Lyrics

She light skinned so she never had a role model
She's not black, not white, keep it all bottled
Never met her father, never felt dateable
The barbie dolls growin' up weren't relatable
'Cause Ken loved the skinny white girl with a blonde top
So true love always felt like a long shot
Hates black men, they remind her of her father
White men comment on her skin and leave her bothered
Think that she's the prettiest thing that I've ever seen
Exotic goddess, she be lookin' like a beauty queen
She don't wanna hear that, she don't got the patience
Hates her hair curly, but she don't wanna straighten
Her mom don't understand what it's like to be her
No one to relate to or even to be heard
So if I ruled the world, I'd give her what she deserves
I think she beautiful, not the other B word
Ain't no doubt about it, girl, you got it
Don't you know you're beautiful, beautiful?
You tell me no, then turn and walk away
And I say no, you're golden in every way
Wish that you could see you the way that I can see you
Girl, you're way more perfect than you say
'Cause you're golden, golden
I know that you're golden
I see that you're worth more every day
Uh, I knew this pretty young thing when I was fifteen
But I was too shy, she ain't ever get me
She like them older boys, I mean them older boys
She thought a college boyfriend was her only choice
I never stood a chance, I just never got it
I let it happen when I maybe should've fought it
Did she feel mature, or did she hate herself?
A decision like that, I guess she played herself
Yeah, but you know just how the story goes
He took her innocence, went back to glory road
Yeah, as peer pressure, here's the greatest drug
She was thinkin' hugs, all he wanna do is fuck
So he left her, and she was heartbroken
Now she cryin' 'round me like the sky's open
Damn, that shit's illegal for a reason
Told her that she's beautiful, she just don't believe it
Ain't no doubt about it, girl, you got it
Don't you know you're beautiful, beautiful?
You tell me no, then turn and walk away
And I say no, you're golden in every way
Wish that you could see you the way that I can see you
Girl, you're way more perfect than you say
'Cause you're golden, golden
I know that you're golden
I see that you're worth more every day
