Lirik Lagu My Skin – Lizzo

Learning to love yourself and like learning to love your body is like a whole journey that I feel like every person, but more specifically, women, have to go through so I feel like doing this is a good way to kinda break through and kinda seal the last chapter of the “learning to love” and just loving..

 

Ooh, what’s deeper than, what’s deeper than the darkest best

Kept secret? Beneath the surface, we could

Let it bring us together, or it could tear us apart, oh

I’m filled with it, I gotta love with no conditions

Though it’s hard to re-envision time and time again

Even when, even when it didn’t matter anymore

The most beautiful thing that you ever seen

Is even bigger than what we think it means

Reflections in my bloodstreams, it’s even bigger than

I woke up in this, I woke up in this

In my skin

I can’t wash it away, so you can’t take it from me

My brown skin

 

Real world, big girl meets world

A crazy position, now your dreams is your mission, huh?

Staring in the mirror, realizing, wish it worked

Now all I wish is for a chance to give my kids a Ford

I got a family tree that’s worth praising the Lord

Mama looking like the second, whoo! Look at God

Sister like a soldier, hold it down

Southwest gon’ hold it down, uh

I love you, don’t forget it, you beautiful Black masterpiece!

Boy, they don’t make brothers like you

Uh, make it happen with that Black girl magic

The hat trick off of what we must do

 

Pardon me, just left a message to the city

Words stuck between my teeth, so gritty

Pay him for each minute I’m seething

A Black girl mixed with a little bit of Sacagawea

I pocket subpoenas, I swallow my pride and my ego

I wear my flaws on my sleeve and my skin like a peacoat

I see someone like me ashamed to be

And honestly, I’m really really

I’m fed up wit’ it, try to send it up like a FedEx

I’m wondering what they sayin’ next

Can’t pretend to not hear it

It’s your beauty, they can’t have it

It’s yours, they can’t have it

I’m done with the struggle. I wanna-I just wanna enjoy my life now and maybe appreciate my skin..

 

I woke up in this, I woke up in this

In my skin

I can’t wash it away, so you can’t take it from me

My brown skin

Oh, I can’t wash it away

No, you can’t take it from me

My skin, your skin, yeah!

Oh, I can’t wash it away

No, you can’t take it from me

Ooh, my skin, ooh, my skin, yeah!

 

This is something I was born wit’, you know? You can’t buy this at a store, so hey..
