You must establish a new base
And we are as a group demanding
That a new base be established
Yeah but be careful as a woman
What you demand of a man
I demand that he be a man
Yeah but you can't say
You demand it
You have to suggest it
That that's your ego that says that
No I demand it
Now you deal with that
Alright okay
I'll even go with that
I demand that you be a man
And I don't think that that's
Asking too much
Talk is cheap I wanna see
The difference in us honestly
Fightin' white supremacy
While chasin' money power cheeks
Y'all really bout this revolution and equality
Or just wish that you could split
The pie and get the biggest piece
All colors creeds
Gay bisexual straight
Every man upon the planet
Walks a privileged way
Peep that wisdom from our sisters
Mister get off the stage
Take a seat and take some notes
As women gift us with rage
It's difficult to listen
Even harder to change
But I know a God with power
To call men up out the grave
Don't need no fake religion
Homies frontin' like they godly
All these Huxtables is really
Undercover Cosbys
Even Cosby is not too destitute for grace
But the truth can't set you free
If you keep lyin' out yo face
Just admit it
I got plenty dirt and blood on my hands
I done hurt so many of my family
Lovers and friends
Consequences when you foolish
Can't always restore the ruins
But you can build something new
If you switch up the way you movin'
I'll never be the brother that I shoulda been to Ariel
But a lot of younger chirren
Really countin' on me now
I'll keep it real
I ain't the quickest to change
A tortoise on you hares
But you should see where I came
The Lord is able
To make an Abel out of a Cain
I still be messin' up
But not defined by my mistakes
A righteous man get up
Every time he falls on his face
Steady learnin' I'm determined
and love is never too late
I been checkin' my heart
I been diggin' so deep
Tell me what kinda man
Am I really gon' be
Whenever I fall
I get back on my feet
By the grace of my God
Ima be a new me
I been checkin' my heart
I been diggin' so deep
Tell me what kinda man
Am I really gon' be
Whenever I fall
I get back on my feet
By the grace of my God
Ima be a new me
Talk is cheap
I don't need your compliments or your flattery
Treat women disgusting
but you frontin' and callin' me queen
You only friendly
Because you feelin' my steeze
Your kindness would disappear
If you didn't want in my jeans
I'm making moves
Got visions and prophesies
Foolish if you think we just be feinin'
For diamonds rings
Don't want no sugar daddy
I'm growin' some healthy greens
Get up outa my lane
Or invest in the dream
Need homies and business partners
Who ain't tryin' to hit it
But committed to equality
And leverage their privilege
To help women raise to leadership
They try to omit us
Even when we more than capable
And doing it better
I'm so tired of oppression
I ain't come here to ask
I'm demanding that you give us
What we already have
Dignity and that's it
Ain't no need to protect
Just stop preying on us
And I'm pretty sure we'll be set
Shouldn't have to be your Momma
Wifey daughter or sis
To receive respect and honor
Every human should get
I been checkin' my heart
I been diggin' so deep
Tell me what kinda man
Am I really gon' be
Whenever I fall
I get back on my feet
By the grace of my God
Ima be a new me
Aye talk is cheap
You see the
The strange flesh
Had turned us to strange fruits
You treat me estranged
Yet I still pick you like strange roots
Community full of pain
And the stigma like stained juice
We joint but remain loose
And it feel like the same noose
Check your heart at the thought of me
Check your mouth when you joke
And why your pride in your money
Knowing they keeping us broke
Why I tip toe around yo ego
In my Jordans
You don't wanna talk about it
Talk about avoidance
Know money power don't mean respect
You need to wake up
And love if I'm a bitch
Cause I don't like you
Need to shape up
Think men show no emotion
But you really wear yo heart on yo sleeve
Don't need to argue 'bout respect
We need to learn how to grieve
And we can't climb out of this hole
If the shovels is still diggin'
We lack but we still winnin'
We Black but we still women
They label us angry
Them mean Queen Corettas
We the daughters of slaves
And the wives of female forgetters
I been checkin' my heart
I been diggin' so deep
Tell me what kinda man
Am I really gon' be
Whenever I fall
I get back on my feet
By the grace of my God
Ima be a new me
I been checkin' my heart
I been diggin' so deep
Tell me what kinda man
Am I really gon' be
Whenever I fall
I get back on my feet
By the grace of my God
Ima be a new me
