I wear tight clothing and high heel shoes That doesn't make me a prostitute I like rap music, wear hip hop clothes That doesn't mean that I'm sellin' dope
Oh please forgive me for having straight hair It doesn't mean there's another blood in my heirs I might date another race or color Doesn't mean I don't like my strong black brothers
Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala Why oh why must is be this way Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala Before you can read me You've got to learn how to see me
Free your mind and the rest will follow Be color blind don't be so shallow Free your mind and the rest will follow Be color blind don't be so shallow
So I'm a sista Buy things with cash That really doesn't mean that all my credit's bad
So why dispute me and waste my time Because you think that the price is too high for me I can't look without being watched You rang my buy before I made up my mind
Oh now attitude why even bother I can't change your mind, you can't change my color
Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala Why oh why must is be this way Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala Before you can read me You've got to learn how to see me
Free your mind and the rest will follow Be color blind don't be so shallow Free your mind and the rest will follow Be color blind don't be so shallow Free your mind
Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala Why oh why must is be this way Before you can read me You've got to learn how to see me
Free your mind and the rest will follow Be color blind don't be so shallow Free your mind and the rest will follow Be color blind don't be so shallow Free your mind
