Welcome to the colored section
Welcome to the Negro league
Sign your name on the black list and know this
It's American history

See what it is to be blackmailed
See a real live conspiracy
Sign your name on the black list and know this
It's American history

First black this and first black that
Give me the truth and not the facts
We are the original people
The alpha and omega of it all but
We get the short end of the stick all of the time

Welcome to the colored section
See what it is to be me
Sign your name on the black list and know this
It's American history

See the rape of the earth queen
See the buy, sell and trade of me (on the auction block)
Sign your name on the black list and know this
It's American history

First black this and first black that
Give me the truth and not the facts
We are the original people
The alpha and omega of it all but
We get the short end of the stick all of the time

Who would have thought we would come this far?
Who would have known that we would almost forget who we were?
Did ye not know ye are Gods?
The real celebrities and the stars

And we know for this cause, we get the short end of the stick all of the time
