Various Artists - What If I Was White lyrics

[Intro] [Eminem] Yo I got an idea Let me go grab Sticky right quick Hey yo Stick, Stick [Sticky] Yo Slim Shady Yo I just had like a nightma- Wait it wasn't like a nightmare It was like a good drea- Well it wasn't a good.. (What was it?) Hey yo I just had a crazy dream man (What?) Yo, yo I dreamt I was white! (Ohhh) [Hook: Eminem] If he was white What if he was white? What if he was white? What - If - He - Was - White? What if he was white? What if he was White, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white? [Verse 1: Sticky Fingaz (Eminem)] What if I was white skin the same color as c**aine? Blond hair, blue eyes, the whole shibang I know one thing: police wouldn't always be watching me Pull me over for nothing, constantly jocking me (Can I get your autograph?) The yellow cabs in the city would stop for me I wouldn't need collateral to buy property If I was white, wouldn't matter if I was rich or poor SECURITY, wouldn't follow me around the store Like I'd steal something (Maybe he might of stole something) Because I'm black I rob and automatically a**ume I ain't got no job On my own land I feel like an immigrant If I was white I wouldn't of thought O.J. was innocent (He did it) If I was white... [Hook] [Verse 2: Sticky Fingaz (Eminem)] If I was white it would be a different world for me

If I was white, hhhmmmmmmmmm? What shade would I be? Would I be Redneck or Skinhead, preppy or high cla**? (YOU'D PROBABLY LIVE IN A TRAILER PARK AND BE WHITE TRASH!) In any case that be the ill sh** right? But there's a good and bad side of being white You can't say the N word without starting a fight (What's up, my n***a?) Couldn't dance to a beat, I'd have two left feet Even if I was white, probably still have a ghetto sh** (How you doing?) Is it a myth or do I really have a little dick? (Nah, it's true!) If I was white, I would probably listen to hard rock And cover my ears whenever I heard Hip Hop [Hook] [Verse 3: Sticky Fingaz (Eminem)] If I was white I'd probably wouldn't even think the same I'd watch Tennis and Golf and bet on Hockey games (Red Wings, man) Wear suit and ties and go to work everyday If I was white I couldn't live around my way And there probably would of never even been an Onyx, sh** I be somewhere sipping Vodka and Tonix Smoking on a Marlboro instead of a Newport I'd live in Long Island instead of New York If I was white, I probably couldn't dunk Cause everybody knows white man can't jump (Nope!) And probably wouldn't be able to go to the weed spot Cause all of the dreads would think I'm a cop [Hook] [Eminem] Yo, what if I was white?
