I don’t knO where I should begin – when Describing perfect brown skin I knO where you’re from – What I can’t sea iz How you got to be so near to me- Red bone undertones rising like rivers To the surface Reflecting inner being like mirrors Are their purpose Perfect brown skin is simply Reflecting your within Your beautiful brown skin How bad is this adage that says-? Beauty is only skin deep Can you tell me –? How deep is your skin –? Initially absorbed now I’m falling within The perfect prism Separating, then re-blending The colors of your rhythm Alabama soil and Georgia red clay Lay in your skin tones Digging deeper I sea the clarity of the Caribbean Still deeper I see Afrikan hills, cliffs and plateaus [Perfect brown skin embraces your soul] Showing what makes blackness the nicest Flawless like diamonds too perfect for pricesHave you ever tasted chocolate? I did when I kissed you You haven’t even left, but yet I miss you Your skin runs as deep as black history is embedded in the soil of America Reaching from the strands of your DNA Manifesting on the surface of your reality Becoming one with your mind, body and soul Creating who you are Yes it reaches that far When I think of you What comes to mind is Chocolate tinted sunshine Still full of fire and A treat for my eyes Your skin glows as bright as onyx And the richness of your complexion Satisfies my appetite more than a meal fit for a king Do you have a napkin? I have never seen a people, a woman, So dark-and so mysterious Dark skin that glows and carries a fire with a level of sincerity And security approaching purity Lighting my way to my destination Thanks to you, I feel safe When I see you, I see me Skin as dark as mine, scarred from the harshness of hate Abused by anger and violence Misunderstood from not being known, because of misunderstanding Confused from a lack of purpose, not knowing its fate But yet, so strong in the midst of opposition Elevating to its proper position Expressing itself through arts, To communicate an experience that cannot be known un-less lived Your dark skin is the strength of a culture The blanket of a people Nothing is as beautiful, you come is some many color’s and shades Because of you, I pursue-loveDiscography The Opening Act is currently available on www.cdbaby.com/kaijee Picture Me Perfect is available on www.cdbaby.com/kaijee2
