LYRIC NARRATIVE 
Chris Brown – Beautiful 
People 
I think this song is all about 
seeing the beauty of others 
instead of their flaws or race 
or sexuality. It’s also about 
accepting others.
Everywhere, everywhere 
Everywhere I go 
Everywhere that I've been 
The only thing I see is 
Is beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Oh Whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Beautiful 
Don't you know 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Beautiful 
Don't you know know know 
Live your life live your life 
Let the love inside 
It's your life, it's your life 
Your beauty's deep inside 
Inside you. 
Don't let 'em bring you down, no! 
The beauty is inside of you 
Don't let 'em bring you down, no 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
You're beautiful don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh Whoa... 
Beautiful don't you know? 
Take your time, take your time, 
Take your sexy time. 
Don't lose your head, lose your head 
Your beauty's deep inside. 
Inside you. 
Don't let 'em bring you down, no! 
Your beauty is inside of you 
Don't let 'em bring you down, no! 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh Whoa... 
You're beautiful 
Don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Beautiful 
Don't you know? 
Beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Live your life, live your life, 
Let the love inside 
It's your life, it's your life 
Got to play it right 
Beautiful people
Everywhere, 
everywhere 
Everywhere I go 
Everywhere that I've 
been 
The only thing I see 
is 
Is beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Beautiful people 
Everywhere in the 
there is beautiful 
people. Repetition 
assures audience 
that they are 
beautiful no matter 
what their race is. 
Oh Whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you 
know? 
Oh whoa... 
Beautiful 
Don't you know 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you 
know? 
Oh whoa... 
Beautiful 
Don't you know know know 
‘Oh Whoa’ builds up the 
tempo of the song, which in 
turn livens up the beat. 
Asking rhetorical questions 
to the audience, meaning 
the audience already knows 
the answer. They are 
beautiful. people if they 
know they’re beautiful. The 
repetition of the word 
‘beautiful’ reminds the 
audience that they are 
Live your life live your life beautiful. 
Let the love inside 
It's your life, it's your life 
Your beauty's deep inside 
Inside you. 
Don't let 'em bring you down, 
no! 
The beauty is inside of you 
Don't let 'em bring you down, no 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
You're beautiful don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't you know? 
Oh Whoa... 
Beautiful don't you know? 
Telling people not to 
let others bring them 
down. Don't listen to 
what others 
say,/what the haters 
say; you are 
beautiful. No matter 
what sexuality. 
Take your time, take 
your time, 
Take your sexy time. 
Don't lose your head, 
lose your head 
Your beauty's deep 
inside. 
Inside you. 
Don't let 'em bring you 
down, no! 
Your beauty is inside of 
you 
Don't let 'em bring you 
down, no! 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't 
you know? 
Oh Whoa... 
You're beautiful 
Don't you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Don't you know, don't 
you know? 
Oh whoa... 
Beautiful 
Don't you know? 
Beautiful 
people 
Beautiful 
people 
Beautiful 
people 
Beautiful 
people 
Live your life, 
live your life, 
Let the love 
inside 
It's your life, 
it's your life 
Got to play it 
right 
Beautiful 
people 
By saying ‘don’t 
lose your head’ the 
lyric simply tells the 
audience not to 
lose self-control, 
fall to pieces; panic. 
But to merely be 
happy and stay 
calm because they 
are beautiful inside. 
‘you’re beautiful’ 
makes a statement 
that doesn’t allow 
the audience to 
argue back. His 
opinion is the only 
one that matters. 
He thinks everyone 
is beautiful. 
The 
repetition 
‘beautiful 
people’ 
pleasing the 
senses or 
mind 
aesthetically 
Telling the 
audience to 
live their 
lives and 
disregard 
what 
others say. 
‘You got to play 
it right’ 
expressing to the 
audience that life 
is too short and 
they have to live 
it up to the 
fullest while they 
can and not let 
people bring 
them down. 
Ignorance is 
bliss. 
‘Every where everywhere I go the only thing I see is beautiful people’ 
Regardless of there being war around the world it doesn’t matter because the people are the only 
thing that matter.
