When me done speak (now, now)
Now he shootin' his shot like drive-by
Why you have to make me go call up my side guy?

Yo Ariana, come let me give you a high five
Ariana Grande:
The light is coming
To give back everything the darkness stole
The light is coming
To give back everything the darkness stole
