YoungR (Dario Darnell) - Pretty for a Dark-Skinned Girl lyrics

Sticks and stones Could break my bones But words could never hurt me Their words could never cut me - Lies She tells to herself Think that it's best Better than this feeling in her chest Better that feeling she was less Dark skin was their issue Yet she cries in a tissue Her beauty tied to self-confidence She seeking sense in backhanded compliments Waste of time / I didn't know Insecure / I never showed The hate for her skin Got her wishing White was her kin Got her wishing Melanin was thin Self hate, she's pulling out her kinks She's feeling like she stinks She's living on the brink Self hate k**s, It k**s from within Chorus: Pretty for a dark-skinned girl X 2 He said, she's pretty for a dark-skinned girl Bridge: Naturally she's ebony The world see's an anomaly She wakes up to greet herself With hopes to see somebody else With skin, maybe a little more fair And eyes, a little more clear She don't now the value Of being black and beautiful Verse 2: Ebony shinning Stars aligning Presence in my life Perfect timing Sun kissed, your skin is glorious Insecurities, her confidence so porous Legs so long and luscious Still she was so self-conscious They say beauty begins within She thinks beauty begins with skin Chorus: Pretty for a dark-skinned girl X 2 He said, she's pretty for a dark-skinned girl
