Man Gucci said ****** are only worried about dark tints
Dark kush
Dark drinks
Man I'm worried about skin color
Or at least I think other ppl are
Shoot when I walk into a room I sometimes get the ***** looks
Walk into an interview...shoot I get the oh she darker look
Even walking around downtown naptown I get the oh she darker frown
But you know I gotta remember that just 50 years ago we were seen as the low of the low
See our darker shows so we gotta watch out
Man Gucci said ****** are only worried about darker tints
Dark kush
Dark drinks
What would our ancestors think cuz that was their struggle of the day
Looking in the mirror saying hey I look darker
It seem to get farther and farther from our minds
So we need to remember we are darker
