Pretty

(앨범: Poe Little Rich Girl - 2004)

Sometimes in my life
I wanna be
Into someone who's gon' be there for me

I met him at the corner store
("Hey")
On 71 and 50 [?] for miracle
He tapped me on my shoulder and [?]
But I was just [?] I couldn't take him home

He told me I was pretty
"I'm so pretty? Boy, you so sweet"
How could I deny a man that's just so nice?
I was pretty
"I'm so pretty? Boy, you so sweet!"
Was just something I needed to hear in my life

Sometimes in my life
I wanna be
Into someone who's gon' be there for me
Could it be that I found
What was here all the while?
He was right in my face
He was from 'round my way

I was surprised when he said he already knew my name
I didn't want him looking in my eyes to see this pain
I walked away, I grabbed my bag and held on tight
But then he pulled me close and said that it's gon' be alright

He told me I was pretty
"I'm so pretty? Boy, you so sweet"
How could I deny a man that's just so nice?
I was pretty
"I'm so pretty? Boy, you so sweet!"
Was just something I needed to hear in my life

But oh! Just so you know!
I won't let him go
'Cause from those three words I swear
That boy touched my soul
He made me feel nice
And at the right time
This world had me down
I felt so ugly inside

But he didn't see me for what I was, but what I could be
I was only in some jeans, sneakers, and hoodie
I ain't even have my wig on, but he love me
Finally I'm going to see what love should be
I took a minute, looked in the mirror, and realized
He wasn't at me for my brown thighs
Or my cup size
I'm real low, I got a rough ride
But he seen something else in my brown eyes
He saw my struggle and he knew that I was sick of pain
Different men with strange names, the same game
It's a hurting thing, y'all know about it
Bad relationships, can't trust nobody
But he sure got it
Mama I think he the one!
He got charm
And I ain't even seen the arm
For a moment, I wasn't in this shitty world
So keep your head up child, you still a pretty girl

You don't have to be alone forever
You ain't gotta be alone, girl
Nah sista, uh uh
'Cause you're beautiful
You don't have to weep and moan, no never
You ain't gotta weep and moan, girl
Nah sista, uh uh
'Cause you're beautiful
You should be happy

Sometimes in my life
I wanna be
Into someone who's gon' be there for me
Could it be that I found
What was here all the while?
He was right in my face
He was from 'round my way

I met him at the corner store
He told me I was pretty
You should be happy
Oh, oh, oh
