Skin Glowin When My Headspace Low by E.B. Lyrics
[Intro: Sample, Jenna Ozo, EB]
Let the beat run a little bit, yeah
Shoutout 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
(When it’s open)
Find a way to either
(When it’s open)
Put me down or turn me the other way
[Verse 1]
Yo, skin glowing (we glowing)
Used to hate it when my skin glowing (my skin is glowing)
White shadow, say I was no one (they said I was no one)
Self-esteem was so, low, low and (damn low)
Western education didn’t teach crowing, yeah (didn’t teach shit)
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 (so lost)
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 (disgusting)
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
[Bridge]
Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah
Yo, woo hah!
[Verse 2]
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 (Alright)
Keep the black luster
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
[Outro]
I’m a nigga man
Watch me dance
Let the beat run a little bit, yeah
Shoutout 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
(When it’s open)
Find a way to either
(When it’s open)
Put me down or turn me the other way
[Verse 1]
Yo, skin glowing (we glowing)
Used to hate it when my skin glowing (my skin is glowing)
White shadow, say I was no one (they said I was no one)
