"Soul On Ice" lyrics - MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO

[Intro:]
Hip-hop: the white man's world
Gone into niggafied into future shock

[Chorus:]
Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
Soul's on ice
Soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
You let the sisters go by
Your soul's on ice

We've been indoctrinated and convinced by the white racist standard of beauty
The overwhelming popularity of seeing, better off being and looking white
My brothers attempt to defy the white man's law
And his system of values
Defiles his white woman, but my my, Master's in the slave house again

[Chorus:]
Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
Soul's on ice
Soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
You let my sisters go by
Your soul's on ice

Brother, brother, brother
Are you suffering from a social infection misdirection?
Excuse me, does your white woman go better with your Brooks Brothers suit?
I have psychotic dreams, your jism in a white chalk line
You let my sisters go by
Used to be customary to bow one's eyes at the sight of a white face
Konks and fade creams sad passion deferred dreams
I am a reflection of you
Black and blue
Pure as the tears of coal-colored children
Crying for acceptance
You can't run from yourself
She's just an illusion

[Chorus:]
Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
Your soul's on ice
Your soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
Your soul's on ice, baby

[Interlude:]
Just an illusion
Just an illusion
All an illusion
Just an illusion

Black love anthems play behind white-skinned affection
New Birth stereophonic spanish fly let her cry
But you no longer burn for the motherland brown skin
You want blond-haired, blue-eyed soul
Snow white passion without the hot comb

[Chorus:]
Visions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
Soul's on ice
Soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
You let my sisters go by
Your soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
You let the sisters go by
Soul's on ice
Soul's on ice
Your soul's on ice
Delusions of her virginal white beauty
Dancin' your head
You let the sisters go by
Soul's on ice
Soul's on ice

[Outro:]

[Interlude:]
Just an illusion
Just an illusion
All an illusion
Just an illusion
