All I See Is Melanin lyrics by Arrested Development
All I see is melanin, beautiful melanin
All I see is melanin, melanin, melanin x3
Yeah, okay
All I see is you and you glowin’ again
People called you deranged but you grew to the pain
Through the chains, through the change, the kinks and the bangs
The way you sang through the negative things
You gettin’ famed while the enemies came with derogatory names
Sometimes a superwoman had to become Lois Lane
Sometimes a superman had to bеcome Clark Kent
Playgrounds in your heart surroundеd by a hard fence
I get it
All I see is melanin, beautiful melanin
All I see is melanin, melanin, melanin x3
All I see is pros, no cons or jokes
And from our hair and our clothes, we wide as our nose
And when we really start to flower, we truly a rose
And when we showin’ up with power, they cruelly imposed
But yo, in the final hour, our beauty it glows
And with Africa in our hearts and under our toes
We capturin’ our resources and makin’ ‘em our own
In the whole diaspora, pilgriming home (hey)
All I see is melanin
Vote, Voting Rights Act ended Jim Crow
We can make new amendments stoked
Local election, city council, county commissioner, district attorney
That’s the chief law officer in your community
Unity, we could put an end to the buffoonery
Gonna be a black planet again, lucky you, lucky me
All I see is melanin, beautiful melanin
All I see is melanin, melanin, melanin x3
All I see is melanin beautiful melanin
And my wife’s a natural, she didn’t choose to gelatin
Flyin’ to the Netherlands, opposite of settled in
Bars, Max Kellerman, a born again rebel man
Browner than a spelling bee, blacker than a felony
Actin’ aggressive, hear nothin’ that you tellin’ me
Unmelanateds been related to the sunscreen
Chillin’ on the beach, man, you need more than one cream
One thing, Speech will say, please hold a mayonnaise
But now puttin’ melanin in cans of the tan spray
Enough okay, I can see it runnin’ down your leg, babe
Blacker than a band from Sudan playin’ reggae
All I see is melanin FreakNik, 96
Stuck in traffic, had to sit, couldn’t move a bit
All I see is melanin NFL quarterbacks, Colin Kaepernick
I’ll admit, man, he more than black
All I see is melanin, beautiful melanin
All I see is melanin, melanin, melanin x7
