| She got that mocha-chino baby on the back of the bus
|
| If you close your eyes and listen she would be one of us Never did trust, her family at home
|
| So she kicked it in the hood, raised her self on her own
|
| She talk with that tone, but she white to the bone
|
| You would swear she was black if you spoke on the phone
|
| Some say its overgrown, but she don’t give a damn
|
| All the black girls think that she want they man
|
| But it’s not your fault that they attracted to you
|
| That you blessed and got as much back as you do Most white boys say that you’re way too thick
|
| And some brothers might say, you’re the number one pick
|
| You say, girl… Roll your eyes twist your neck
|
| But it comes from the soul you don’t mean no disrespect
|
| And even when they check you, you just keep it movin'
|
| Cuz in your heart you feel you ain’t got nothing to be provin'
|
| Whether chocolate or vanilla, or you’re somewhere in between
|
| A cappuccino mocha or a caramel queen
|
| Rejected by the black, not accepted by the white world
|
| And this is dedicated to them dark skinned white girls
|
| Now she like, Dismissed, The Cure, really into Morrisey
|
| Heavy on the rock never fooled with the Joe to see
|
| You would notice she was never really welcomed by the others
|
| Hard to find a date when there was only ten brothers
|
| In the whole damn school, and they thought she was weird
|
| Cuz she wore her hair different, and she never joined cheer
|
| A melancholy dolly with a Polly want-a syndrome
|
| White step-father black daddy never been home
|
| And when on the quad she could hear em’say
|
| Look at how she walks, why she talk that way
|
| But girl it’s okay, your black is beautiful
|
| No matter how you dress, or no matter what music you like
|
| Forget what they say, you’re doin’it right
|
| No more grabbin’on your pillow as you cry through the night
|
| Stand strong, hold your ground at any cost
|
| and know that everyone who tries to put you down is lost
|
| Now for you half-and-half and mixed girls, I know what the battle be Every time you go out, it’s what’s your nationality
|
| Everybody always wanna dig up in your background
|
| You don’t look _____, now how does that sound
|
| I couldn’t tell you or…(tell you or…)
|
| Oh, is that right
|
| Do you take it as a compliment or start up a fight
|
| Venezuelan and Indian, Rican and Dominican
|
| Japanese or Portuguese, quarter a Brazilian and.
|
| White and Korean, Black and Pinay
|
| I could find out later it don’t matter you’re fly
|
| It really don’t make a difference to most of us guys
|
| We just need an excuse to get close and say hi I know they call you stuck up, you think you’re too pretty
|
| Spreadin’rumors about you, all throughout the city
|
| So much attention, so many haters
|
| But don’t be bitter, you’ll be better for it later and… |
