"This Skin" lyrics

"This Skin"

How delicious to want what I got
To leave behind the chasing of something I'm not
I am the flower of my ancestor's dreams
Stare at the mirror, cuz I like what I see

Pinch it, poke it, smooth and rough
Tea kettle hot
Warm it, cool it, sweat it, move it
Turn up a notch
I'm smiling in this moment
C'mon, everyone watch
I'll tell the whole world, the whole world

I love this skin
This skin that I'm in
I touch myself
It's a holy reunion
I love this skin
Thru thick and thin
I trust myself
Let the healing begin

The swirls upon my fingertips are galaxy like
The ripples of my smile oh they deepen with time
I slowly trace the lines across the palms of my hands
It's in my destiny to finally understand

I love this skin
This skin that I'm in
I touch myself
It's a holy reunion
I love this skin
Thru thick and thin
I trust myself
Let the healing begin

Mind, body, soul, skin
Clarity and confidence
This is a reunion
Mind, body, soul, skin
This is a reunion
Clarity and confidence
This is a reunion
This is a reunion

I love this skin
This skin that I'm in
I touch myself
It's holy reunion
I love this skin
Thru thick and thin
I trust myself
Let the healing begin

Let the healing
Let the healing
Let the healing begin...
