《Beautiful Skin》歌词

[00:00:00] Beautiful Skin - Goodie Mob

[00:00:02] This particular song right here is

[00:00:06] Dedicated to the black woman

[00:00:10] And it doesn't pertain to all black women

[00:00:13] Some of y'all disrespect y'allself

[00:00:15] Because you don't know who you are in the first place

[00:00:17] This is out of common respect for all women period

[00:00:21] Word up like this song

[00:00:23] Yo I'm quite single and occaisionally I mingle

[00:00:27] But aside from all the rest she sparks my interest

[00:00:30] No ma'am I don't know you

[00:00:32] Just offering the common respect I feel I owe you

[00:00:35] Also some conversation companionship

[00:00:37] Common-ground and common-sense

[00:00:39] There's no such thing as coincidence in me finding you here

[00:00:42] And I really hate screaming in your ear so some other time ok

[00:00:46] I waited a day hello this the caller you told from a couple of days ago

[00:00:51] You sound tired forgive me if I call you too late

[00:00:53] But what better time to relate mind-state Where could I begin

[00:00:56] Hasn't anyone ever told you you got beautiful skin

[00:00:58] You're more than welcome what do you desire within

[00:01:00] I just wanna be there's no need to put titles on you and me

[00:01:03] Those are limitations living and learning are our only obligations

[00:01:06] Equality honesty independence intelligence emotion and devotion

[00:01:11] Humbly seeking to hear God when he's speaking

[00:01:13] At one time my mind just couldn't conceive

[00:01:15] A woman had to dress a certain way to believe

[00:01:18] But in the same breath allow me to say

[00:01:21] That if you believed young lady you wouldn't dress that way

[00:01:25] And I was attracted to your class I couldn't see all yo' ass

[00:01:28] And I was very content you deserved every complement

[00:01:30] Now remember our indifferences make us the same

[00:01:33] You gotta have some game or many of you

[00:01:35] Won't even be able to take care of yourself uh

[00:01:37] And love when I look at you I see my reflection

[00:01:39] So I offer my love affection and protection

[00:01:43] Shawty you dead fine but the bottom-line is you're still my sister

[00:01:49] Well I say you're my beginnin' my end

[00:01:52] You're my sista lover and friend

[00:01:55] God is your light from within

[00:01:58] It shines through your beautiful skin

[00:02:01] What they say 'bout you ain't true

[00:02:04] There's no me if there is no you

[00:02:07] I hope that you understand

[00:02:11] You got to respect yourself before I can

[00:02:14] Yeah I met you and y'all knew saw you again on Marietta

[00:02:17] Downtown Atlanta checkin' your long legs got me smirkin'

[00:02:20] Fixed me dinner one night candles lit

[00:02:22] Kinda thought you was slick in the beginnin'

[00:02:24] But it turned out you wouldn't lie

[00:02:26] Looked me in my eye I listened

[00:02:28] Sucked it up pushed on we made amends both sides clicked

[00:02:32] True friends since then years done gone by

[00:02:35] Brought a baby girl into this world made our parents grandfolks

[00:02:38] Household with no hope took care of ye you me

[00:02:43] When shit got put out on the curb

[00:02:45] Closer than the skin on the back of my hand

[00:02:47] Through the thick and thin we can win

[00:02:49] Beautiful black skin

[00:02:50] Well I say you're my beginnin' my end

[00:02:53] You're my sista lover and friend

[00:02:56] God is your light from within

[00:02:58] It shines through your beautiful skin

[00:03:02] What they say 'bout you ain't true

[00:03:05] There's no me if there is no you

[00:03:08] I hope that you understand

[00:03:10] You got to respect yourself before I can

[00:03:15] No need to compete with the music loud

[00:03:18] Or stairs cold put on a scale of one to ten you a twelve

[00:03:22] I chose her over jail and hell

[00:03:25] Originally from ATL

[00:03:27] Compatible souls come together under bad weather

[00:03:30] To discuss distrust amongst the so-called

[00:03:33] Good in every woman how I wish this was true

[00:03:36] I deal with facts only already done cloned me

[00:03:39] Why I sang the blues when there's only one God

[00:03:42] That watches over our every step I need his help

[00:03:46] When I'm walkin' lookin' for the right female I can't tell sometimes

[00:03:49] They tell me the devil's comin' humble in his approach

[00:03:53] Spontaneous with the game

[00:03:55] He caught the naive of a girl fallin' for the ok

[00:03:58] Let the pistol smoke the one you live by

[00:04:00] Die by examples of how relationships can be

[00:04:03] I rolls the dice takin' a chance at crappin' out

[00:04:07] Like today boy I lost one of my best hips

[00:04:10] Natural thick lips no animal fat implants

[00:04:12] Wide load just started workin' at the airport

[00:04:15] 19 years old worth more than her weight in gold

[00:04:19] But it was all my fault so don't cry understand

[00:04:22] If down the line I want you back and the feelin' ain't mutual

[00:04:25] Just promise me you'll find a new man that's 'bout some business

[00:04:30] Hope she find what her was lookin' for like a dream to my end

[00:04:34] I wanted to be more than friends

[00:04:35] Beautiful black skin

[00:04:38] Well I say you're my beginnin' my end

[00:04:43] You're my sista lover and friend

[00:04:46] God is your light from within

[00:04:49] It shines through your beautiful skin

[00:04:52] What they say 'bout you ain't true

[00:04:55] There's no me if there is no you

[00:04:58] I hope that you understand

[00:05:01] You got to respect yourself before I can

[00:05:04] Well I say you're my beginnin' my end

[00:05:07] You're my sista lover and friend

[00:05:09] God is your light from within
