Dead Prez The Beauty Within
[Intro] Dedicated, not to Americas top model... But to the natural girls right next door ..How they say in avatar...I see you.
[Verse 1]
This hollywood world so pretentious Every other girl got a perm or extensions. But you dont even really wear lipstick Still your beauty is a natural mistic. Indigenous strong cheek bones from your lineage Not what the main stream image is, Natural hair is your heritage, But to see it without chemicals is rare as the pyramids. I was coming from the gym again Bumping 2Pac never call you bitch again. She crossed the street melanin glistenin. Felt the energy, something about you so interestin. The prototype eve from genesis. Ghetto empress Nefrotity resemblance. So sweet, so street, and genuine Real black girl I salute your existance. I could see us just kickin it. Buildin an intimate friendship more than just hittin it. Down to earth like greens and corn bread. She dont need no weaves or contacts. Not judging other girls that got that, Im just sayin you the truth, never doubt that... Cuz you got that.
[Chorus] Beautys within, not just on the surface. The skin that your in, your already perfect. They got nothing on you baby. Nothin on you baby Beautiful girls come in all types of flavors. When you love yourself, its always gon be haters. They got nothin on you baby Just keep doin you baby.
[Verse 2] This is going out to my African queen Dark skin, light skin, everything between Lookin so good when you step up on the scene Smelling so sweet, so fresh, and so clean Even though we dont see you on the flat screen Aint no doubt about what you got in them jeans I dont mean denim its your family tree Yea its all about red, black, and that green For Chianisa, and Falina, and for all the pretty little girls Goin out to my Mama, my favorite woman And for all the women in the world No they dont love you on the radio And they try to play you in the video But you so beautiful and natural....oh...ooh..
[Chorus]
