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 is 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 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 is 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 embarassment I'll get those subtitles down

All the way please let me into 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
