Big Girl Panties
Empowerment Anthem: Embracing Strength in Big Girl Panties
Lyrics
Don’t want to do it all today (don’t, don’t do it)
Expressing reluctance or unwillingness to tackle everything on the same day
Ain’t nothin’ seem to go my way (girl, you really been through it)
Feeling like nothing is going well, indicating a tough time
But is this the way it’s got to stay
Questioning if the current situation is permanent
Or maybe it’s time to make a change
Contemplating a need for change or improvement
Oh, I could wallow and I could whine
Considering the option to complain or feel sorry for oneself
Or I could swallow all my pride
Choosing to let go of pride or ego
So I’m gonna pull my big girl panties on
Deciding to face challenges bravely or maturely
And jam to an Amy Winehouse song
Intending to uplift spirits with music, particularly by Amy Winehouse
Hike ‘em up high and remind myself I’m strong
Emphasizing personal strength and resilience
I’ll put the right foot first and then the left
Starting a task or journey with determination
Wiggle inside and take the first steps
Beginning a process, taking initial steps
To bein’ free, to bein’ me
Aspiring to freedom and authenticity
In my big girl panties
Referencing the act of wearing 'big girl panties' as a metaphor for empowerment and confidence
Big girl panties
Reiteration of wearing 'big girl panties' symbolically
Pump me up to get shit done (get it, girl, get it)
Motivation to accomplish tasks
Checkin’ ‘em off one by one (little by little)
Gradually completing tasks, step by step
I could take on any hurdle
Feeling capable of overcoming any obstacle
So long as I got my good girdle
Symbolizing reliance on something supportive or comforting
All those excuses, they were fine
Previously acceptable justifications are no longer valid
But now I ain’t wastin’ no more time
Deciding not to waste any more time
So I’m gonna pull my big girl panties on
Repeating the decision to face challenges with determination
And jam to an Erykah Badu song
Intending to find inspiration in Erykah Badu's music
Hike ‘em up high and remind myself I’m strong
Reiterating personal strength and resilience
I’ll put the right foot first and then the left
Starting a new phase or task confidently
Wiggle inside and take the first steps
Continuing the process, taking further steps
To bein’ free, to bein’ me
Striving for personal freedom and authenticity
In my big girl panties
Repeated emphasis on empowerment through 'big girl panties'
In my big girl panties
Reiteration of empowerment through 'big girl panties'
All those excuses, they were fine
Reaffirmation that prior excuses are no longer acceptable
But now I ain’t wastin’ no more time
Deciding not to waste any more time, emphasizing determination
So I’m gonna pull my big girl panties on
Reaffirming the decision to confront challenges head-on
And jam to a Caviar & Grits song
Choosing to find inspiration in the artist's own music
Hike ‘em up high and remind myself I’m strong
Reiterating personal strength and resilience
I’ll put the right foot first and then the left
Continuing confidently, step by step
Wiggle inside and take the first steps
Continuing the process, moving forward
To bein’ free, to bein’ me
Striving for personal freedom and authenticity
In my big girl panties
Reiteration of empowerment through 'big girl panties'
In my big girl panties
Repeated emphasis on empowerment through 'big girl panties'
In my big girl panties
-In my big girl panties
Final emphasis on empowerment through 'big girl panties'
