Boonaa Mohammed - Beautiful lyrics

Maybe you're smarter than me
Or maybe you just know how much your worth?
Or maybe you don't need anyone
To tell you you're beautiful
Cause you already knew that the day
You came out the womb
Maybe you know too much
Or maybe you just expect the worst
Or maybe you aint trying to be nobody's baby
Unless he speaks with your dad first
Maybe you're saving yourself for heaven cause
You can't stand this earth
Maybe you're saving yourself from hell
Iblis and the ones who are cursed
Maybe you see past dеception
Maybe this world is a lie
Maybе we're like in the matrix
But you're unplugged and you can fly
Maybe you just wanna go back home
So you stare at the sky
Maybe you know the difference between


Living and just being alive
Maybe you are a slice of
This life's ultimate prize
Cause maybe your mind has
Been divinely designed
But maybe it's just me
Or maybe it's maybeline
Or maybe I should do a better job at
Lowering my gaze but honestly you're amazing
And I treat you like a queen
Cause you give me no choice
My sister in deen it is time to rejoice
For you who believe and work righteous deeds
There is a garden of bliss
For all of eternity
If only you would believe what
Your eyes could not see
Which begs the question what is beauty?

Maybe it's the way her body's shaped
Or the way she's dressed?
But, if the whole world was blind
How many people would you impress
The best couldn't care less for tight
Jeans or a short dress
Or those shirts that expose what
God told you to protect
And I don't mean to sound rude
But how could you approve of any dude
Who doesn't mind sharing the
Whole world with you?
And he don't think you're beautiful
He think your booty full
Glossed lips with make up
On every single cuticle
And it aint cute at all
Cause if those shoes hurt your feet
Why don't you just take them off
Some girls think that pain equals sexy
And if you got it show it off
But nobody even looks happy with
Those plastic smiles on
And those magazines are wrong
Forget men and their songs
Love yourself first before you
Take anyone else on
And to love yourself is to love the
One whom which all love belongs
There is beauty in creation
But creator really got it going on
There is something seriously wrong
With pre-teens in thongs
And middle aged moms who cant
See life move on
So they tell wrinkles to be gone
Buy hair to make it long
You cant keep it real
Cause you don't even know who you are
You women are oppressed
Forced to flaunt your thighs and chest
And before puberty, you already on a diet
Promoting nudity
Like it's some kind of natural science
But, you're a diamond
I shouldn't even see past the
Glass cage unless I'm buying
But, if you have no shame
Than do as you please, cause what is beauty
But an extension of modesty?

So maybe she's right
Maybe she does deserve respect
Maybe she walks around feeling
Like a superhero
With that scarf dangling from her neck
Maybe nobody is forcing her to wear it
Maybe she would never leave home without it
And maybe she don't care what people think
Cause most opinions aint even valid
Maybe she feels free maybe she
Has peace of mind
And maybe she'll give you a piece of her
Mind if you step out of line
Maybe she isn't perfect
But maybe she's trying
Maybe she is just taking things
One day at a time
Maybe she laughs and maybe she cries
And maybe you would be surprised
At everything she keeps inside
Maybe she hears every single word
Said by those cowards
Maybe she has no problem defying
All those who doubt her
Maybe she is a warrior and
The silence is getting louder
Maybe she wears that shield cause every
Single day is a battle
Maybe she is more than the skin she is in
Maybe we should start learning how
To love what's within
Maybe God only knows all the
Places she has been
But maybe she comes back to him
Again and again
Maybe she's not afraid to die
Just afraid not to live
Maybe I am not worthy of
Everything she can give
Maybe she is kind, sweet, pure
Gentle and suitable
And maybe, just maybe she is beautiful
