🎵 Music Lovers of Hive Open Mic community! 🎙

Ksam is here again 😎 and this is the 105 week of our ever-bubbling Music event on Hive Platform, Hive Open Mic. And for this week our theme is: "Colourful."

This colourful theme was selected by no one else but @mipiano.

When you interact with her you cannot but feel the colourful radiation of wisdom; wisdom in life and Musical wisdom.

Indeed she is a musician per excellence; 🙌 she seeks to radiate and pass across wonderful message to her listeners and she seeks to touch the souls of her listeners with her music.

Without any iota of doubt, if you listen to her music your soul will surely be touched. If it isn't touched, just come I'll touch it for you 😅😅

When I saw this theme, I knew the perfect song for it 😎 The 2021 Grammy Award winning music by Beyoncé ft Wizkid and Blue Ivy: BROWN SKIN GIRL

This is a song by Beyoncé calling on Black and Brown Skin women, ladies and girls to appreciate their colour. It encourages them to see the beauty that lies beneath this wonderful colour 🥰

🖤🤎BROWN SKIN GIRL 🤎🖤

LYRICS

Brown skin girl
Your skin just like pearls
The best thing in the world
Never trade you for anybody else
Singin' brown skin girl
Your skin just like pearls
The best thing in the world
I never trade you for anybody else, singin'

She said she really grew up poor like me
Don't believe in nothin' but the Almighty
Just a likkle jeans and a pure white tee
She never did forever be nobody wifey, yeah
So while I may not pretty boy, your heart is amiss
Play it like a villain 'cause she caught in a wave
Tonight I am walkin' away
9 to 5 mind, on the grind, yeah, yeah

Tonight I might fall in love, dependin' on how you hold me
I'm glad that I'm calmin' down, can't let no one come control me
Keep dancin' and call it love, she fightin' but fallin' slowly
If ever you are in doubt, remember what mama told me

Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
Your back against the world
I never trade you for anybody else, say
Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
The best thing inna di world
I never trade you for anybody else, say

Pose like a trophy when Naomis walk in
She need an Oscar for that pretty dark skin
Pretty like Lupita when the cameras close in
Drip broke the levee when my Kellys roll in
I think tonight she might braid her braids
Melanin too dark to throw her shade
She minds her business and wines her waist
Gold like 24k, okay

Tonight I might fall in love, dependin' on how you hold me
I'm glad that I'm calmin' down, can't let no one come control me
Keep dancin' and call it love, she fightin' but fallin' slowly
If ever you are in doubt, remember what mama told me

Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
Your back against the world
I never trade you for anybody else, say
Brown skin girl, ya skin just like pearls
The best thing inna di (about the) world
I never trade you for anybody else, say

Oh, have you looked in the mirror lately? (lately)
Wish you could trade eyes with me ('cause)
There's complexities in complexion
But your skin, it glow like diamonds
Dig me like the earth, you be giving birth
Took everything in life, baby, know your worth
I love everything about you, from your nappy curls
To every single curve, your body natural
Same skin that was broken be the same skin takin' over
Most things out of focus, view
But when you're in the room, they notice you (notice you)
'Cause you're beautiful
Yeah, you're beautiful

The men dem gon' fall in love
With you and all of your glory
Your skin is not only dark, it shines and it tells your story
Keep dancin', they can't control you
They watchin', they all adore you
If ever you are in doubt, remember what mama told you

Brown skin girl (brown skin girl)
Ya skin just like pearls (brown skin girl)
Your back against the world (oh)
I never trade you for anybody else, say (no, no)
Brown skin girl (brown skin girl)
Ya skin just like pearls (brown skin)
The best thing in all the world
I never trade you for anybody else, say

Brown skin girl
Your skin just like pearls
The best thing in the world
I never trade you for anybody else, singin'
