Meshell Ndegéocello - Soul On Ice lyrics

Hip-hop: the white man's world
Gone into niggafied into future shock

Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head soul's on ice
Soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head you let the sisters go by
Your soul's on ice

We've been indoctrinated and convinced by the
White racist standard of beauty
The overwhelming popularity of seeing
Better off being and looking white
My brothers attempt to defy
The white man's law and his system of values
Defiles his white woman, but my my
Master's in the slave house again

Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head soul's on ice
Soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head you let my sisters go by
Your soul's on ice

Brother, brother, brother
Are you suffering from a
Social infection misdirection? Excuse me
Does your white woman go better
With your Brooks Brothers suit?
I have psychotic dreams
Your jism in a white chalk line
You let my sisters go by
Used to be customary to bow one's eyes
At the sight of a white face
Konks and fade creams sad
Passion deferred dreams
I am a reflection of you black and blue
Pure as the tears of coal-colored children
Crying for acceptance
You can't run from yourself
She's just an illusion

Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head your soul's on ice
Your soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head your soul's on ice, baby

Just an illusion just an illusion
All an illusion just an illusion

Black love anthems play
Behind white-skinned affection
New Birth stereophonic spanish fly
Let her cry but, you no longer burn for
The motherland brown skin
You want blond haired, blue-eyed soul
Snow white passion without the hot comb

Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head soul's on ice
Soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head you let my sisters go by
Your soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head you let the sisters go by
Soul's on ice soul's on ice
Your soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head you let the sisters go by
Soul's on ice soul's on ice

Just an illusion just an illusion
All an illusion just an illusion
