griot b – skin you’re in كلمات اغاني

Loading...

you could be dark, you could be light skinned
it doesn’t matter the shade you’re in
love your black skin

you could be dark, you could be light skinned
it doesn’t matter the shade you’re in
love your black skin

i scrolled through twitter, i checked my feed
under a picture, i saw a tweet
a black man named richard, he goes by rick
said this sista looked good, “for a dark skinned chick”
look rick! that’s not a compliment
you’re caught up in the mind tricks of willie lynch
he told the slave owners this;
“turn complexion into a compet-tion
make them jealous of each other that’s the mission
separate them by their gender and their color skin is
treat the offspring of your rape real different
intermix them into the house and into the kitchen
this lifting will be the dark slave’s ambition”
300 years later and some minds are still conditioned
for wishing for straight hair, to be light skinned
but listen, you can be either aunt vivian
black is beautiful in every shade it is in

cocoa cappuccino, honey brown
love the skin you’re in, strut in your crown
you’re beautiful. god made you beautiful
don’t you know?

what is good hair? i wanna know
is it not good if it’s worn natural?
i think that all hair is good if it’s yours
and it’s yours if it’s grown or bought from stores
you can spend plenty on brazilian and indian remy
and weave it all through your hair
if you think it looks pretty
but queen, you’re beautiful with it
and you’re beautiful without it
if you hear that only straight hair makes you beautiful
then doubt it!
don’t fall for them willie lynch mind tricks
look in the mirror and shout this
“i am beautiful from head to toe”
it’s up to you to wear an up-doo or an afro
braids, wet set, lace front, locks, or corn-rolls
love yourself in every hair style. be proud!
our queens wear crowns, some are weaving it down

cocoa cappuccino, honey brown
love the skin you’re in, strut in your crown
you’re beautiful. god made you beautiful
don’t you know?

it seems that many other cultures
appropriate our features
and these same cultures
called sarah baartman a creature
she was called a freak for her natural curves
but now curves are fleek. i like that word
light vs. dark ain’t a real contest
‘cus it shouldn’t be a contest of our complexion
colorism is result of willie lynch lessons
you’re black, you’re beautiful, and you’re a blessing
so when they throw shade ‘cus the shade you’re in
put a smile on your face don’t let those haters win
you don’t need to change the shade of your skin
say i look great in all this melanin!

mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?
can’t you tell? it’s plain to see
you made me perfectly
mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?
can’t you tell? it’s plain to see
you made me perfectly

i wrote this for my nieces and all my little cousins
i love you all to pieces i want you to love your skin

this is for kiya, mariah, eva
riley, maliyah, kennedi, mia and ryah
journey, kylie, jenna, natalia
nia, emma destiny, amiah
love your skin ladies love your skin
love yourself ladies, you’re beautiful you’re beautiful
