a little something different since it's been out for 5 years

lyrics

Verse:
Little girl five years old
She’s already been told
That what she’s got ain’t good enough
A princess always wears a crown
Over long hair flowing down
Never over braids or Afro puffs

Well I was that little girl
Learning hatred for my curls
And I tried to burn ‘em straight
Til a new reality
Broke through and settled over me
That God Herself in love had made

Chorus:
Black girl magic
Black girl magic
I got
Black girl magic
In my hair in my skin
In my veins in my hips
In my soul don’t you know
That I got
Black girl magic
Black girl magic

Verse:
Hello world, you’ve had a lot to say
About who I am and it hasn’t been easy
Despite the ways you’ve tried to deny this
Imma tell you that my Black life matters
And what I got you can’t take it from me
Cuz God above in love yeah She gave it to me

Chorus:
Black girl magic
Black girl magic
I got
Black girl magic
In my hair in my skin
In my veins in my hips
In my soul don’t you know
That I got
Black girl magic
Black girl magic

Bridge:
So if you’re thin or thick
Or poor or rich
Or they call you a bitch
I’m talking to y’all
If you’re loud or shy
Whether you read or write
If you’re dark or light
I’m talking to y’all
If you’re young or old
Or meek or bold
Do the telling or get told
I’m talking to y’all
If you’re on tiptoe
Or dropping it low
Or got not rhythm to show
I’m talking to ya’ll
Cuz we got

Chorus
Black girl magic
Black girl magic
We got
Black girl magic
In our hair in our skin
In our veins in our hips
In our souls so let ‘em know
That we got
Black girl magic
Black girl magic

Outro
If you're thin or thick or poor or rich they call you a bitch
From your crown down to the ground, sis, you know you're the shit
Doesn't matter what the world may say, don't ever forget
Who you are and where you come from and the magic within
If you're thin or thick or poor or rich they call you a bitch
From your crown down to the ground, sis, you know you're the shit
Doesn't matter what the world may say, don't ever forget
Who you are and where you come from and the magic within
