Description
The command “hit the gym” sounds like an almost gentle request - love in the form of a training program: a light warm-up, then real weight and a couple of reps for endurance. Mom was right: good things don't come easy, so you have to pull yourself together, carry imaginary baggage, and learn not to give up at the first whistle. Flirting here is like a warm-up before serious work: a little capriciousness, a touch of arrogance, and warm irony that makes you smile even in the midst of sweat. In the end, you either pull yourself together or miss your chance; at the same time, it all sounds almost like a friendly challenge.

Lyrics and translation
Original
Boo Thang Bootcamp
Know what to do
When you do what you're doing
I know I make it difficult to love me
Trust me
But mama said good things never come easy, believe me
I know you think it's really hard to please me
But I'm just playing really hard to get
Don't give up yet, don't get upset, alright
I'm trying to make sure you're ready
Hit the gym because you got shit to carry
I've been eating good, getting sick like my baggage
Lift with your knees, 'cause I'ma put you through
Boo Thang Bootcamp
You got to know what to do when you do what you're doing
You've gotta love me right, love me right
Boo Thang Bootcamp
You got to know what to do when you do what you're doing
You've gotta love me right, love me right
How you gon' break a sweat?
That was just a warm-up play
Started off high, you can't rely
All your muscle memory
Forget your ex, she isn't me
Are you the missing part of me, part of me?
I got some bad habits, baby, I'm trying
I'ma need somebody, to love the way I'm wired
You gon' need some patience and I'ma need some self-restraint
I know I get in my way, but if I convince you to stay
I, I gotta make sure you're ready
Hit the gym because you got shit to carry
I've been eating good, getting sick like my baggage
Lift with your knees, 'cause I'ma put you through
Boo Thang Bootcamp
You got to know what to do when you do what you're doing
You've gotta love me right, love me right
Boo Thang Bootcamp
You got to know what to do when you do what you're doing
You've gotta love me right, love me right
You gotta, you gotta (Boo Thang Bootcamp), you, you, you gotta (you got to know what to do)
You gotta, you gotta, you, you, you, you, you (when you do what you're doing)
You gotta, you gotta, you, you, you gotta (you've gotta love me right, love me right)
You gotta, you gotta, you, you, you, you, you
