Lyrics to Skin
I see melanin skin in the mirror
One of one hand made endeavour
I know that God's never failed us
He don't take L's so
I know its in my DNA, DNA
So imma make this a PSA, PSA, ooh
Mmm check the price uh yeah
Check it twice yeah
I know its in my DNA, DNA, DNA
I wish I could talk to my younger self
And tell her everything will be alright
You are beautiful just the way you are
God has never told not one lie
Everything that they've said to you
Doesn't have to define you (Define you)
You are wonderfully made just the way you are
You don't have to change cause
God made you this way
African and melanin
He made every shade
I know He don't play
You don't have to change
Anything about your skin
Learn to see yourself how He sees you
I see beautiful skin in the mirror
One of one hand made endeavour
I know that God's never failed us
He don't take L's so
I know its in my DNA, DNA
So imma make this a PSA, PSA
Mmm check the price uh yeah
Check it twice yeah
I know its in my DNA, DNA
Used to have an audience of one
I would dance You taught me how to run
Showed me all the flowers in the field
Said don't worry 'bout tomorrow's meal
My Fathers arms are all I need to feel
The promise that He made is like a seal
Tape it down deep into my heart
New wine skin in the vineyard
YHWH made me this way
Can't drink from the cup they traded
They swapped His blood for the Minute Made
No salt left, only a bitter taste
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay
Please don't fade the color of my face
I'm fashioned in the image of the Lord
There's more in store
But I'm tongue tied with that frost bite
Spent my life standing outside
All this time I've been outlined
The world saw me as an outlier
Had a problem being off-white
Almost lost sight
But it's alright because when
I see beautiful skin in the mirror
One of one hand made endeavour
I know that God's never failed us
He don't take L's so
I know its in my DNA, DNA
So imma make this a PSA, PSA
Mmm check the price uh yeah
Check it twice yeah
I know its in my DNA, DNA
I see melanin skin in the mirror
One of one hand made endeavour
I know that God's never failed us
He don't take L's so
I know its in my DNA, DNA
So imma make this a PSA, PSA, ooh
Mmm check the price uh yeah
Check it twice yeah
I know its in my DNA, DNA, DNA
One of one hand made endeavour
I know that God's never failed us
