Look Good, Feel Good
How To Style An Alien
If I met an alien, I would take them on a spree
I would buy a couple fits and put rare Jordan’s on their feet
I would suggest how to dress, for the cold and for the heat
And I’d teach them how to say, “Ain’t nobody fly as me!”
When I was a new kid, I was different as can be
Big head, funny voice, and always picked on easily
But once I found my love for fashion, I changed, literally
That’s when I learned that feeling good, is the first step to feeling free…
So if I met an alien, I would buy the flyest clothes
I would teach the modern styles and show some glimpses of the old
I would tell them that your shoes can tell a story about your soul
And that the colors that you mix can pick you up when you are low
But, the biggest thing I’d teach, when we’re further down the road
Is something that even the famous supermodels fail to know
It’s not really about the name, or the price of the wardrobe
It’s about loving yourself, from your big head down to your toes…
