BROWN SKIN GIRL

Brown skin girl
Your skin just like pearls
The best thing in the world
Never trade you for anybody else

Can't let no one come control me
Keep dancing and call it love
She fights it, but falling slowly
If ever you are in doubt
Remember what Mama told me

Same skin that was broken
Be the same skin takin' over
Most things out of focus view
But when you're in the room, they notice you
'Cause you're beautiful
Yeah, you're beautiful

Pose like a trophy when Naomi's walkin'
She need an Oscar for that pretty dark skin
Pretty like Lupita when the cameras close in
Drip broke the levee when my Kellys roll in

There's complexities in complexion
But your skin, it glow like diamonds
Pigment like the earth, you be giving birth
To everything alive, baby, know your worth
