[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 fuck 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 nigga 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 fuck 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
