Look at the colors
Envy the colors
Look at the colors
Envy the colors
Look at the colors
Each one is beautiful
Don't you wish to be fruitful?
But isn't it duller to absent-pigmented
Doesn't that make us limited?
Take a picture but you won't find me in the dark
I deserve more light can you spare to share a spark
I don't wanna become just one more skeleton
God makes no mistakes but how can I live with too much melanin
Melanin, melanin...
They say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
But that doesn't loosen the noose
Sometimes I feel like a fatherless child
Take a picture but you won't find me in the dark
I deserve more light can you spare to share a spark
I don't wanna become just one more skeleton
God makes no mistakes but how can I live with too much melanin
Melanin, melanin...
Well is it worth it to be blacker than your own heart?
Don't let me fade away
I gave myself up
I gave myself up to all of this melanin
Melanin, melanin...
