Lyrics
Look how the melanin drippin
Look how the melanin drippin
Look how the melanin drippin
My skin is so black like the deepest love
Black like a beetle bug
Ain't no different I'm black just like Jesus was
Pressed and you stressed when you see my success
I'm a blessing, You sound like you need a hug
Blessed and I'm flexin ain't doing no regressing
I move with the movement now speed it up
Look, came thru straight wreckin shit
Cause ain't none of these truths self evident
We rock solid like core, like sediment
We ain't got no motherfuckin president hoe
Black power black excellence
These ignorant motherfuckas ain't pressin me
I been gifted since school, ain't testing me
They too damn small minded for the best of me
The worst of me what they thirst to see
Your stereotypes don't work for me
One day your racist ass kids gon work for me
That's gon hurt to see, like certainly
They won't charge these cops with the first degree
When their agenda is surrender or they hurting me
Melanin drippin guess that's why they trippin
We different, they scared of the pigment
Look how the melanin drippin
Look how the melanin drippin
Look how the melanin drippin
I do not fit your description
Look how the melanin drippin
Aye, look how the melanin drippin
Look how immaculate, black is no accident
How could you begin to challenge it
Me I'm too passionate look how I'm matching it
I'm what the others was lacking in
I don't think small, I want it all, I want a mill to be average
Life of the lavish, covered in hundreds
Don't get to sleep in the mansion
All it takes is a solid motive
We been moving like we got controllers
We been waiting for the perfect opportunity
To show em it's a lot colder
Tryna bubble like a dropped soda
Different reasons why they eyes on ya
Some wanna see you do good
Others see you as a threat, got me like bet
See you the ignorant kind
I thought you coulda been different
Thought after four hundred years of the same
That level of ignorance just to ridiculous
See we still got a distance, I guess we still seen as niggas
Melanin drippin, guess that's why they trippin
We different, they scared of the pigment
Look how the melanin drippin
Look how the melanin drippin
Look how the melanin drippin
I do not fit your description
Look how the melanin drippin
Aye, look how the melanin drippin
