🎤 LYRICS
(Intro – respiration, autotune planant)

Melanin baby… shine like nobody,
dark and golden, holy body.
No filter, no fear, you glow steady.

(Verse 1)
Girl you walk like sunset in slow motion,
brown honey skin with ocean notion.
Every curve speak African prayer,
every blink set the night on fire.
They fit compare, but they no reach,
’cause you be lesson no book can teach.
When you laugh, heaven bend its knee,
when you move, angels see melody.

(Pre-Chorus)
Girl you no beg for spotlight,
you be the light.
No filter fit steal your shine,
you born divine.

(Hook 1 – autotune polyphonique)
Melanin baby, sun on your body,
every shade divine, you no copy.
Melanin baby, moon in your eyes,
you be truth where beauty lies.
Melanin baby, don’t hide your fire,
you the reason the world desire.

(Verse 2)
They post plastic dreams online,
but your real vibe redefine.
Your skin sing history’s song,
your tone is root, your soul is strong.
In Kin or Paris, you be queen,
no mirror fit measure that sheen.
Moto na ngai, ozali lumière,
(I call you light, you are air.)
Na zala yo, mon cœur s’éclaire.

(Pre-Chorus 2)
From the braids to the bones, you rare,
every move be answered prayer.
Confidence fit your skin tight,
you be anthem for the night.

(Hook 2 – autotune fort, vocal runs)
Melanin baby, sun on your body,
every shade divine, you no copy.
Melanin baby, stay unbothered,
world try mock, but you uncovered.
Melanin baby, you reign eternal,
black gold mineral, queen internal.

Melanin baby… gold in motion… forever shine.
