EB - Skin Glowin' When My Headspace Low Lyrics

Let the beat run a little bit, yeah
Shout-out to black women!
I think I realized at some point
That being intelligent and being black is dangerous
Anytime I showed I was smart or good at something
I feel like people tried to like
Find a way to either
Put me down or turn me the other way
Yo, skin glowing
Used to hate it when my skin glowing
White shadow, say I was no one
Self-esteem was so, low, low and
Western education didn't teach crowing, yeah
Fair skins or stay slaves, oceangoing, is what they told us
So I'm drowning to the flow of the ocean motion
Motives sort of Pisces but I'm really Virgo
Boasting omens the size of a furrow
Six feet deep but so narrow
Been lying a lot, facades, hide the sorrows
Looking for God, a way out the burrow
Tryna kill these pains so they don't last till tomorrow, I
I gotta follow through, don't pussy out and be a victim
With these niggas pissing off like Chuck Berry picking thots
Tired of sitting back and getting put in a box
Dark skin done with the sanctimonious broads
Now, why they say they hate black but bay they want that
With the dark foundation on your pale ass, hair texture ain't even nap
Looking like a hoodrat, Bregoli wig all pushed back, huh
I assure that
Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah
Yo, woo hah
You want our rhythm but you don't want our blues
You better back up fore I do you like Pac did Hughes Brothers
Be warned, I'm like a storm with my own thunder
I make the room rumble
Some people move like it's all going under
Some people prove that it's all in the number
Some people groove like they all bout loving
I wonder, how you goin' say you love when you don't love your color
Keep the black luster, alright
Yeah, skin glowing
Make us hate us when our skin glowing
White shadow, say we are no one
You gon listen, or, blow, blow up
Blow, blow up
I'm a nigga man
Watch me dance
