You know what some people put themselves through
To look just like you?
Dark stocking, high heels, lipstick, alla that
You know what?
Without makeup you're beautiful
Whatcha you need to paint the next face for
We're not dealin with the european standard of beauty tonight
Turn off the tv and put the magazine away
In the mirror tell me what you see
See the evidence of divine presence
Women of the, carribean, they got the, golden sun
I know women on the continent got it
Nigeria, and ghana, you know they got it
Tanzania, namibia and mozambique
And bothswana, to let it speak
About latinas, columbianas
...
Tallenas, of course the brooklyn women walk that walk
And the bronx women walk that walk
Honies from queens walk that walk, nyc, atl, la
Cincinatti, the bay area...
