Darkie Lyrics - Propaganda

Pickaninny fieldhand, just another darkie 

Blue black, big lip, motherland monkey 

Dark skin, nappy head, always being ugly 

You just another darkie, you just another darkie 

When you hear 'em talking, just love 'em and keep walking 

Prayed for you, brothers, the masters done brainwashed 'em 

Say it loud for 'em, ignoring all of the mocking 

You just another darkie, you just another darkie 

I used to wish I was Puerto-Rican 

'Cause that type of black was different 

They had curly hair and accents 

And I would be called exotic 

I would lie and say I'm half-something 

Mixed with this and that of sorts 

Anything to not just be a fieldhand descendent 

I knew black meant I was beautiful 

X Clan done taught me that much 

That ain't stop the black folks, black jokes at lunch 

I had Shaka Zulu, Nefertiti, Tutankhamun posters 

Hanging on my walls to ease the pain of them boulders 

Thrown 'em, so ashamed I got the round nose of a king 

I'm from the most mimicked culture but that ain't do a thing for my self-image 

Subjected to a standard I could never meet 

Genetics don't let blue eyes ever come with black feet 

Culture say that black feet don't belong on skateboards 

They should stay on reservations; Mama Winnie came for 'em 

Black people self-police "you sound white when you speak" 

Why you're hair so nappy? You was just another darkie

Fat lip, wide nose (you just another darkie) 

Looking like some burnt toast (you just another darkie) 

Nappy headed, so gross (you just another darkie) 

Master got 'em so fooled (you just another darkie) 

Some people still blind (you just another darkie) 

Hating on they own kind (you just another darkie) 

Put your fist in the sky 

And don't pay 'em no mind (you just another darkie) 

Man, why should I care at all 

When you burn your own city whole? 

And your daughter want a white doll 

Man, y'all don't even like y'all 

Photos 

I remember they told me I would look better if I was lighter 

Get wedded on the island with the dress to match my silence 

Tell your melanin be quiet, it's too loud to match the culture 

The vultures of the media, Wikipedia wrote the posters 

Who you mailin' to? Who you selling to? 

Is your cerebellum bailing you out? 

Or is you jailed by the mouth that told you failin' to not be yourself? 

I know I believed it, I know I repeated what was me sleeping 

Killing my dreams, maybe if I was thicker my skin wouldn't make a scene 

Such a protagonist activist for a massive king 

They treat him like the villain yet they don't want what master schemes 

Living like immigrants yet they don't want the master's things 

Who's a slave? Who's the one to blame for the nappyness, the averages? 

Love over hate is the fraction with the happiest 

Mathematicians adding the blackness African applicants 

The night embedded, I don't regret it, the blackest skin 

Fat lip, wide nose (you just another darkie) 

Looking like some burnt toast (you just another darkie) 

Nappy headed, so gross (you just another darkie) 

Master got 'em so fooled (you just another darkie) 

Some people still blind (you just another darkie) 

Hating on they own kind (you just another darkie) 

Put your fist in the sky 

And don't pay 'em no mind (you just another darkie) 

Man, why should I care at all 

When you burn your own city whole? 

And your daughter want a white doll 

Man, y'all don't even like y'all
