From her self-titled album. Produced by Hit-Boy, Beyoncé, and Rey Reel. Co-written by The-Dream, and features a soundbite from "We Should All Be Feminists" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
Love this! ANTHEM! "I woke up like this. Ladies, tell em 'I woke up like this!'"

This is definitely one of my top 2 songs on the record. It needs to be her urban lead single.

I think the song is an oxymoron to chimamanda ngozi adichie's speech. so wrong, but so good.

I think the song is an oxymoron to chimamanda ngozi adichie's speech. so wrong, but so good. I don't think it does at all. In her speech, she says she thinks it's fine for women to be competitive, but that they shouldn't be focused solely on being competitive when it comes to men. The sentiment is there, she's telling her haters and women trying to take her crown to sit the f**k down. Nothing wrong with that. |

Yeah, that speech was included because she got dragged when BOW DOWN initially came out. People were saying she should be supporting unity among women blah blah blah. The speech was her response. And the "Flawles" portion of the track is the uplifting unity shit.
