Head shoulders knees and toes
Lips, my eyes, my mouth, my nose
They all go against what society calls beautiful
I'm left handed in my right mind
I'm pleasantly plump a phat dime
Black as night and a bright night
As you can see I am beautiful me
I was born by the river the day after the tenth
And its hard to deliver, Scorpio energy's so intense
Makes me wanna hollar, now I know what Marvin meant
The industry's so cold, give me the things to my ancestors you owe, so
Head shoulders knees and toes
Lips, my eyes, my mouth, my nose
They all go against what society calls beautiful
I'm left handed in my right mind
I'm pleasantly plump a phat dime
Black as night and a bright night
As you can see I am beautiful me
Said American music was built upon my back
R&B, soul, your rock and roll, your blues, your ragtime and your jazz
Yes I herald the gospel, funk, hip-hop techno
And I'll sing forever in the name of the American Negro
I'm not a nigga I'm a negro,
When I become a nigga I'll let you know
Head shoulders knees and toes
Lips, my eyes, my mouth, my nose
They all go against what society calls beautiful
[Repeat 2x]
I'm left handed in my right mind
I'm pleasantly plump a phat dime
Black as night and a bright night
As you can see I am beautiful me
I'm not a nigga I'm a negro,
When I become a nigga I'll let you know
[Repeat]
