Body Talk
The Ambassador Lyrics

Don't forget that the body talks
People often communicate through their body language

You've got to watch what you say with your body parts
Be careful about the signals you send with your body language

We're in a day where they display the body art
In modern times, people often showcase tattoos and piercings on their bodies

But don't forget about the blaze that the body sparks (the body talks)
Despite the significance of body art, people should also be aware of the powerful messaging their bodies can convey

Now I'm about to build a case like a lawyer
The artist is presenting his argument like a legal case

I need grace cause I'm a face heat like a broiler
The artist needs a little forgiveness because he can become quite passionate when arguing his case

But I assure ya, I'm for ya
Despite the intensity of his argument, the artist is ultimately advocating for the listener

Represent the only God who would die and he's not Sawyer
The artist represents God, who died for mankind but was not someone who simply watched from the sidelines

I'll slow it down I'm a walk for ya
The artist is going to take his argument down a notch and make it easier to follow

You've been goin' round lettin' the round parts of the body talk for ya
The artist is criticizing people who rely too much on sexual communication when they could be using other forms of body language

It's a sad state of affair
The prevalence of overly sexualized body language is unfortunate

I'm aware with the rear
The artist acknowledges that the buttocks are a particularly sexualized body part

Some of y'all have gone and made a career
Some people have built a reputation based on their sexuality

Nobody is seeking a hottie that's highly indecent
No one truly respects someone who is overtly sexual

Except when they wanna use the hottie for obvious reasons
However, there are times where people will try to use someone for sex, often due to their outward appearance

Please know you're body be speakin'
It's important to realize that the way you carry yourself sends a powerful message

I'm not talking about the kind of body talk you get from out of Ephesians
The artist is making a biblical reference to distinguish the difference between overt sexuality and the way one's body can speak more generally

I'm talking about the kind you hear on the ave
The artist is describing the kind of body language that is commonly seen on the street

Where starers be at
The artist is singling out those who stare at people

They sit back and "mack" just to stare at your back
Some people will purposely try to initiate flirtatious encounters by staring at the backside of others

I wanna help but it's in the blood stream of the culture
The artist wants to help change this kind of behavior, but understands that it's deeply ingrained in society

And some of you queens are so mean I can't even approach ya
Some women are so intent on conveying a certain image that they can become aggressive towards others

Most women have care in their genes
Generally speaking, women are more empathetic than men

Where's the care you killin' us today the way you're wearing those jeans
The artist is criticizing those who wear overly revealing clothing

A few of us really care for the king
Some people genuinely care about representing Jesus (the king)

We've got to fight when you're in sight
When you see someone dressed inappropriately, you should strive to remain pure in your thoughts and actions

For other men staring's no thing
Other men may feel entitled to stare at women, which is problematic

"Well don't look then"
When someone asks another person to stop staring, their response is often something like this

Well sis, I wasn't lookin'
The artist is acknowledging that he wasn't looking at anyone in particular

But if I've gotta nose can I help smellin' the cookin'
If someone has a natural inclination to notice something arousing, it can be difficult to ignore it

I know you can blame it on the weakness of men
While staring is problematic, the artist acknowledges that men are often tempted by temptation

But the weakness is made weaker when we see your skin
However, revealing clothing can make temptation even stronger

Don't mean to offend but somebody needs to contend for sensitivity
The artist doesn't mean to upset anyone, but he feels that sensitivity is important in these matters

Ok yeah the reason is sin
The underlying issue is that sin leads people to be tempted by sensual desire

I'm not fakin' believe me
The artist is being sincere in his beliefs

You're not makin' it easy
People who dress provocatively are making it difficult for others to resist temptation

And I'm able to see the
The artist is capable of recognizing temptation and distancing himself from it

Plot of Satan for sheezy
The devil is responsible for sowing seeds of lust and temptation

He's got us thinkin' it's easy
Satan wants us to believe that sexual sin is an acceptable behavior

To watch the things on the TV
Sexual content is prevalent in the media

Then control the soul which gets inflamed when it sees these
When people see sexual scenes on TV or in movies, it can lead them to be more tempted by sensual desires

Women who seem to think their body is free
Some women feel that they should be able to dress and act however they want, without any restrictions

Save it for your husband or maybe you're husband to be
The artist believes that dressing inappropriately should be reserved for a person's spouse

You're probably thinking I'm not any fun
The artist acknowledges that some people may not enjoy what he's saying

Consider girl we're in a world where if you're 12 you look 21
Children are often exposed to sexuality at a very young age in today's society

Men teach your sons when he's young
The artist is calling on fathers to teach their sons to respect women from a young age

Or when slimmy comes he'll feed the sweet tooth he has for her "sinny-bun"
If fathers don't teach their sons to respect women, they may grow up to pursue sinful desires

You know the logic- girls flaunt it cause they've got it
The artist is criticizing the idea that women dress provocatively simply because they have attractive bodies

We want a project, yeah we wonder, "Could we knock it?"
Men often see women as sexual conquests, rather than human beings with inherent value

Sorry brothers I'm unpackin' the plan
The artist is apologizing for revealing the ugly truth about male behavior

Sorry mothers we love ya but we learn to mack from a man
The artist is apologizing to mothers for the ways in which society teaches men to behave

Relationships we see are quick- a flash in the pan
Many relationships today are short-lived and based on instant gratification

Marriages that stick are few- like Blacks in Japan
Marriages that last a lifetime are increasingly rare in modern times

Big bottoms have got a lot of men trapped in a trance
Men are often visually stimulated by well-endowed women

Their flesh causing lots of interest like cash in advance
Women who dress provocatively can attract attention from men, like someone who offers cash up front

If that was your plan it worked because you're all that
If a woman's goal was to attract attention from men, dressing provocatively can be an effective way to do so

But all that says to us is that you might be faster than a corvette
However, a woman's beauty and attractiveness won't necessarily lead to a lasting relationship

Listen ladies I implore you to be pure
The artist is pleading with women to be modest and reserved in their behavior

If not read Isaiah 3:16-3:24
The artist is offering a biblical reference in order to support his argument
