letra de when rainbows are enuf - j prophet

[intro: j prophet]
dear lord, please help us see how much you love us
so we can love ourselves better

[hook: j prophet & antoine]
pressed and perplexed
i know it’s not fair
i know you vexed
but don’t be in despair
you persecuted
but not abandoned though
breathe, baby, just breathe
you can handle woe

you got this power inside from god
nothing you can measure
still, let your light shine when times are hard
because you are a treasure

[verse 1: j prophet]
blue, baby blue kuz her skin is so dark
rude, they be rude when they play in the park
they kicked dirt in her face just to see if it would still show
names caused pain like they kicked her with a steel toe
no snack time or nap time could make it go away
and her pride was a stow away
she carried on the trauma
she went crying to mama
getting called untouchable wasn’t even a horrible day
jokes came steady, learned to play it off smooth
making fun of herself, a walking cartoon
but inside was like a horror movie
the world tells her not to love herself so she ignores her beauty
she stops looking in the mirror she losing herself
she don’t even wanna find it embarr-ssed at best
n0body told her that her heart is a carriage, a chest
for invaluable jewels that will propel over flesh

[hook]

[verse 2: j prophet]
as time p-ssed, she harbored the hatred
what made matters worse is that people started dating
they started ranking their worth according to looks
and dark skin took her off the books, invisible
straight rejected by everybody near
all she could hear were the snickers and the sneers
she saw her features as a sickness that impaired
steady feeling like a victim of the thickness of her hair
no movies on a sat-rday night
no skating on the ice, holding hands under lights
no prom cuz she got no invite
no roses on the 14th or heart-shaped delights
so it should be no secret that she felt distressed
dealing with these pests
everyday’s a test
cuz the body that you’re in
don’t figure into their plan
but in his love you can rest
his arms are a nest

[hook]

[verse 3: j prophet]
so baby girl when you get here
don’t listen what they say about ya
remember you’re a vessel, god’s light will spray up out ya
it breaks my heart what they say to you
just promise me that you’ll never say it too
love your skin and your body
god made you strong
you’re a cross between your daddy and your mommy
you belong to love
you were created by the architect of stars
the progenitor of life so live for a cause
live for christ
live for peace
live for those who are considered the least
and when you look up in the mirror
please smile
only get you’re a while
you are god’s child
where they say you don’t fit, make a sp-ce there
where them people in the pits, take his grace there
when they try to strike you down, make you suffocate and drown
stand firm when you tell em we don’t break here
