Kardinal Offishall - Man By Choice lyrics

Your rating:

He's got the green timbs with the fat laces, hahaha
 Yo, yeah, uh huh
 Checking in, nigga
 You say why I call you nigga, think about it
 You went from what...
 From an African, straight to a nigger, you know what I'm saying
 We traveling over to what, to what,
 Negro, and then we went to what
 Then we went to black
 Then it was on some Afro-American stuff
 Afro-Canadian what have you, but guess what
 It don't matter what you call yourself
 It's what they call you behind your back
 Nigga, straight up
 Straight up and down, you know what I'm sayin
 Y'all know

 [Kardinal Offishall]
 A yo
 Walkin through the uptown a black man (nigga)
 Walkin down Yonge St. a black man (nigga)
 Walkin through Flatbush a black man (nigga)
 When the revolution comes I got a finger on the trigga
 I was born a regular man of the Earth
 With a curse to walk like a soldier since birth
 My exterior is shaded in by my melanin
 Stereotype of my type is a felon
 My people cause static cause automatically now a days we fire automatics
 Grammatically adequate my people come equipped
 With enough lyrics to move battleships
 Blood brother ever since the slave ships
 It doesn't matter who I am when I walk by
 They still see me as a nigga whine I walk by
 That's O.K. - this nigga will play the role and come again and take back the Earth
 another day

 CHORUS
 I'm a nigga baby, we some niggaz baby
 Some do walk, some do talk, some may buss their glocks
 But I'm a nigga for lie and a man by choice

 [Kardinal Offishall]
 Walkin through London a balck man (nigga)
 Walkin through Rexdale a black man (nigga)
 Strollin through Dectaur as a black man (nigga)
 Yo, I was born to emcee representin with the Figurez
 I can taste the history livin in my bones
 For the thickness I got a love jones
 I like my girls with the nappy dug out hips and chest buss out
 Lips real full, gettin ready to cuss out
 Parasuco gettin insulated by the structure
 Body so powered that the labels be stickin out in 3-D
 We salute the ladies - raped over time pushin out light babies
 The slave masters with the devil in their eye
 Saw nothin but a nigga when you walked by
 But you the mother of creation
 Let's bring back the family aspect and try to build a strong nation

 CHORUS

 [Kardinal Offishall]
 Walkin through Chinatown a black man (nigga)
 Walkin through the projects a balck man (nigga)
 Strollin through Africa a black man (nigga)
 Some try to disrespect to make themsleves look bigger
 I am a nigga since birth, a man by choice
 Some men act niggerish pushin Rolls Royces
 Thinkin them toys make a man
 While you johnin them hookers
 We tryin to make a stand
 What you believe in?
 Chris Rock? Or crack rock?
 Soft rock? Or hard rock?
 When I talk the whole world rocks
 LIke the vote, we can change thinkin
 Before you set a float your whole concepts sinkin
 You know I like to see you back that ass up
 But before you pass up, you should get your damn class up!
 Take the hood out your mouth and parle!
 So we can take back the world right now, today! *Vocal scratching*
