Skin so divine
Radiance emitted, so flawless by design
Interior beauty, yo that's why you outshine
Feel free to drop a line, yeah that would suit me fine
Forgive my ways yo I feel the need to represent
Not just because just like Jesus, you heaven-sent
But nowadays I feel it's so relevant
Cos rappers don't wanna step in the room with the elephant
Yes whoever's chilling in your presence is
Blessed, I pray you don't forget your heritage
And don't ever dumb it down
Be sure to big it up
Be proud of where your point of reference is
In these days when everything's so negative
We broke the chains but history's so repetitive
A lack of knowledge can really become your nemesis
Let's try and flip it for our benefit
Yeah
But this is not a love song
Yeah, this is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
Didn't write a second verse but I'll address it to
Black men, not all of us just the fair few
Who be trippin like you pretty for a dark skin
When your mum's of the same shade
I'm tryna pull you out that Willie Lynch effect you're drowned in
And install some deeper love for the brown skin
Specifically I'm talking bout giving leverage
No discrimination, ain't no issues wit your preference but
Feminists gon' probably say that they don't want my help
I apologise man I just gotta say what's felt
There's an effect from every single cause
But my view isn't the same view as yours
When my skin isn't the same hue as yours
Ignorance is bliss, a certain few were taught
For sure, just hold off the hate forever pause
If the black girl curtseys I give a round of applause
Of course
But this is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
It was the brown eyes that I clocked first
Had my head ticking like clockwork
And when we would text past midnight
I couldn't find the right words to say like crossword
Man I can't believe that I crossed her
Her ex dude took an L when he lost her
Couple man try slide in the DMs but she don't ever see them as nothing but imposters
Yeah natural hair stays glowing
Intellectual and focused
Best thing about her is she stays outspoken
Good thing I'm a poet
Living for the moment
This is my diagnosis
She'd make a crowd split
Red Sea like Moses
Never unnoticed, but that don't get to her head
Man she fixes me up when I'm broken
Now I just wanna scream it from the window
Cos I'm just tryna let all of my friends know
She keeps me to the rhythm and the tempo
And days with mad stress she prevents those
But don't watch that, as I ride this crescendo
The flow stays ill you can see how the pen goes
Now that we getting to the end zone
She told me I was never in the friend zone
Yeah
But this is not a love song
Nah, this is not a love song
This a love me a black girl with brains and nobody can judge song
This is not a love song
