Love Me Black

(album: Haus Party, Pt. 3 - 2021)

I love my skin, every single dose of caramel and melanin
Wouldn't trade these too cool [?] for nothing thin
All my chocolate brothers and my sisters, you my kin
'Cause if we don't love each other then we never gon' win
I made a few mistakes, call it my experience
Fell flat on my face, I'ma probably fall again
Twitter trolls tried to drag me, blacklisted
But don't ever get it twisted

'Cause baby I'm all black
All day, all night, of my life, forever, I'ma still be black
And baby I love that, yeah
Love me, drag me, hate me, but that ain't gonna change the fact
'Cause I love my hair and my skin
If I could go back I would come back black again
I got nothing but the good, good, good black loving

And do you love me black?
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Yeah
(Love me black, love me black)
And do you love me black?
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Yeah
(Love me black, love me black)

Yeah, I played the tambourine when I was singing every Sunday
Heard their little whispers, like, "I think [?] son gay"
Telling everybody I'ma be somebody someday
So I grew up, ran away, and found the runway
True, I never felt like I was welcome at the barbershops
Still, I had to learn I wasn't safe when I saw the cops
And if they're killing us and tryna call it colorblindness
I think it's time we kill each other with a little kindness

Baby I'm all black, yeah
All day, all night, of my life, forever, I'ma still be black
And baby I love that
Love me, drag me, hate me, but that ain't gonna change the fact
'Cause I love my hair and my skin (yeah)
If I could go back I would come back black again (ooh)
I got nothing but the good, good, good black loving
Good, good, good loving

Do you love me black?
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Yeah
(Love me black, love me black)
And do you love me black?
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Me black, yeah
(Love me black, love me black)

Turning up my boombox, listening to Yoncé
Which one of my Boyz II Men singing, probably Wanya
Jet magazine just to see the beauty of the week (so weak)
Reminiscing with this WV
Lisa Turtle, crushing on Urkel
You and me will never, ever part, color purple
And if I need a housewife, call my girl Candy
And my one and only Cinderella is brandy

Baby I'm all black, yeah
All day, all night, of my life, forever, I'ma still be black
And baby I love that, yeah
Love me, drag me, hate me, but that ain't gonna change the fact
'Cause I love my hair and my skin
If I could go back I would come back black again
I got nothing but the good, good, good black loving
Good, good loving

Do you love me black?
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Yeah
(Love me black, love me black)
And do you love me black?
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Yeah
(Love me black, love me black)
And do you love me
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Love me, love me
(Love me black, love me black)
And do you love me black?
(Love me black, love me black, love me black)
Yeah, yeah
(Love me black, love me black)
And do you love me black?
