Welcome back to AFRESH24 where yours truly, resident DJ AFRESH24 flips fresh perspectives with the breath of music and lyrics on real and raw life topics.

Today I go straight for it-- the essence of being a real Natural Woman.

I drop my own original verse here and also let Aretha Frankin synch us back to our hearts. This isn't just for the ladies, I know a real man loves a real natural woman.... because just like our girl Alicia hit the Key to... 'cause a real man, knows a real woman when he sees her..."

Why do we turn away from our emotions

as if they are cellulite to a bathing suit?

Of course we all want to look cute

But in the meat

between those fine

thin

bikini

lines

Are feelings

Stories

Ideas

&

Thoughts

that we try to cover and mute

Where does your sense of worth truly reside?

In the lyrics of Aretha Franklin

Like a natural woman

Or like a photoshopped magazine

A Madame Taussade model

Waxing over your dimples

When did your face become a surfboard

Gives new meaning to surFACE

What do you really have to hide?

The world will try and sell you the big bright spotlight

Sell you all the creams and magic potions

Trying to disguise the wise emotions

that are your most attractive gifts in natural pure sight

Why do we turn away from our emotions

as if they are cellulite to a bathing suit?

When's the last time a whale bought into all that blubber?

Next time you try and scrub her

rub a dub dub her

Rub a dub dub her

Yes

Lover her

Even if it makes me blind

I just wanna see the natural

light
