lirik lagu pretty porcelain - through gods eyes
[spoken intro]
dear heavenly father
you said that you would prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies and i just want to thank you
i thank you for loving me and seeing me the way that you do
yah, dear lord
[chorus]
people been looking at me all my life
but they ain’t never seen me through your eyes (through your eyes)
people been looking at me all my life
but they ain’t never seen me through your eyеs (through your eyes)
yah, that’s why they triеd to mishandle and mistreat me
but my head held high you can’t reach me
thankful for everything that life tried to teach me
now i’m about to take off (take off)
[verse 1]
it took so long (long) for me to come into myself (myself)
for me to reach the depths (depths)
where my inner light was being kept (kept)
i remember days asking god (god) why he made me different
but it was through me he gave the world what they was missing
yah, my melanin missing but my blood still red
and i’m still that b~tch ain’t no bend in my neck
so when you see me come correct, don’t forget
that everything that’s rare bound gon’ cost you a check, uh
pretty porcelain, thick skin you can’t break me
started modeling to show the world you can’t phase me
picked up a pen, found my voice they went crazy
had to tell them stop playing with me i’m not basic, eh
god ain’t never took his hands off me
he showed me where i’m ’bout to go won’t n0body else be
and when he seeing me soon everybody will see
you got to keep going even with turbulence in your wings
[chorus]
people been looking at me all my life
but they ain’t never seen me through your eyes (through your eyes)
people been looking at me all my life
but they ain’t never seen me through your eyes (through your eyes)
yah, that’s why they tried to mishandle and mistreat me
but my head held high you can’t reach me
thankful for everything that life tried to teach me
now i’m about to take off (take off)
[verse 2]
i remember kids spitting on me and throwing food at me
now they gonna have to throw roses when they pass me
i don’t need a lot of ig followers to gas me
i followed the most high, keep my faith, and keep it classy, yah
i got something to say
i got something to change
i got records to break
i got to make a name
until i make it, i ain’t got no time to take a break
i’m working hard till the whole world make sure i’m paid
the only pigment that i recognize is green, ~~~~
so think green when you try to picture me, ~~~~
born with it, but i rep maybelline
used to be a cheerleader now the fans cheering for me, ~~~~
my confidence is sky~high
the only time i look down is when i’m looking from the sky
if i ain’t on a rooftop i’m probably out in dubai
living life with no ceilings
couldn’t box me if you tried, oh
criminal justice major but that’s for another chapter
i’m not a snake, but i come from the home of the rattlers
showing sis dreams do come true
hbic in a hbcu
nah, check it
[chorus]
people been looking at me all my life
but they ain’t never seen me through your eyes (through your eyes)
people been looking at me all my life
but they ain’t never seen me through your eyes (through your eyes)
yeah, that’s why they tried to mishandle and mistreat me
but my head held high you can’t reach me
thankful for everything that life tried to teach me
now i’m about to take off (take off)
