lirik lagu ayoinmotion - pretty for a dark-skinned girl
sticks and stones
could break my bones
but words could never hurt me
their words could never cut me
–
lies
she tells to herself
think that it’s best
better than this feeling in her chest
better that feeling she was less
dark skin was their issue
yet she cries in a tissue
her beauty tied to self-confidence
she seeking sense in backhanded compliments
waste of time / i didn’t know
insecure / i never showed
the hate for her skin
got her wishing
white was her kin
got her wishing
melanin was thin
self hate, she’s pulling out her kinks
she’s feeling like she stinks
she’s living on the brink
self hate k!lls, it k!lls from within
chorus:
pretty for a dark-skinned girl x 2
he said, she’s pretty for a dark-skinned girl
bridge:
naturally she’s ebony
the world see’s an anomaly
she wakes up to greet herself
with hopes to see somebody else
with skin, maybe a little more fair
and eyes, a little more clear
she don’t now the value
of being black and beautiful
verse 2:
ebony shinning
stars aligning
presence in my life
perfect timing
sun kissed, your skin is glorious
insecurities, her confidence so porous
legs so long and luscious
still she was so self-conscious
they say beauty begins within
she thinks beauty begins with skin
chorus:
pretty for a dark-skinned girl x 2
he said, she’s pretty for a dark-skinned girl
