hello guys.
Sorry for my bad English. I'm struggling with writing a text in English, for a song that I wrote. Is not my habit write the lyrics of the songs. I only write the music (rock genre).
The song in question is a dedication to my partner. He speaks primarily of sexual freedom of expression, tolerance, judgment, etc. ...

The text is 90% complete, but unfortunately I'm stuck with a sentence beginning and towards the end of the song.

The words in black are the final versions of the text. The phrases in construction are the red ones. I hope it is not too complicated to create the right metric without a melodic reference. If necessary, I could also post the audio track...Please, help me!

Here's the lyrics:

song title Follow de Brand (de Brand is a last name of Cristina de Brand):

Guys i need your attention                             (I'm not convinced of this)
one four hundred on tex
six or four eleven ten four
of her circus of sex            (I evaluate alternatives)

She's one red four one eighty bronze
nine one ten eight one bright
makes it feel your sexation
neck one Red four one five


  (chorus)
  now we follow de Brand                    
  now we follow de Brand                    
  raise your glass to your freedom      
  comes to your funny band;                
  now we follow de Brand                    
  now we follow de Brand                    
  leave all your preconceptions            
  we don't needed whip-hand  
         


she does not loves to label                        
but a lot do often                                        
they say that she make scandal
             
two one four eight and ten

but she knows how to beat the rap        
in dull bustle of crowd  
                             
to their glances of ten yard                  
she replies by her sound  

          (chorus)      
       now we follow de Brand                  
       now we follow de Brand                  
       by this side of the river                    
       we can dance and have fun              
       now we follow de Brand                    
       now we follow de Brand                    
       come on jump up and over              
       no one here will be banned  
   

and doesn't matter what your sex        
if you're white or you're black              
what she really sees in you guys              
is your heart and your head

      
Seven yellow one hundred five        (right)or(us)   rhymes                
eighteen pink hundred bus              (us) rhymes
it is nice and makes you feel alright            
so guys sing all with us
 

  (chorus)  
  do not judge what she does            
  do not judge what we does              
  don't be serf of conventions            
  it isn't right it isn't wrong                  
  do not judge what she does          
  do not judge what he  does            
  do without all your phantoms          
  what is right? what is wrong?
 

   (bridge)  
   "by de Brand we can feel all right                  
    and  you won’t need to repress yourself      
    we are ready to sing all night                          
    and all night we continue to yell yeah!"

        
  (chorus)
  So we follow de Brand                      
  now we follow de Brand                            
  no one man and no woman                  
  will no longer be tagged                        
  and do not judge what she does          
  do not judge what we does              
  it's uselèss to feel guilty                        
  it isn't right it isn't wrong...
               

“so we follow, we follow de brand now we follow,
we follow de brand now we follow
... ad lib"

thank you in advance songsthatcry. In the meantime, I would ask you if the last two words of the third line indicates they make sense.

"but she knows how to beat the rap        
in dull bustle of crowd                                
to their glances of bad gaup                  
she replies by her sound"

I'm trying to finish the third row making it rhyme with rap. I found a lot of words, with the right meaning, but none that would rhyme with rap.

I ask you if can make sense that "bad Gaup" in the context of the sentence?
