Melanin

In love with my
In love with my
In love with my
Ooh yeah yeah
In love with my
Ooh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah ye
In love with my
Ayzeeeeee Lieneeeeee ay

Like rubies and diamonds
Melanin's a gold mine
Wouldn't trade it for no dime
If it was a currency it would be named So Fine
Oh na na na na na na no
It's only right I uplift you one time
Different shades but that's no crime
Nubian curls glisten in the sunshine
Stand up cause it's your time

Brown skin babe I've been waiting for a while
Would you come and take your crown
Got me driving out of town
Had to put it on the line but for you I'll put it down
Introduce you to my mum
She was so fucking proud
Due to be a queen
I can see it in your eyes
Took a flight to Dubai
In the middle of July
I was walking through the dark
But you helped me see the light
Brown shade, dark shade
I aint really got a type
Full tip, when shes controlling the semi
Dark skin girl I told you already
Melanin queen, I aint phoning no jezzy
Unfolding all the lies that we've been told on the telly
But babe you've got to question everything
Them other bitches hating cause you're so intelligent
It's all irrelevant is what I keep on telling them
You drive me out of hell
Lord knows you're heaven sent

Like rubies and diamonds
Melanin's a gold mine
Wouldn't trade it for no dime
If it was a currency it would be named So Fine
Oh na na na na na na no
It's only right I uplift you one time
Different shades but that's no crime
Nubian curls glisten in the sunshine
Stand up cause it's your time

Like rubies and diamonds
Melanin's a gold mine
Wouldn't trade it for no dime
If it was a currency it would be named So Fine
Oh na na na na na na no
It's only right I uplift you one time
Different shades but that's no crime
Nubian curls glisten in the sunshine
Stand up cause it's your time

Looking back at the years of pain and sorrow
Living for today cause nothing's promised tomorrow
Obsessed with melanin like the officers from the Obbo
They held us back for years
Now we're leading so watch them follow
They know that their times been borrowed
That's for certain
Kicking down doors for the generation of hurting
Went from drop lips and blick kids
To models working
Changing the narrative of beauty I see them burning now the tables are turning
C'mon c'mon
The chocolates a thing of beauty
Saucy fellas dying legends
Our strong queens are our cuties
Been sending money back home to pay off school fees
Diamonds in the rough
Now they're shining like chocolate rubies
We've all got one duty
Make sure the kids of today see their true beauty
Make sure we catalyst change for opportunities
Make sure we stack up a change financial fluency

Cause our ladies be rocking their 4c
I foresee the millions
Was born with this million for free
Keeping up a trend of success here for we
Watching it unfold as we write our story

Be rocking their 4c
I foresee the millions
Was born with the million for free
Keeping up a trend of success here for we
Watching it unfold as we write our story

Like rubies and diamonds
Melanin's a gold mine
Wouldn't trade it for no dime
If it was a currency it would be named So Fine
Oh na na na na na na no
It's only right I uplift you one time
Different shades but that's no crime
Nubian curls glisten in the sunshine
Stand up cause it's your time

In love with my
Ooh yeah yeah
In love with my
Ooh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah ye
In love with my
In love with my

In love with my
Ooh yeah yeah
In love with my
Ooh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah ye
In love with my
In love with my
