Embracing Individuality: Forest Whitaker's Message of Self-Love
Lyrics
And yo whatever comes up comes out
Embracing openness and honesty in expression
We don't put our hands over our mouth
Not suppressing or hiding one's thoughts or feelings
And whatever comes up comes out
Continuing the theme of openness and self-expression
We don't put our hands over our mouth
Reiterating the importance of not censoring oneself
Whatever comes up comes out
Stressing the value of genuine self-expression
Please mister bass-man lay it on me
Requesting the bass player to intensify the music
I like that
Expressing satisfaction with the music
One more time, give it to me
Asking for the music to be played again
This real shit right here
Acknowledging the authenticity of the content
I'm beautiful
Asserting self-confidence and self-love
Ayo, dependin' on the day, and dependin' on what I ate
Varying physical condition based on factors like diet
I'm anywhere from twenty to thirty-five pounds overweight
Humorous reflection on body weight fluctuation
I got red eyes and one of them's lazy
Describing physical features, including lazy eyes
And they both squint when the sun shines so I look crazy
Comic portrayal of appearance under sunlight
I'm albino, man, I know I'm pink and pale
Acknowledging albinism and skin color
And I'm hairy as hell, everywhere but fingernails
Humorous remark about body hair distribution
I shave a cranium that ain't quite shaped right
Referencing an oddly shaped cranium
Face type, shiny, I stay up and write late nights
Describing writing habits and facial features
My wardrobe is jeans and faded shirts
Detailing casual wardrobe choices
A mixture of what I like and what I wear to work
Mixing personal preference with work attire
I'm not mean and got a neck full of razor bumps
Addressing skin condition without self-consciousness
I'm not the classic profile of what the ladies want
Not fitting stereotypical attractiveness
You might think I'm depressed as can be
Contrasting external perception with self-perception
But when I look in the mirror I see sexy-ass me
Expressing confidence and self-admiration
And if that's somethin that you can't respect then that's peace
Accepting oneself and being content without validation
My life's better without you, actually
Asserting independence and improved life without negativity
To everyone out there, who's a little different
Empathy for those who feel different or unique
I say damn a magazine, these is God's fingerprints
Rejecting societal standards of beauty
You can call me ugly but can't take nothing from me
Claiming self-worth despite external judgments
I am what I am, doctor, you ain't gotta love me
Embracing individuality and self-acceptance
If you would please turn in your Bible
Introducing a biblical reference to beauty advice
To beauty tips according to Forest Whitaker
Referring to beauty tips in the context of Forest Whitaker
In the third chapter of the third line
Specifically locating the advice in the Bible
Brother Ali, would you please read to the choir for me, son
Asking Brother Ali to share wisdom with the choir
I'ma be all right
Repeating the sentiment of self-assurance and independence
You ain't gotta be my friend tonight (you ain't gotta love me)
-And I'ma be okay
-You would probably bore me anyway (you ain't gotta love me)
-I'ma be all right
-You ain't gotta be my friend tonight (you ain't gotta love me)
-And I'ma be okay
-You would probably bore me anyway (you ain't gotta love me)
-And I'ma be all right
Continuing the theme of self-reliance and indifference
You ain't gotta be my friend tonight (you ain't gotta love me)
-And I'ma be okay
-You would probably bore me anyway (you ain't gotta love me)
-Forest Whitiker y'all
Repeating the name "Forest Whitiker" as a symbol
Forest Whitiker y'all
-(Goddamn, that boy can sing)
Comments on Forest Whitaker's singing ability
(You must be crazy)
-(He good)
-(You must be crazy)
