, ahh.
We them barbarians Beautiful and scaring them
Earth shakin rattling Be wild out loud again
We them barbarians Jasmine and Frankincense
Feminine invading them Beautiful Barbarians
Barbarian? that's how you really feel?
Like you didn't start wars over oil fields
Opium, poppy seed, money moves, Cardi B.
Tried to make me hate me for my hips and nose Now they got imposters, on a spread in Vogue
Not a single feature That they let us own
Oh they packin fillers Styrofoam
Ultralight beam metaphysical, huhn Power no longer invisible, huhn
Your beauty standard is cynical, oh A revolution is so critical
Power so deep and so mystical They say the personal is so political, oh
Women our future is winnable We gotta be indivisible
We them Barbarians. Beautiful and scaring them.
Earth shaking rattling Be wild out loud again.
We them barbarians. Jasmine and Frankincense.
Feminine invading them. Beautiful barbarians.
Say it again, Beautiful Barbarians.
A beast before now, they wana be wearing my skin
We don't let them win.
We beautiful Barbarians!
This nose, decolonize This hair, decolonize
