lirik lagu mandy moore – ltthemonk
[intro]
i came here with no stronger desire
than to last
and get my work done
find a family to love
and adopt me
but must i adopt their values?
leave me a blank face
or can they secure my fate
and adopt mine?
yeah
jas
rest in peace
i need
[chorus]
i need my kirk franklin
dose of tyler perry
ain’t no buffalo stance
with my neneh cherry
i need my hot sauce
some ogs to tell me
how to lean
make me duck when i walk
i’m chuck berry
some black lifе commentary
share that living is scary
even whеn a player ball
ain’t all christmas merry
i’ll tell mandy moore
give you the facts mum
coz that’s what you need
when you adopting a black son
[verse 1]
i’m swearing that interference
is better than disappearance
but it’s apparent that parents
are f*cking with my appearance
i’m stepping out of the pool
so ashy and infinite
amounts of spf 50 really isn’t
cutting it dissonant
sounds of skin friction
wounds i need my moisturizer
while we groom
ain’t married to ideas
of unbridled roots
take a walk down the aisle
walker’s chemicals
there’s a reason why i’m leaving
biological
they’re saying you’ll fare better
when fair skin make the call
to read up on doctrines
become adoptive
son of white world
the superstar pops
but seeing curriculum
accounts of alum
whose brains have been washed
or beaten down numb
they spewing some wild words
some raisins in the sun
or losing lawsuits
and jails they’re buried under
[chorus]
i need my kirk franklin
dose of tyler perry
ain’t no buffalo stance
with my neneh cherry
i need my hot sauce
some ogs to tell me
how to lean
make me duck when i walk
i’m chuck berry
some black life commentary
share that living is scary
even when a player ball
ain’t all christmas merry
i’ll tell mandy moore
give you the facts mum
coz that’s what you need
when you adopting a black son
[bridge]
now we could talk of losing christmas
replaced with kwanzaa
chicken george or jefferson
instead of costanza
keep blackening berries
as the oppressed mantra
link moves to minstrels
socks to tap dancers
talk of losing christmas
replaced with kwanzaa
chicken george or jefferson
instead of costanza
keep blackening berries
as the oppressed mantra
link moves to minstrels
socks to tap dancers
[verse 2]
something i hold onto
something i forget
a history i’ve blocked
a pain that’s present
a skull that’s indented
brain that’s demented
eyes so defensive
never showing resentment
tongue that reflects
a fast moving culture
rejecting the past
and embracing the mould
a body so independent
leaning on the shoulder
forbidden displays of complexity
folds are 10 deep
my n*ggas is in deep
the women is envy
you thinking that getting the white skinned
will lend the
spirit to get the american medley
but redemption deadly
coz you’ll never be
that
but mother can you embrace it
at once i’m in love with the racists
and so scared of anything they be saying
going insane
and know i won’t escape it
[chorus]
need my kirk franklin
dose of tyler perry
no buffalo stance
my neneh cherry
need my hot sauce
ogs to tell me
lean
make me duck when i walk
chuck berry
black life commentary
share living is scary
when a player ball
all christmas merry
tell mandy moore
give you the facts mum
coz that’s what you need
when you adopting a black son
