[Intro]
Let me take you to the dark side
To the darkest
[Verse 1]
Like Aubrey I'm tryna get one dance
But I got a different view on my chance
In the middle of the floor
Looking round for the dark side
Ain't clear cut as apartheid
Some days so black in my thoughts
If Phrenology was back at the source
Of the knowledge taught
In your Science courses
You'd think that's the route
Of Mister Monk's forces
[Hook]
Dark as my mother
Times hard but I love her
Still tripping off the white girl
Obsessed undercover
Got a lot of sides to me
I'm the realest kind of brother
Try to knock me down
But I ain't no f** up
[Verse 2]
Outside the disco
Not permitted to enter
It couldn't be fiscal
As I'm dressed the freshest
So I look at the clientele
And one question
Comes up
Differences on the spectrum
Of pigmentation
Seems the darker
Side ain't the target
Night in the casket
If a n***a try enter
Bring out the barman
He tell me that there's a look
That they're asking
For
And a look that they don't want
And evidently I'm don't want
And I can line up all year
And still feel cold as the Yukon
Yeah
Man said to me
Us being in the 21st century
Is the reason racism could never be
Well
Damn then guess it's meant to be
Yeah
[Hook]
Dark as my mother
Times hard but I love her
Still tripping off the white girl
Obsessed undercover
Got a lot of sides to me
I'm the realest kind of brother
Try to knock me down
But I ain't no f** up
[Interlude]
Getting back to the basics
Constructing fan bases
Walk a mile in my Asics
You'd be crazy too
You can't fade it
Getting back to the basics
Constructing fan bases
Walk a mile in my Asics
You'd be crazy too
You can't fade it
[Outro]
Nah
Can't fade this one though
They been fronting on me too long
But we never quit
Peter Pan Africanist
Never never land
Never land baby
