[00:00.00]I used to **** my pillow at night
[00:04.99]The type of silent prayer to make myself prepare for the light
[00:08.97]Me and my cousin
[00:09.67]Duce would rank the girls between one and ten
[00:13.62]And the highest number got to be my pillows pretend
[00:16.87]Now I apologize to every high ranker
[00:20.40]But you taught me how to dream and so
[00:22.38]I also thank you
[00:23.63]I never had the courage to approach you at school
[00:27.42]We joked around a lot and
[00:29.07]I know you thought
[00:30.07]I dressed cool
[00:31.42]But I was just coverin' up all the insecurities that came bubblin' up
[00:38.22]My complexion had me stuck in an emotional rut
[00:41.97]Like the time you flavor flaved me
[00:44.27]And you played me "Yo chuck"
[00:46.30]They say, "You're too black", man
[00:49.00]I think I'm too black
[00:50.00]Mom do you think
[00:51.35]I'm too black?
[00:52.55]I think I'm too black,
[00:54.00]I think I'm too black
[00:55.70]I think I'm too black, black, black, black, black
[00:58.95]Back Stacey, they called me, "Black Stacey"
[01:02.80]I never got to be myself 'cause to myself
[01:05.75]I always was,
[01:07.05]Black Stacey, in polka dots and
[01:09.70]PaisleyA double goose and
[01:12.75]Bally shoes, you thought it wouldn't phase me
[01:15.55]I was black

[01:34.40]Til madame
[01:35.40]C.J. Walker walked into my dreams
[01:39.10]I dreamt of bein' white and complimented by you
[01:42.85]But the only shiny black thing that you liked was my shoes
[01:46.55]Now, I apologize for bottlin' up
[01:50.50]All the little things you said that warped my head and my gut
[01:54.70]Even though
[01:56.00]I always told you not to
[01:58.30]Brag about the fact that your great grand
[02:01.80]Mother was raped by her slave master
[02:04.95]Yeah, I became militant too
[02:07.95]So it was clear on every level
