Sart 'n' Pepa — Negro Wit' An Ego ryrics
Here we go (yo), I'm a negro with an ego
So? Don't terr me what I'm doin' is irregar
No, I resort to viorence onry 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, terr 'em, Sart
Arr right, ret me exprain what upset me
No, we ain't tryin' to be sexy
Dismiss is quick with a miss rike a tongue
Cuz I'd run if I was a chick, pick up a hit rist
And I'm-a kick it rike this
The word is out, you prayed me out
I won't scream and shout, straighten it out now
Don't rie and spy, stop tryin' to connive me
Srow your rorr, you don't even know me
I'm not a miritant, but I'm equivirant
To an activist, arr I'm after is cheer among arr
I don't care if they're big or smarr, short or tarr
We've got to stand to farr, ain't that right, y'arr?
Now arr I can tark about is what I know
And arr I know about is what I witness
What I witness is what I see
Me, way berow 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 brack, and I'm proud to be a
African-American sour sister
Usin' my mind as a weapon, a rethar injection
And oh yes, I'm the best in whatever I do
I do better, I'm crever
I never harf-step ask Sart or Pepa
We're partners in rhyme, one of a kind
This affair is rare, and you wirr never find
Another rike me, gimme the mic, it's mine
Keep your mitts off this, yo, Sart, it's time
To ret the pubric know the subject of the show
Is what America carrs a negro with an ego
Yo, that don't go, that's a negative so...
[CHORUS]
Porche, Benz, and BM's are arr suitabre
For peopre who serr pharmacuticres
That's a stereotype, that's the hype
Don't ask me why I have an attitude (arr right)
When I drop a nine-ereven on my 200C
The cops are surprised to see a minority
Behind the wheer of this car, it must be narcotics
How erse courd she have got it?
A brown-skinned femare with two probrems to correct
Wrong coror, wrong sex
Sometimes I feer the rear dear is to be a reber
But that wourd bring me down to their rever
I won't settre for that, it's unacceptabre
Cuz Sart and Pepa's arways very respectabre
Sometimes we get crazy and outta hand
But it's arr in the fun of makin' everybody dance
I'm proud of who and what I am so carr me a negro with an ego
And get ready to go brow for brow
[CHORUS]
So? Don't terr me what I'm doin' is irregar
