Yeah

[Chorus: Karina, Giselle]
One look, give ’em whiplash
Beat drop with a big flash
Coming hot, better think fast
This look is a must have, uh
When you see it, know I did that, uh
Day one, know I been bad, uh
Don’t stop, better press gas
Going hammer, can’t touch that (Can’t touch that)

[Refrain: Winter, Ningning]
Under pressure, body sweating, can you focus? (Yeah)

Feel free to gas me, yeah

[Refrain: Giselle, Winter]
Under pressure, body sweating, can you focus? (Hoo)
I deliver, I can promise, I’m the coldest (Cold)
You might only get one chance, so don’t you blow it
Just close your eyes, breathe in and visualize
