Lyrics Pretty Brown Skin (feat. EUGENE KIING & Mav City Gospel Choir) - Maverick City Music , EUGENE KIING



Pretty, brown skin, pretty, light skin, pretty, dark skin
I see African written in your DNA
Hello choco-melanin from the motherland with your black skin
Never should you want it any other way
First things first
I'm blackity, black, black
I'm blackity, black, black
I'm blackity, black, black
If you don't like that, you're wackity, wack, wack
You're wackity, wack-
I said what I said and that's that (ayy)
This is for them queens that's rocking 'em kinky twist
From box braids to bantu knots and full lips
Them dreadlocks, crochets, afros and real hips
Them pom-poms and edges that's real slick
Now catch this
Your black presence is necessary
From big mama to Aunty Obama as First Lady are validated
I still remember my mother's gumbo
Saturday mornings waking to soulful sounds of gospel
The richness of ancestral legacies and culture
Our history extends beyond our American borders
So please believe the hype
You're not too much, you are enough
Never shrink back, always speak up
Head tilted high, one fist to the sky
Don't doubt your worth
Always add tax, know yourself first
One thing's for sure
You're made in the image of God, shape of the melanin bob
Black woman, you will never be stopped (ayy)
Pretty, brown skin, pretty, light skin, pretty, dark skin
I see African written in your DNA
Hello choco-melanin from the motherland with your black skin
Never should you want it any other way
Second things first
Still blackity, black, black
Still blackity, black, black
Still blackity, black
It's a blessing not a curse
Don't ever forget that
Don't ever forget
If you need reminders then run this back
"You're so pretty for a black girl" is not a compliment
Don't whitewash who you are to be an option
"You don't sound white", you just finished up your doctorate
Black Benz, new house, pocket's real lucrative
Pop, pop, pop, pop
Boss is CEO
Boss, boss, boss, boss, boss chick (ayy)
Killing stereotype, switching up the narrative
Ain't no explanation needed, that's all Harriet
Raising black kids with some black sense, liberation, educate them
Let 'em dream big, adding flavor
Keep it seasoned, give 'em reasons
To believe in what our ancestors dreamed of
You are beautiful, invaluable, distinguishably royal
Next time you look in the mirror, pause and say, "Black girl, I love you"
I love you, I love you (then repeat)
One thing's for sure
You're made in the image of God, shape of the melanin bob
Black woman, you will never be stopped (ayy)
Pretty brown skin, pretty light skin, pretty dark skin
I see African written in your DNA
Hello choco melanin from the motherland with your black skin
Never should you want it any other way
Pretty brown skin, pretty light skin, pretty dark skin
I see African written in your DNA
Hello choco melanin from the motherland with your black skin
Never should you want it any other way
Remember who you are, oh
Remember who you are and whose you are, shooting star
Don't forget that part
Know that you belong just as you are
With your pretty, brown skin
