Get It Started Lyrics by Empire Cast

Empire: The Complete Season 2

2016

[Intro: Jussie Smollett]
We gon' get it started
I said we gon' get it started

[Verse 1: Kelli Wakili]
Time's of the essence, yes, check my method
There is no question, you can keep guessing
Laid back, cooling, naw, I'm not stressing
I don't chose them, they choose me, I'm like treasure
Maybe cause I'm saner than y'all, don't know I measure
Maybe cause I symbolise grade A pleasure
Take what you want, no playing hard to get
Oh you got it like that, well let's see what comes next

[Hook: Jussie Smollett]
Take what you got, let us stick our hands up in the air
Are you down to work? Are you down to work?
Tell me if you ready cause I'm willing to take what I want tonight
Are you down to work? Are you down to work?
We gon' get it started
I said we gon' get it started

[Verse 2: Kelli Wakili]
Put your hands up, face down on the pavement
Don't you move a muscle, are you hearing what I'm saying?
You're my hostage, hostage, all up on you
Make you be my mosh pit, mosh pit, and you love it
I'mma make you want me, that'll always be my motto
Don't be acting like you do not want to win the lotto
Lemme be your grand prize, baby grand prize
Be the woman to your mankind, yeah this man's mine

[Hook: Jussie Smollett]
Take what you got, let us stick our hands up in the air
Are you down to work? Are you down to work?
Tell me if you ready cause I'm willing to take what I want tonight
Are you down to work? Are you down to work?
We gon' get it started
I said we gon' get it started

[Bridge: Jussie Smollett]
Let's get started, aw look at that body
Jump around, get wild, body saying good lord
Let's get started, aw look at that body
Jump around, get wild, body saying good lord
Like a real round special, be the beast that you can
And this is why you came, tell me are you not entertained? (Are you not entertained?!)
