Human being I can put you on Being black and free and alive can you put me on? Being a queen of colour girl can you put me on? Being the best I can be for myself I can put you on (Yea yea) I could put you on Human being I can put you on Being black and free and alive can you put me on? Being a queen of colour girl can you put me on Being the best I can be for you I could put you on (Yea yea) I could you put you on Thanks to the African foremothers this world was built on their backs The in-between of their legs is treasure but as men we use it as crack Can't show face so we hit from the back The paler the skin the blacker the crack By that I mean the realest of crack But being black who wouldn't want that (Who)? Ain't no space on history's page Telling tales of heroes who came Before black people were enslaved Fictional characters Kunta Kinte (Ay) What about Mansa Musa who reigned (Ay) What about ama Winnie who slayed (Ay) Forgiveness with all of the pain Democracy but who gettin’ paid? Just today I heard a white man say that black people all look alike Then proceeded to say that's not what he thinks Then left with a smile and a wink I let that sink and it made me sick If not for this job you can my dick Angry and black that stigma stick 2018 and I still feel the whip But that shouldn't stop me I won't fold origami Show love to everybody Acknowledge the past Please hurry (Yea!) Hate eating up everybody Please don't forget who we really be African time we ain’t tardy Cuz you still ain't at the party But it's a party Human being I can put you on Being black and free and alive can you put me on? Being a queen of colour girl can you put me on? Being the best I can be for myself I can put you on (Yea yea) I could put you on Human being I can put you on Being black and free and alive can you put me on? Being a queen of colour girl can you put me on Being the best I can be for you I can put you on (Yea yea) I could you put you on Swimming in pools of contradiction But I didn't know that I could swim in Oceans that are filled with ignorance All of the dark shit I was ignoring All of the Xenophobia (Bullshit) All of the inherent racism (Bullshit) All of the inner hate-tism (Bullshit) Corruption setting-us-back-ism (Bullshit) Can the people get what's theirs like the Royal Bafokeng Don't talk to me 'bout nonsense cuz you messing up my zen Please teach my people that paying rent ain't ownership Ain't no woman can be owned so stop calling her a bitch I hope karma is on to you Touch her again it's hell for you Black on black on black on black on black Why don't we own our truth Why can't I always buy from you I bet there are things I could learn from you But I just keep on judging you Why can't we love like our mamas do Keep it together like a duku Keep connecting like Bluetooth For us by us FUBU It's all from here even couscous Still buying back our own goods Not doing more for our neighbourhoods Waking up to that coulda woulda And fucking ourselves back to the hoods We ain't building up Human being I can put you on Being black and free and alive can you put me on? Being a queen of colour girl can you put me on? Being the best I can be for myself I can put you on (Yea yea) I could put you on Human being I can put you on Being black and free and alive can you put me on? Being a queen of colour girl can you put me on Being the best I can be for you I can put you on (Yea yea) I could you put you on
