I am tired of being black,
Oh—excuse me, should I lie?
Okay, well then golly gee ‘brotha’,
for this blackness I am most willing to die
Oh, ‘brotha’ how much longer must I wear this mask?
Where is Dunbar so we can?
But don’t worry, man. This world won’t be "over-wise"
Cause our skin’s got all the power to hypnotize
When they see this skin, they just gon’ shift the blame
As ign’int slaves is how we done got our fame
I am tired of being black
I am tired of being black,
Oh—excuse me, should I lie?
Okay, well then golly gee ‘brotha’,
