Kehlani - Bright Lyrics






[Verse 1:]
Little girl, watching her reflection
As she parts her curls into four sections
She says, "I don't look like them, I don't look like her, and I don't want what's on my head"
But baby girl don't be mislead
Yeah, yeah
Young woman reading magazines
Thinking to herself, nobody looks like me
Oh I've got all these curves, all this nerve
Why can't I keep a man?
But baby girl if you love yourself you can

[Chorus 1:]
Can't nobody love somebody that do not love themselves
You are what you choose to be
It's not up to no one else
So be great, be kind
Don't let them dim your light
A woman like a sun should always stay bright, no

[Verse 2:]
Little boy sitting in the bleachers
Staring at, at his dirty sneakers
Thinking my shoes don't shine
Money is tight, I would never get a date
But baby boy that's not what it takes
Young man, always at the center
Finding ways to make his arms look bigger
Saying, "You see those guys? They get all the girls, I just want to be like them"
But baby boy, you're spreading yourself thin

[Chorus 2:]
Cause can't nobody love somebody that do not love themselves
You are what you choose to be
It's not up to no one else
So be great, be kind
Don't let them dim your light
Cause a man like the sun should always stay bright

[Outro:]
Yes you are like the sun so always stay bright

    Yo I just came home from school. I realized my “friends” don’t even support me. They always judge me. They judge my interests. When I say I like a certain thing they say my opinion “sucks” or I have “bad taste”. Fuck em, I know they’re just jealous. Gotta progress in life and love myself. Thanks Kehlani😊🙏

    Wow this song hit me so hard evoked some deep emotions in me made me cry made me smile made me hope. Growing up in a predominantly white area I knew I was different. But I had a problem I didn’t fit in with the whites and I didn’t fit in with the small number of blacks we did have in the area. Did I leave my curly hair or straighten it, and when I went to school I noticed how all of my friends were white and I spent so much time trying to be just like them and they were lovely girls but I started to realise that I was rejecting half of my identity my Jamaican heritage just to fit in. Wow this song just made me sit and think deeply. Nowadays the area I live in is more diverse and I’m pleased to say I have friends from all walks of life and am closer to my family proud of my heritage and who I am. But it is hard growing up magazines barbie dolls even reality tv today is girls with long straight hair lighter skin and “perfect” lips and figures. Sending positive vibes and love to everyone life’s too short be happy ❤️
