“Lifted” is CL’s official American debut and will be featured on her solo album. In contrast to the edge CL has shown in the past, “LIFTED” is a feel-good anthem about drinking, dancing and just chilling with the gang.
The track interpolates Wu-Tang Clan’s “Method Man.” Meth even makes a cameo in t...
[Intro]
Hey, you, get off my cloud
You don't know me, and you don't know my style
Gettin' lifted, never comin' down
Gettin' lifted, uh
[Verse 1]
Gettin' dumb on the drum, rum-pum-pum-pum-pum
Better run, when I come, what a bomb, bomb
Sippin' on coke and rum, gettin' so drunk
Everyone wonderin', "Where she come from?"
Got gold on my necklace, there's gold on my wrists
Girls gettin' mad 'cause their boys want a kiss
Fast with the cash, I just throw it in the bag
Everything I wanna have (Well, I think you get the gist)
[Pre-Chorus]
Upside downside, inside outside
Hittin' you from every angle, there's no doubt
Poetry in motion, coast to coast and
Rub it in your skin like lotion
[Chorus]
I got myself a forty
I got myself a shorty
And I'm about to go get lifted
Yes, I'm about to go get lifted
I got myself a forty
I got myself a shorty
And I'm about to go get lifted
Yes, I'm about to go get lifted, yeah
[Verse 2]
H-U-F-F, huff and I puff
Blow like snow when the cold wind's blowin'
Zoom, I hit the mic like boom
Wrote a song about it, like to hear it? Here it goes
Style will hit you, wham, then god-damn
You'll be like, "Oh shit, that's the jam!"
Turn it up, now hear me get buck wi-wi-wild (While)
I'm about to blow, light me up
[Pre-Chorus]
Upside downside, inside outside
Hittin' you from every angle, there's no doubt
Poetry in motion, coast to coast and
Rub in it your skin like lotion
[Chorus]
I got myself a forty
I got myself a shorty
And I'm about to go get lifted
Yes, I'm about to go get lifted
I got myself a forty
I got myself a shorty
And I'm about to go get lifted
Yes, I'm about to go get lifted, yeah
[Bridge]
Hey, you, get off my cloud
You don't know me, and you don't know my style
Gettin' lifted, never comin' down
Gettin' lifted, never comin' down
Hey, you, get off my cloud
You don't know me, and you don't know my style
Gettin' lifted, never comin' down
Gettin' lifted, uh
[Chorus]
I got myself a forty
I got myself a shorty
And I'm about to go get lifted
Yes, I'm about to go get lifted
I got myself a forty
I got myself a shorty
And I'm about to go get lifted
Yes, I'm about to go get lifted, yeah

Lifted was produced by Teddy Park.
This song was made a few years back on New Years Day…I was in the studio with my producer Teddy randomly and we decided to make music. We started watching music videos of Wu-Tang on YouTube and ‘Method Man’ came on. I went in the booth with the lyrics and started humming this melody which ended up b...
