You are so beautiful.
Yeah, you're so beautiful
So beauty (So beauty)
So beauty (So beauty)

And you are so beautiful
But now you are not you
And if you only knew
That the real you, the real you is beautiful baby

You are so beautiful
But now you are not you
And if you only knew
That the real you, the real you is beautiful baby.

You used to be the flyest girl ever
Now you took a step back cause they said it was better
If you walk with them, get your head up out them clouds
You were doing too much, but look at you now.

Winthorpe, trading places for a dollar
Trading thoughts and class for a pass and a holler
Forget school, only make it in your plans
If posting grades and graduations get you likes up on the gram

These days, see I question who I am
Question if I really like my friends, if I really love my fam
Birthday posts doing the most church flow vacay...
Is it really for the fans?

Who am I when I'm by myself
Where are they when I cry myself to sleep
When life gets the best part of me I'm tryna be,
Can't say I love it. It's her that does, that ain't really me.

And you are so beautiful
But now you are not you
And if you only knew
That the real you, the real you is beautiful baby

You are so beautiful
But now you are not you
And if you only knew
That the real you, the real you is beautiful baby.

You used to be your church boy dressed down to the socks
But used to get clowned by homies on the block
Church was a block, couldn't get through to homies or honeys then
So you traded in the word of God for words with friends

It's all pretend, like they ain't really got you
They semi-got the you with the semi and glock that's not you
What's a three letter word for love? It's God, man.
Who love you if they don't? Yeah, your mom can.

These streets don't love you like she do
She sees, knows and loves the real you.

You been lit before they talked up the term.
We've been straight before they slapped us with perm
When will we stop to hold to what we got
Before the Christopher Columbuses see the beauty of us and then affirm.

And you are so beautiful
But now you are not you
And if you only knew
That the real you, the real you is beautiful baby

You are so beautiful
But now you are not you
And if you only knew
That the real you, the real you is beautiful baby.
