Olivia K & The Parkers - Melanin

I like the way my brown skin looks in the sun
There's plenty more Vitamin D for everyone
You can even let your pale friends out for a run
They love it
You love it when I'm walking on the beach and you can see
I'm not a red lobster hiding underneath a tree
You see the way my lineage has been so good to me
You love it
Them blue eyed boys need brown skin girls to rock their world
Just look at her, all dressed in pearls, they're lovin' it
So take a hit, say this is it
I need the melanin
I need the melanin
I need the melanin
I like to see my Nubian queens in the winter
Still so sharp that you might catch a splinter
Walking too close cuz you really wanna linger
Nah linga
You love to see my Sudanese girls on the catwalk
Everything she do make the crowd want to talk
Camera love you boo cuz you know where you came from
They love it
Them blue eyed boys need brown skin girls to rock their world
Just look at her, all dressed in pearls, they're lovin' it
So take a hit, say this is it
I need the melanin
I need the melanin
I need the melanin
