lirik lagu naila keleta-mae and jason promesse - i c u too
[part 1]
i see you watching me
i see you’re caught up and confused
wrapped up in my melanin
mesmerized by the skin i’m in
[part 2]
behind blue eyes l~st for black, barely suppressed
exotic
erotic
you think i’m a tigress
still l~sting after centuries of raping the house negress
you remain drawn to my s~xiness
with no intentions of ever bringing me home to momma
you just want to l~st, thrust, throw my body in trauma
i see you watching me
eyes focused on small breast, small waist, and a batty pon c~ck
wishing you had the keys to unlock
these rounded hips
as you l!ck your thin blue lips and whistle at me
i see you watching me
[part 3]
some say, united we stand and divided we fall
you know we’re down when you think of the names of us all
we’ve got black, african american, jamaican, and haitian
lest we forget the sudanese and ethiopian nations
we crawl divided
clutching on to all our different names
fronting like original ancestors aren’t all the same
sister thinks i want her man when i look him in his eye
brother thinks i want to slam when i look him in his eye
i see you watching me
[part 4]
well, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
[part 5]
pushing out stereotypes fed to you by the media hype
mainstream society automatically envisions me as the enemy
the black widow
pushing pram, pushing rock, pushing babies
from my underdeveloped hips
deceiving the government with welfare tricks
‘why can’t they make those laws more strict?’
i see you watching me
subconscious filled with stereotypical propaganda
creating for you my identity
and still your children dress up like wannabes
tryna be who they think i be
i see you watching me
[part 6]
oh, my brotha
you saw me wearing some copper and thick silver
and instantly promoted me to conscious sister
with no attempts to ever know my mind
my locs and dashiki you were happy to find
you called me ‘queen, black goddess manifested in flesh’
eyes filled with all the insecurities of a little boy
and those same eyes tell me you wanna toy with me
lookin’ to me to carry you, to make you strong
to teach you all the new revolutionary songs
instead of finding strength in who you be
you decide you need me
[part 7]
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
no, none of you will ever see me
