Salt-N-Pepa - Negro Wit An Ego

Here we go (yo) I'm a negro with an ego

So? Don't tell me what I'm doin' is illegal

No I resort to violence only when provoked

Contrary to rumors I'm no joke

If I sound hard it's because I'm pee ed off

And do you wanna know why? Go 'head tell 'em Salt

All right let me explain what upset me

No we ain't tryin' to be sexy

Dismiss is quick with a miss like a tongue

Cuz I'd run if I was a chick pick up a hit list

And I'm-a kick it like this

The word is out, you played me out

I won't scream and shout, straighten it out now

Don't lie and spy, stop tryin' to connive me

Slow your roll, you don't even know me

I'm not a militant, but I'm equivilant

To an activist, all I'm after is cheer among all

I don't care if they're big or small, short or tall

We've got to stand to fall, ain't that right, y'all?

Now all I can talk about is what I know

And all I know about is what I witness

What I witness is what I see

Me, way below status quo cuz I'm a negro with an ego

Yo, that don't go

CHORUS

Put some faith in your race

Put some faith in your race (repeat)

I'm black, and I'm proud to be a

African-American soul sister

Usin' my mind as a weapon, a lethal injection

And oh yes, I'm the best in whatever I do

I do better, I'm clever

I never half-step ask Salt or Pepa

We're partners in rhyme, one of a kind

This affair is rare, and you will never find

Another like me, gimme the mic, it's mine

Keep your mitts off this, yo, Salt, it's time

To let the public know the subject of the show

Is what Ame
