Free Your Mind

(アルバム： High On The Hog - 1996)

You wear that clothes and them high heel shoes
That sure don't make you no prostitute
I like rap music and hip hop clothes
It sure don't mean I'm out there selling dope.

Please, forgive me for having straight hair
It sure don't mean that my blood ain't there
I might be another race or colour
Don't mean a thing 'cause I sure love my brothers.

Why oh why must it be this a way ?
Before you can read me you got to learn how to see me.

Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow.

Now, baby sister, you buy things with cash
But that don't mean that your credit is bad
So why dispute me and waste my time ?
Because you think that the price is too high.

I can't look without being watched
You rang my buy before I made up my mind
New attitude, why even bother ?
I can't change my mind and you can't change my colour.

Why oh why must it be this a way ?
Before you can read me, I know you can see me.

Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow.

Free your mind, the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow
Free your mind, the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow.

Oh, why oh why must it be this a way ?
Before you can read me, I know you can see me.

Free your mind, the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow
Free your mind, the rest will follow
Be colour blind, don't be so shallow.
