Africans in America try to identify Totally with their master in every respect They are the only ones who can not do it But they are the ones who will go to all extremes to do itCheck it out They can not be disguised But they will attempt to disguise themselvesI'm on a search, not for a car or a miniskirt But the words I wish to exert Will hurt, damage or upset the ego You wanna be macho, yeah, but we know the dealJheri curls just ain't gettin' it KRS-One is only down for pickin' it Pick the afro, need no Soul Glo Or Carefree Curls, that's just a no noWhere oh where, are all the real men The feminine look seems to be the trend You got eyeliner on, chillin' and maxin' See you're a man with a spine extractionSo what I'm askin' is plain to see Are there any straight singers in R&B? All I see, is the light-skinned buffy Tryin' hard, to be Mr. Tuffy Yet in fact, you're Mr. Softie With the beige contacts on, yo you lost meI ain't with it, never will, never have How can your son even call you dad? Your skin is bleached and your nails you just buffin' Take a look at yourself man, ya strugglin'Africa is so strong, that once she puts a stamp on you Four hundred years of cold weather, death And all that fryin' your hair shall not disguise you As a matter of fact, she is so strong That no matter what chemicals you put in your hair She will come back and snatch it upTell me are you proud, man, of who you are? Or does your pride come out of a jar 'Cause if you bought it, put it on or sprayed it on I tell you right now, it won't stay long'Cause if it ain't natural, it ain't kosher It's like buyin' and wearin' a culture If that culture ain't yours naturally It's his, not yours, actuallyYou better wake up and smell the coffee Look in the mirror and think Mr. Softie People change, when they are ashamed Of how they look or from which they cameAre you ashamed of original black? If you're not, why does your hair look like that? Why is your nose straighter, from surgery? I think you're really in a state of emergencyYou're not sane to the African aim So you're insane and you need to obtain Any average rap album sculpture And study it just to learn your cultureEven though, you don't think it's music It's the blackest you'll ever get so use it The blue-eyed black man to me is buggin' Take a look at yourself man, ya strugglin'Yes, capitalism will confuse these people Have them totally confused They will try every way to identify With their masters, every way Go to extreme lengths, I'm telling you, seriouslyCapitalism will confuse them, y'know tell them the truth's a lie I saw a sister the other day and I spoke to her about her hair She said, "I don't care what you say, I'm still gonna get my perm" I told her, "It's not a perm, it's a temporary" Try in every possible way to identify
