Free Your Mind Lyrics – En Vogue
Singer: En Vogue
Title: Free Your Mind
Microphone check one, microphone check two, yeah
The other r-a-y, perceived as a criminal or a crook
By the cops but i got more knowledge than a textbook
Look through my neighborhood
See me walking, claim i’m up to no good
On my way to the studio feeling so good
Uh, they pull up fast
It’s the task or the crash with a helluva lotta questions to ask
Why must i always be harassed? what a drag
’cause my pants sag they wanna send me home in a body bag
Little do they know i’m making ends
And reinvesting money inside of my community and helping friends
But prejudice comes in all forms
If i got a fade with no braids or no dreads in my head then i’m norm
You’re always so quick to say i’ll see your kind
I wear tight clothing, high-heeled shoes
It doesn’t mean that i’m a prostitute, no, no
I like rap music, wear hip-hop clothes
That doesn’t mean that i’m out sellin’ dope, no, no, no
Oh my forgive me for having straight hair, no
It doesn’t mean there’s another blood in my heir, yeah, yeah
I might date another race or color
It doesn’t mean i don’t like my strong black brothers
Mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah
Why oh why must it be this way?
Mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah
Before you can read me you gotta learn how to see me, i said
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
So i’m a sista, buy things with cash
That really doesn’t mean that all my credit’s bad, oh
So why dispute me and waste my time?
Because you really think the price is high for me
I can’t look without being watched, no
You rang my buy before i made up my mind, ow!
Oh now attitude, why even bother?
I can’t change your mind, you can’t change my color
Mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah
Why oh why must it be this way?
Mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah
Before you can read me you gotta learn how to see me, i said
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
Free your mind
Ray luv’s in the house so believe this
Bringin’ this funky track with my girls, the funky divas
Talkin’ about a topic that my homies is addressin’
No censorship here ’cause it’s all about expression
Really it’s all about how you see yourself
Don’t judge me for my dress code, kid, be yourself
’cause i do rap, you play me for a hood
I probably do drugs and i must be no good
But i’m intelligent, my mind’s sharp as a razorblade
A hundred percent street and out to get major paid
Terry, dawn, cindy, maxine, blow
Mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah, mmm-dah
Why oh why must it be this way?
Before you can read me you gotta learn how to see me, i said
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind, don’t be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
