lyrics
I've seen the face of fate, eyes of evil, heart of hate/its a heavy load to bare, but I'm strong enough, ill take the weight/ my generations genocidal, part of a self hated breed/everywhere you look, its magazines telling us how to be/ the lighter you are, determines how straight your hair should be/ or your better off then other, man that shit is news to me/ darker the berry sweeter the juice, but yall call it krusty?/ who made that up,my wife divine and dark, or is it just me/ so now a cultures at war with itself, over the tone of skin/ light or dark, brown or not, is this the kinda world we in?/we killin ourself off at alarming rates over confrontation/ now we at each others throats over our fucking pigmentation?/ this shit unreal, amazing that were so ignorant/ I tried to play it kool at first, said I wouldn't get into it/ I don't care if its a diffenet tone in every other face/ you do realize no matter your shade, your a NIGGER to another race/ they don't see us as carmel, dark chocolate or mocha sweetie/ regardless of how you view yourself, your a nigger easy/all this segregation set up failure pretty good/ you aint even gota take my for it on this one, look around your hood/ you don't see um takin over china town or Williamsburg/ little italy in tact, believe what u see, not what you heard/ all this bullshit has cause a fuckin rift between us/ as a people wonder why we can't keep shit between us/ we livin destructive lives, now look where we left ourselves/aint nobody gonna help us, we aint tryna help ourselves/
