[Verse 1] Dark gray concrete stained burgundy Yellow tape across the empty space Black words i see Round here Niggas move cautiously Jean pockets full of dirt, green never sprouting b Black and Brown bodies painted orange like its halloween Prison yard graffitti, faces colored be disparity... Asking mommy why bandaids aint in my color And why natural always looking like the other White type, flesh tone tan or that off cream The only time we fucking wit the dark is in a coffin Or when a movie roll call for a dope fiend Streets ever colder cola how we caught up in them coke schemes Women models blonde haired with reverse tans Dying too be lighter inside like an open hand Guess them europeans had themselves a different plan Could of swore cocoa was the color of the first man And now he clear as water too society Cant even get clear water, basic social needs So im here breaking down what the culture needs Whether Garifuna or a dark skinned Philippine Whether you Nigerian, Morroccan, or a lighter team We all from the Garden of Eden so fuck the color schemes And i aint saying dat we all the same at heart But it was only two people on the deck of Noahs ark Shit [Hook] Repeat Said, never fall victim to the color schemes Find comfort knowing everything aint what it seems... [Verse 2] Please peep the positioning Plain colored palette steady painting our conditioning Cuz Black is only wanted when we talking oil Or when you need a famished youngin too collect your spoils I swear we dye die minds for these diamonds Cuz Black been the face of poverty for some time son And why every fucking savior coated all white Like Black mean you evil, well my life don shown me different sights Its only natural to darken when you in the sun And since we started Earth it make sense that we the darkest ones They try to kill us wit our color using Black codes Then they shoved white into our pockets for them crack codes.... Thats the yin and yang of society Swirling energies dedicated to expire me Stuck up in environments where aint nobody hiring Capitol aint matching up so we resort to firing.... Bodies dropping like stock so we exchange souls Slavery around my neck but its painted gold See if you don lived your whole life without clothes It only make sense to take a life just too get robes
