[Intro]
Ay-yo, B
This a good look right here
Yeah
Bad Boy, baby
Uh
Ay-yo, B

[Verse 1]
I've been wantin' to explain to you
What it is that you do to me
Got me open, I am so in love with loving you
Touching places no one else has
Ever made me feel incredible
When you touch me, I feel sexy
No one else like you

[Pre-Chorus]
Got me goin' off all the love you give me (you give me)
I'd be crazy to ever want to leave (oh)
I love the way your hands feel on my body (touch me)
Please don't say you're gonna stop lovin' me (so keep on, yeah)

[Chorus]
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh (yeah)
When you're givin' your love to me, oh-oh

Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh
When you're givin' your love to me, oh-oh
It's like you're makin' love to me, oh-oh

[Verse 2]
I lose all control when you are here
And baby, it amazes me
How could someone be so sexy
And love like you do?
Baby, do you understand the power that you possess over me?
Can't accept this feeling and I don't think I want to

[Pre-Chorus]
Got me goin' off all the love you give me (you give me)
I'd be crazy to ever want to leave (oh)
I love the way your hands feel on my body (touch me)
Please don't say you're gonna stop lovin' me (so keep on)

[Chorus]
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh (yeah)
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh (the way, yeah)
When you're givin' your love to me, oh-oh (you give your love)
It's like you're makin' love to me, oh-oh (to me)
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh (keep on givin', yeah)
When you're givin' your love to me, oh-oh (it feels like)
It's like you're makin' love to me, oh-oh (like you're making love to me)

[Bridge]
It's crazy how much I'm in love with you (oh, I)
It's all 'cause you love me the way you do (do)
Don't want no other love but you (oh no, no no)
'Cause no one else has ever made me feel this good (hey-hey)

[Chorus]
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh (keep on giving it, baby)
Keep givin' your love to me, oh-oh (it feels good to me, baby)
When you're givin' your love to me, oh-oh (it feels like)
It's like you're makin' love to me, oh-oh (like you're making love to me)

Makin' love to me
Makin' love to me

Beyoncé

In the twenty-first century, no pop star was as poised, as polished, or as generally fierce as Beyoncé. She scored early success with Destiny’s Child, who started out as a sexier and sassier (if less adult) version of TLC, then steadily became more and more of a vehicle for Beyoncé’s operatic vocals and general diva-tude, which may have been the plan all along.

Whether appearing in TV spots, co-starring in films like Dreamgirls, or killing it every night on stadium tours, Beyoncé was omnipresent in the 2000s. Almost everybody, Beygency member or otherwise, loved shiny, hip-hop-fueled hits like “Crazy in Love”, and “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)”. Moving into the 2010s, Beyoncé fights on, gaining more and more traction in pop culture with her work and music.

She has made a significant impact upon the music landscape in general with her recent albums 4 and BEYONCÉ, which explored complex themes like motherhood, feminism, marriage, sexuality, and doubt in a greater depth. With Lemonade, she went a step further—the fierce, intimate exploration of marriage, infidelity, and forgiveness was her most personal and musically daring album yet.
