[00:06.970] Complexion don't mean a thing it's a Zulu love
[00:11.510]
[00:14.050] Complexion two-step
[00:16.140]
[00:18.020] It all feels the same it's a Zulu love
[00:21.840]
[00:26.890] Dark as the midnight hour or bright as the mornin' sun
[00:29.380] Give a fuck about your complexion I know what the Germans done
[00:31.890]
[00:33.250] Sneak dissin'
[00:34.210]
[00:34.810] Sneak me through the back window I'm a good field nigga
[00:37.260] I made a flower for you outta cotton just to chill with you
[00:39.810] You know I'd go the distance you know I'm ten toes down
[00:42.560] Even if master listenin' cover your ears he 'bout to mention
[00:45.430] Complexion two-step
[00:47.970]
[00:49.660] Complexion don't mean a thing it's a Zulu love
[00:53.710]
[00:56.650] Complexion two-step
[00:58.880]
[01:00.590] It all feels the same it's a Zulu love
[01:04.260]
[01:09.460] Dark as the midnight hour I'm bright as the mornin' Sun
[01:11.960] Brown skinned but your blue eyes tell me your mama can't run
[01:14.940]
[01:15.830] Sneak dissin'
[01:16.700]
[01:17.350] Sneak me through the back window I'm a good field nigga
[01:19.840] I made a flower for you outta cotton just to chill with you
[01:22.410] You know I'd go the distance you know I'm ten toes down
[01:25.120] Even if master's listenin' I got the world's attention
[01:27.660] So I'mma say somethin' that's vital and critical for survival
[01:30.760] Of mankind if he lyin' color should never rival
[01:33.290] Beauty is what you make it I used to be so mistaken
[01:35.930] By different shades of faces
[01:37.180] Then wit told me "You're womanless woman love the creation"
[01:39.850] It all came from God then you was my confirmation
[01:42.460] I came to where you reside
[01:44.090] And looked around to see more sights for sore eyes
[01:46.450] Let the Willie Lynch theory reverse a million times with
[01:49.500] Complexion two-step
[01:52.470]
[01:53.640] Complexion don't mean a thing it's a Zulu love
[01:57.780]
[02:00.640] Complexion two-step
[02:03.500]
[02:04.650] It all feels the same it's a Zulu love
[02:08.710]
[02:10.780] You like it I love it
[02:12.790]
[02:13.310] You like it I love it
[02:15.420]
[02:16.050] You like it I love it
[02:18.080]
[02:18.790] You like it I love it
[02:20.820]
[02:21.340] You like it I love it
[02:23.460]
[02:24.310] You like it I love it
[02:26.620] You like it I love it
[02:28.650]
[02:29.320] You like it I love it
[02:31.430]
[02:43.700] Let me talk my Stu Scott 'scuse me on my 2pac
[02:47.560] Keep your head up when did you stop Love and die
[02:50.530]
[02:51.280] Color of your skin color of your eyes
[02:53.380]
[02:53.900] That's the real blues baby like you met Jay's baby
[02:56.570]
[02:57.900] You blew me away you think more beauty in blue green and grey
[03:01.680] All my Solomon up north 12 years a slave
[03:04.200] 12 years of age thinkin' my shade too dark
[03:06.730] I love myself I no longer need Cupid
[03:09.050] And forcin' my dark side like a young George Lucas
[03:11.870] Light don't mean you smart bein' dark don't make you stupid
[03:14.400] And frame of mind for them bustas ain't talkin' "Woohah!"
[03:17.170] Need a paradox for the pair of dots they tutored
[03:19.510]
[03:20.040] Like two ties L-L you lose two times
[03:22.210]
[03:22.790] If you don't see you beautiful in your complexion
[03:25.270] It ain't complex to put it in context
[03:27.650] Find the air beneath the kite that's the context
[03:30.270] Yeah baby I'm conscious ain't no contest
[03:32.950] If you like it I love it all your earth tones been blessed
[03:35.440]
[03:36.020] Ain't no stress jigga boos wanna be
[03:38.000]
[03:38.610] I ain't talkin' Jay I ain't talkin' Bey
[03:41.190] I'm talkin' days we got school watchin' movie screens
[03:43.880] And spike yourself esteem
[03:45.150] The new James Bond gon' be black as me
[03:47.320] Black as brown hazelnut cinnamon black tea
[03:49.450]
[03:50.020] And it's all beautiful to me
[03:51.750] Call your brothers magnificent call all the sisters queens
[03:54.340] We all on the same team blues and pirus no colors ain't a thing
[03:57.810]
[04:04.350] Barefoot babies with no cares
[04:06.000]
[04:09.990] Teenage gun toters that don't play fair should I get out the car
[04:13.610]
[04:17.430] I don't see Compton I see something much worse
[04:20.060] The land of the landmines the hell that's on earth
