Complexion Lyrics by Common Dominant

The Inevitable Dream

2016

[Verse 1: AnR]
Your complexion is complex
Like a blueprint to your face
But let’s face the fact God has yet to mess up
What his hands touch
Never puts down His brush
And Even with a spitting Russian not a minute he rushed
Now I wish I could take, that same kind of time
And spit something simple cause self esteem is on the line
And I'm saying simple, cause this you need to understand
But how many expectations did you place upon yourself
Like you needed more doubt
Like you needed less love
You have people for that role, why you getting in line
Positive they're your friends?
Notice the shape of your mouth changes when they look away
Don’t want to stand out if you’ll be standing alone
Like reds the new black so you start cutting your arm
And you Wanna fit in so you laugh at every joke
Even when they say nock nock, and it’s you at the door

[Hook: DnA]
Cause what makes em, is what makes you
It's what hates you, it's what takes you
Searching for acceptance, never accepts you
Expects you to be perfect, expectant never accepting
But being human is beautiful, being human is love
Screw your complexion, it'll never mean a thing
It's you, and you're human, and being you is beautiful
Being you is beautiful

[Verse 2: DnA]
Screw your complexion, it'll never mean a thing
I see a world where beauty has always been a dream
Always being chased but by no one ever caught
You're caught into the mix of every enslaving thought
But screw your complexion, it'll never mean a thing
It'll never make you thin, never make you fat
It'll never make you ugly, your complexion never made you
What made you, is you, and it hates you
It's not the outside looking in, or the inside looking out
It’s you in the center and you're looking around
Looking around, at the complexions
Hair extensions mention you can be better
But human views are gloomy with room for improvement
They roomy, they move me, they just moved out so
Be sure your leisure never takes another person's
Features as what makes em

[Hook: DnA]
Cause what makes em, is what makes you
It's what hates you, it's what takes you
Searching for acceptance, never accepts you
Expects you to be perfect, expectant never accepting
But being human is beautiful, being human is love
Screw your complexion, it'll never mean a thing
It's you, and you're human, and being you is beautiful
Being you is beautiful
