I Want To Be Black
I’m so white
You’re so black
Once I go black
I never go back
I’m so white
You’re so black
I wanna be at where you are at
I’m so white
You’re so black
My skin color a minor setback
I’m so white
You’re so black
I wanna change
From the palest gray
To the darkest day
From the whitest lie
To the blackest night
I wanna be black like Malcolm X
I wanna be black
I really mean it
I wanna be black like MLK
I wanna be black like Morgan Freeman
Set me free
I’m so white
You’re so black
Once I go black
I never go back
I’m so white
You’re so black
I wanna be at where you are at
I’m so white
You’re so black
My skin color a minor setback
I’m so white and you’re so black
I wanna change
From the palest gray
To the darkest day
From the whitest lie
To the blackest night
I wanna be black like Malcolm X
I wanna be black
I really mean it
I wanna be black like John Amos
I wanna be black like Morgan Freeman
Set me free
I will practice everyday
Won’t be an embarrassment
I’ll get those subtitles down
All the way
Please let me in
To your club
Because
I wanna change
From the palest gray
To the darkest day
From the whitest lie
To the blackest night
I wanna be black like Malcolm X
I wanna be black
I really mean it
I wanna be black like MLK
I wanna be black like Morgan Freeman
Set me free
From the whitest lie
To the blackest night
