Beautiful Skin Goodie Mob

[Intro: Cee-Lo]
Mmm
This particular song right here is
Dedicated to the Black woman
And it doesn't pertain to all Black women
Some of y'all disrespect y'all selves 'cause you don't know who you are in the first place
This is out of common respect for all women, period
Word up

Yo

[Verse 1: Cee-Lo]
I'm quite single
And occasionally, I mingle
But aside from all the rest
She sparks my interest
No, ma'am, I don't know you
Just offering the common respect I feel I owe you
Also some conversation, companionship, common ground, and common sense
There's no such thing as coincidence
In me finding you here
And I really hate screaming in your ear
So some other time, okay?
I waited a day, hello?
This is Carlito from a couple of days ago, you sound tired
Forgive me if I've called you too late
But what better time to relate mind-state?
Where could I begin?
Has anyone ever told you you got beautiful skin?
You're more than welcome, what do you desire within?
I just wanna be, there's no need to put titles on you and me
Those are limitations, living and learning are our only obligations
Equality, honesty, independence, intelligence, emotion, and devotion
Humbly seeking to hear God when he's speaking
At one time, my mind just couldn't conceive
A woman had to dress a certain way to believe
But in the same breath, allow me to say
That if you believed, young lady, you wouldn't dress that way
And I was attracted to your class, I couldn't see all your ass
And I was very content and you deserved every complement
Now, remember our indifferences make us the same, you gotta have some game
Or you ain't even gon' be able to take care of yourself, uh
And, love, when I look at you, I see my reflection
So I offer my love, affection, and protection
Shorty, you dead fine, but the bottom line is
You still my sister
