[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
