Its Emino
She said she really grew up poor like me
Don't believe in nothin' but the almighty
Just a likkle jeans and a pure white tee
She never did forever be nobody wifey, yeah
She while I may not pretty but, your heart is amiss
Play it like a villain 'cause she caught in a wave
Tonite I am walkin' away
Lined up my mind, on the grind, yeah, yeah
Tonite I might fall in love, dependin' on how you hold me
I'm glad that I'm calmin' down, can't let no one come control me
Keep dancin' and call it love, she fightin' but fallin' slowly
If ever you are in doubt, remember what mama told me
Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
Your back against the world
I never trade you for anybody else, say
Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
The best thing in all the world
I never trade you for anybody else, say
Brown skin melanin uptown girl
The best one out of all Africa
Fine wine like a Marsala
look inna the mirror loving that Deep Chocolate, Cinnamon, Mocha, Caramel complexion
Gyal you me I say ya the best in the world
Can I take ah picture
Modified it on my wall
Make I take you to Nigeria
Lagos straight to Kenya
See the gift of nature
Wey go make u love adventure
Girl you know say u are ah diva
Beauty brighter than gold and silver
I love everything about you
And your nappy nappy curls
Tell me what a man go do
Them men, them gon' fall in love with you and all of your glory
Your skin is not only dark, it shines and it tells your story
Keep dancin', they can't control you
They watchin', they all adore you
If ever you are in doubt, remember what mama told you
Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
Your back against the world
I never trade you for anybody else, say
Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
The best thing in all the world
I never trade you or anybody else, say
Brown skin girl
Your skin just like pearls
The best thing in the world
I never trade you for anybody else, singin'...
