about
SKIN is a song that opens up our eyes to the body image and judgments we put on ourselves and others. We should love the skin we are in because it is our own, we have one body in this lifetime and if we learn to love it in the right capacity, we can learn to love others more as well. Thank you for listening and I hope this song continues to reach hearts across the globe. -Prisca
SKIN - an original song by PRISCA as featured in the live gallery opening to SURFACE - an interactive event featuring many talented dancers headed by Gotta Dance Atl

lyrics
intro
oh la la la la la
oh la la la la la
i'm up all night
verse1
The subject is touchy
I wanna feel pretty
but there's beauty queens and magazines,
behind photoshop realities...
prechorus
this is not a test
straight from the muscle behind my chest
i'm in the mirror making fun
my lips are like a loaded gun
chorus
I SHOULD LOVE THE SKIN I'M IN
I SHOULD LOVE THE SKIN I'M IN
I SHOULD LOVE IT, WITHOUT CHANGING A THING
I SHOULD LOVE THE SKIN I'M IN
THE SKIN I'M IN
verse2
just picture an x-ray
of two lovers kissing.
but your head won't seem to understand
that he is with another man
prechorus
this is not a test
straight from the muscle behind my chest
you smile when you're making fun
your lips are like a loaded gun
chorus
bridge
i don't need your beauty standards
to get in my way
we're black and blue from all the words
that we all say
this skin is my skin anyway...
i should love the skin i'm in
i should love the skin i'm in
chorus x2
