Man you ainand't gotta
Worry and'bout a thing
and'bout your daughter
Nah she ainand't my type
(but supposinand' she said she loved me)
Are you afraid of the mix of black and white
Weand're livinand' in a land where
The law say the mixing of race
Makes the blood impure
Sheand's a woman iand'm a man
But by the look on your face
See ya canand't stand it
Man calm your ass down donand't get mad
I donand't your sistah
(but supposinand' she said she loved me)
Would you still love her
Or would you dismiss her
What is pure? who is pure?
Is it european state of being, iand'm not sure
If the whole world was to come
Thru peace and love
Then what would we made of?
Excuse us for the news
You might not be amused
But did you know white comes from black
No need to be confused
Excuse us for the news
I question those accused
Why is this fear of black from white
Influence who you choose?
Man cand'mon now, i donand't want your wife
Stop screaminand' itand's not the end of your life
(but supposinand' she said she loved me)
Whatand's wrong with some color in your family tree
I donand't know
Iand'm just a rhyme sayer
Skins protected and'gainst the ozone layers
Breakdown 2001
Might be best to be black
Or just brown countdown
Iand've been wonderinand' why
People livinand' in fear
Of my shade
(or my hi top fade)
Iand'm not the one thatand's runninand'
But they got me one the run
Treat me like i have a gun
All i got is genes and chromosomes
Consider me black to the bone
All i want is peace and love
On this planet
(ainand't that how god planned it?)
Excuse us for the news
You might not be amused
But did you know white comes from black
No need to be confused
Excuse us for the news
I question those accused
Why is this fear of black from white
Influence who you choose?
