We will always be racing In black and White Jungle fever spreads like disease But racism we cannot fight Oreos and Wiggers They're all just name brands A bad way of integration But no one's got bigger plans Its all come down to this The stereotypes are real But because slavery was so hard Colored wounds cannot heal The KKK took something away And rose up fear in out hearts But all that’s left of those captured souls are burnt up colored parts The wall of color built higher then ever Our suffering only fractions of reality But our differences hating us And we can't fit into the other's formality Hot combs in our nappy hair Our roots straitening out But people with color blind eyes Is a dream I highly doubt |
