Keke Palmer - Skin Deep lyrics

[Keke Palmer - Skin Deep lyrics]

What up, what up? Listen

What you starin' in the mirror
For telling yourself you're ugly?
What you wearing those high heels for
When they're torturing your feet?
(You know they're killing you)
Why you puttin' all that makeup on
Hiding your pretty face?
Blowin' all your money in that salon
Tryin' to find your place? (No)

In this world, you fit in, or you're out
And you're made to believe that this
Is what it's all about

And don't you know real
Beauty shines from within?
It's what you wearing under your skin
Your perfect imperfections
Led you in the wrong direction
And made you think that you are incomplete
But looks are only skin deep, oh oh oh oh
Yeah yeah, yeah

Why you flippin through the magazine
Trying to be those girls? (Girl, stop it)
Gettin' all frustrated
But it's not the end of the world
(It's superficial)
So what if you can't get into a size three?
You're beautiful to me (beautiful to me)
Stop trying to be Tyra's top model
Girl, go and find your own road to follow

In this world, you fit in, or you're out
And you're made to believe that this
Is what it's all about

And don't you know real
Beauty shines from within?
It's what you wearing under your skin
Your perfect imperfections
Led you in the wrong direction
And made you think that you are incomplete
But looks are only skin deep

From the sidewalk, to the boardwalk
To the catwalk
Girls talk about the way you walk
But it's not your fault
So if the girls talk and
Watch you like a hawk they love to hate
And they can't wait to get
Inside and make you cry cry, cry, cry, cry
Just let 'em know that you hold ya own
Now being you is not all wrong
Do ya thang, let your light shine
They'll come around in God's time
And if they don't, just let it be
When they stop being shallow
Then they'll see
Girl, I'm tellin' you, c'mon!
Just be yourself

In this world, you fit in, or you're out
And you're made to believe that this
Is what it's all about

And don't you know real
Beauty shines from within?
It's what you wearing under your skin
Your perfect imperfections
Led you in the wrong direction
And made you think that you are incomplete
But looks are only skin deep, oh oh oh oh
Yeah yeah, yeah
