Forest Whitiker Lyrics
And, yo, whatever comes up comes out.
We don't put our hands over our mouth.
And whatever comes up comes out.
We don't put our hands over our mouth.
Whatever comes up comes out.
Please mister bass-man lay it on me.
Hey, yo, dependin’ on the day, and dependin’ on what I ate,
I'm anywhere from 20 to 35 pounds overweight.
I got red eyes, and one of ‘em’s lazy,
and they both squint when the sun shines so I look crazy.
I'm albino man, I know I'm pink and pale,
And I'm hairy as hell, everywhere but fingernails.
I shave a cranium that ain't quite shaped right.
Face type: shiny. I stay up and write late nights.
My wardrobe is jeans and faded shirts,
A mixture of what I like, and what I wear to work.
I'm not mean and got a neck full of razor bumps.
I'm not the classic profile of what the ladies want.
You might think I'm depressed as can be,
But when I look in the mirror I see sexy-ass me.
And if that's somethin’ that you can’t respect then that's peace.
My life's better without you actually.
To everyone out there, who's a little different,
I say, “damn a magazine, these is God’s fingerprints.
You can call me ugly but can’t take nothin’ from me.
I am what I am, doctor, you ain't gotta love me.”
If you would please turn in your bible
To beauty tips according to Forest Whitaker.
In the third chapter of the third line.
Brother Ali would you please read to the choir for me son?
I'ma be all right, you ain't gotta be my friend tonight (you ain't gotta love me).
An’ I'ma be okay, you would probably bore me anyway (you ain't gotta love me).
I'ma be all right, you ain't gotta be my friend tonight (you ain't gotta love me).
An’ I'ma be okay, you would probably bore me anyway (you ain't gotta love me).
I'ma be all right, you ain't gotta be my friend tonight (you ain't gotta love me).
An’ I'ma be okay, you would probably bore me anyway (you ain't gotta love me).

fucking awesome song. great beat and a great message. everybody is different and you need to accept who you are and not try to change on the outside because what really matters is what is on the inside - basically what the whole song is about. be you.
^^ true ^^
"you may think im depressed as can be but when i look in the mirror i see sexy ass me"
haha :)
I love this song. It's so damn uplifting and also funny :D
where can i get the lyrics from the truth is???
^on the booklet of the album. amazing booklet by the way, there are comments for each song and a dvd
positive message. I still don't have to be attracted to uglies but I can at least get to know them.
what's the significance of Forest Whitaker to the album's theme?
Hey man, I can only assume that the title "Forest Whitaker" is a reference to his appearance. That is, Forest has a lazy eye and is rather large in stature. When I first heard the song, I actually thought Ali was speaking about Forest.
Great song and great message!
Great song. Everyone is beautiful for and there is no need to change in order to appeal to others. If they don't accept you for you than forget them... They aren't worth stressing over.
I wonder if Forest Whitaker has heard this song.
