Written by:Shawn Carter/Dion Wilson/Nina Simone/Gene Redd/Jimmy Crosby
Skin is
Skin is
Skin black my skin is black
My black my skin is yellow
Light ni**a dark ni**a faux ni**a real ni**a
Rich ni**a poor ni**a house ni**a field ni**a
Still ni**a still ni**a
I like that second one
Light ni**a dark ni**a faux ni**a real ni**a
Rich ni**a poor ni**a house ni**a field ni**a
Still ni**a still ni**a
O.J. like I'm not black I'm O.J. okay
House ni**a don't f**k with me
I'm a field ni**a with shined cutlery
Gold-plated quarters where the butlers be
I'mma play the corners where the hustlers be
I told him please don't die over the neighborhood
That your mama renting
Take your drug money and buy the neighborhood
That's how you rinse it
I bought every V12 engine
Wish I could take it back to the beginning
I could've bought a place in dumbo before it was dumbo
For like 2 million
That same building today is worth 25 million
Guess how I'm feeling dumbo
Light ni**a dark ni**a faux ni**a real ni**a
Rich ni**a poor ni**a house ni**a field ni**a
Still ni**a still ni**a
Light ni**a dark ni**a faux ni**a real ni**a
Rich ni**a poor ni**a house ni**a field ni**a
Still ni**a still ni**a
You wanna know what's more important
Than throwing away money at a strip club credit
You ever wonder why Jewish people own
All the property in America this how they did it
Financial freedom my only hope
F**k living rich and dying broke
I bought some artwork for 1 million
2 years later that sh*t worth 2 million
Few years later that sh*t worth 8 million
I can't wait to give this sh*t to my children
Y'all think it's bougie I'm like it's fine
But I'm trying to give you a million dollars worth of game for 999
I turned that 2 to a 4 4 into an 8
I turned my life into a nice first week release date
Y'all out here still taking advances huh
Me and my niggas taking real chances uh
Y'all on the gram holding money to your ear
There's a disconnect we don't call that money over here yeah
Light ni**a dark ni**a faux ni**a real ni**a
Rich ni**a poor ni**a house ni**a field ni**a
Still ni**a still ni**a
Light ni**a dark ni**a faux ni**a real ni**a
Rich ni**a poor ni**a house ni**a field ni**a
Still ni**a still ni**a
