paroles de chanson Intellectualise My Blackness - Live - Skunk Anansie

I hit him with a piece of his philosophy
Anglo-Saxon mocking his type of greed
What did he do to deserve such hate
(He tried to) intellectualize my blackness

He tried to summarize, to institutionalize
Still I could recognize, he was materialized

He tried to intellectualize my blackness
To make it easier for his whiteness
He tried to intellectualize my blackness, oh save me
Save me

He's always tryin' to make up for his little quips
The joke about the nigga and the yellow nip
Then he tells me I'm so different from those other shits
(When he tries to) intellectualize my blackness

He tried to summarize, to institutionalize
Still I could recognize, he was materialized

He tried to intellectualize my blackness
To make it easier for his whiteness
He tried to intellectualize my blackness, oh save me
Save me

Mother, mother don't you lecture-rise me
Don't you ever try to lecturize me
Mother mother don't you lecture-rise me
Oh No

He tried to intellectualize my blackness
To make it easier for his whiteness
He tried to intellectualize my blackness, oh save me
Save me

He tried to intellectualize my blackness
To make it easier for his whiteness
He tried to intellectualize my blackness, oh save me
Save me

Intellectualise me
Intelectualise me
Intelectualise me

Save me
Save me
Save me

(He tried to intellectualize my blackness)
(To make it easier for his whiteness)
(He tried to intellectualize my blackness, oh save me)
(Save me)
