mahogany jones - melanin lyrics
verse 1:
it’s gotta be magic/look at the way that we abra+cad+dab+it/
/its all in the fabric/ i checked the tag and the genes are elastic/ maybe gymnastic / i flipped the odds then we surpassed them/
we are the baddest/ they try to make it like we below average/
sweet as molasses/ what they gonna do with all of this blackness?/ they they tryna bag it/ after my culture but they can not have it/ they tryna banish thе truth of my beauty cause they can not stand it/ thеy want our color so they go and tan it/ label me “other” then hand me a bandage/
i been blue black/my truth thats facts /my boots combat/ even my hair fight back/ i am clap back/ i am a aphrodisiac/ visual high contact/ from good stock+ nasdaq+
hook:
melanin pop/melain flossin/melanin flosssss/may the melanin pop
melanin flossin/may the melanin popmelanin flossin’/may the melanin+ ah+3x
melanin drip/ i’m marinated vitamin d i’m concentrated/
melanin pop i’m carbonated/look at the way that i lemonade+ed/
all of the lemons society give me you’d figure i be eliminated/ instead i’m just studied and imitated/ i can’t be copied or duplicated/
way too original/ i think its criminal/ alla the years we been violated/ look at me everywhere+celebrated/now i’m all over+ i’m syndicated/
melanin all through bible/melanin don’t blend in
melanin built for survival/ melanin don’t cave+ in
melanin tight that’s tribal/ melanin real african+2x
melanin on top again
hook:
melanin pop/melain flossin/melanin flosssss/may the melanin pop
melanin flossin/may the melanin popmelanin flossin’/may the melanin+ ah+3x
i been blue black/my truth thats facts /my boots combat/ even my hair fight back/ i am clap back/ i am a aphrodisiac/ visual high contact/ from good stock+ nasdaq+
