Aisha Badru - Unrefined Lyrics

They planted a voice inside our heads
Telling us to hate ourselves and love makeup instead
We have learned to stand within the lines
And check off all the boxes for the things we can't define, but

We are fluid, we are free
We are black and white and in between
We are valleys, we are peaks
And we're bursting at the seams, 'cause
We stay hidden deep inside
Ashamed of our own design
Thrown into the assembly line
But we are human

And cannot be refined
We cannot be refined

Silence all the voices in your head
Telling you to be afraid and fit the mold instead
We live in a cage within our minds
And we all twist and turn ourself so we all fit inside, but

We are fluid, we are free
We are black and white and in between
We are valleys, we are peaks
And we're bursting at the seams, 'cause
We stay hidden deep inside
Ashamed of our own design
Thrown into the assembly line
But we are human

And cannot be refined
We cannot be refined

We are fluid, we are free
We are black and white and in between
Thrown into the assembly line
But we are human

And cannot be refined
We cannot be refined
We cannot be refined
We cannot be refined
We cannot be refined
