Beauty

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Are you down?
I'd be lucky just to hear your heart beat now
Can't love now (Heartbeat now)
Ever since I've met you I feel complete now
Yes I can, "But no you can't"
I take a bullet straight to the heart
I'll be your light 'cause you're still trapped in the dark
I'll be your flint if you're still down for the spark
I'd be lucky just to hear your heart beat now
Ever since I've met you I feel complete now
I'd be lucky just to hear your heart beat n-n-n-now
Ever since I've m-m-m-met you I feel complete now
Ever since your heartbeat
Ever since your heartbeat
Ever since everything
I'll tell you where I'll be
All natural everything
Underneath the small tree
Don't know when I'll be back
Maybe you should call me
You pressed me on and on for my honesty
Stabbed me in the back, you did it easily
Ever since you've left I'm sleeping peacefully
Forgot about everything you promised me
Are you down?
I'd be lucky just to hear your heart beat now
Can't love now (Heartbeat now)
Ever since I've met you I feel complete now
Yes I can, "But no you can't"
I take a bullet straight to the heart
I'll be your light 'cause you're still trapped in the dark
I'll be your flint if you're still down for the spark
I'd be lucky just to hear your heart beat now
Ever since I've met you I feel complete now




I'd be lucky just to hear your heart beat now
Ever since I've met you I feel complete now

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Wale's song "Beauty" evoke a sense of longing and vulnerability, as the singer expresses a deep desire to connect with someone on a profound level. The repeated question "Are you down?" suggests a yearning for emotional closeness and a willingness to take risks for love. The line "I'd be lucky just to hear your heartbeat now" conveys the sentiment that simply being in the presence of the person they care about would bring them joy and fulfillment.


The conflicting emotions of love and doubt are highlighted in the lines "Can't love now" and "Yes I can, 'But no you can't'". This inner struggle reflects the complexities of relationships and the uncertainties that can arise when opening up to someone. The metaphor of taking a bullet straight to the heart signifies a willingness to endure pain or sacrifice for the sake of love, emphasizing the depth of the singer's feelings.


The imagery of being a guiding light for someone trapped in darkness and providing the spark for them to ignite speaks to the singer's desire to support and uplift their partner. The repeated lines emphasizing the feeling of completeness and the significance of hearing the other person's heartbeat underscore the profound impact that this relationship has had on the singer's life.


As the lyrics progress, there is a shift towards reflection and a sense of closure. The references to being pressed for honesty, feeling betrayed, and ultimately finding peace after the person has left convey a journey of emotional upheaval and acceptance. The final repetition of longing to hear the other person's heartbeat and feeling complete in their presence encapsulates the enduring impact of this connection and the lasting impression it has left on the singer.

[Intro]
A thousand pieces in a jigsaw of beautiful mistakes
The debris of beauty flickers
In the sadness of a smile
It’s the perfection of your imperfection

[Verse 1: Fabolous]
Beauty's when you just got out the shower
Hair still dripping, wrapped up in a towel
Beauty's when you ready in a hour
Them long legs, I call 'em the Twin Towers
You put that arch in it, put your hand on your hip
Put your hair in a bun, and you handle the shit
Beauty’s when the strut compliments sass
You know ya booty look good with ya confident ass (shit)
Straight up, but the rest swerve
You know it's beauty when the smile is her best curve
That's real beauty, no makeup shit
The girl you dream about, and wanna wake up with
Wait until I'm looking then you throw it at me
Go down on me, then you look up at me
Awhh man, that shit right there
Probably give your ex nightmares

[Interlude: Wale]
Miss Brooklyn New York
I'll give you whatever to get to your heart
Know your worth baby girl, love
This Soul Tape shit
Never make shift, all naturale
Put it down
Young Ralph, let's get it

[Verse 2: Wale]
Beauty is knowing nobody's real as you
Truly condolences for that pairs of shoes
Killing the scene, this type of love will make you complete
Now roll the weed and get the munchies, she be the cuisine
When Im her jeans I'm still in tune with the inner being
Her inner thoughts, her worst fears she give to me
Beauty is loyalty to the fullest
'Cause cupid made me a target for she had received a bullet
For she I get super deep, maybe speed up
Before I pull out and sex is a weapon
But beauty don’t need a bullet
Beauty is the beauty that her mother gave her
May you be guarded by God, me and grandmamas angels
It's God given, never complicated
A lot of niggas talking, I don’t have the heart to say it
The heart to tell you they see potential in how you do it
I pray you know your worth
When niggas don't notice your beauty, truly

[Outro: Fabolous]
You see, beauty isn't a rush
It's a process, sometimes it's slow
Yeah, I mean there's beauty in everything, ya know
You just gotta recognize it
Shoutout to the people who do
And I feel sorry for the people who don't
Soul Tape 2
