En Vogue - Free Your Mind

I wear tight clothing and high heel shoes
That doesn't make me a prostitute
I like rap music, wear hip hop clothes
That doesn't mean that I'm sellin' dope

Oh please forgive me for having straight hair
It doesn't mean there's another blood in my heirs
I might date another race or color
Doesn't mean I don't like
my strong black brothers

Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala
Why oh why must is be this way
Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala
Before you can read me
You've got to learn how to see me

Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind don't be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind don't be so shallow

So I'm a sista
Buy things with cash
That really doesn't mean that all my credit's bad So why dispute me and waste my time
Because you think that the price is too high for me
I can't look without being watched
You rang my buy before I made up my mind

Oh now attitude
why even bother
I can't change your mind,
you can't change my color

Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala
Why oh why must is be this way
Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala
Before you can read me
You've got to learn how to see me

Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind don't be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind don't be so shallow
Free your mind

Oh lala, oh lala, oh lala, oh lala
Why oh why must is be this way
Before you can read me
You've got to learn how to see me

Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind don't be so shallow
Free your mind and the rest will follow
Be color blind don't be so shallow
Free your mind
