1:24:01
But I don't wanna be
just another girl

1:24:06
Just another face in the crowd
And it's got me shook

1:24:09
I gotta mean
a little more to you

1:24:12
Than a space in your list
Of your things to do

1:24:14
Another G-Shock done
In your Benz

1:24:17
Another dime piece
That you can show all your friends

1:24:19
You can call me crazy
say I'm insecure

1:24:22
But I don't wanna be
just another girl

1:24:29
What if I was white
Skin the same color as Eminem

1:24:32
With blond hair and blue eyes
The whole shebang

1:24:35
I know one thing, police
wouldn't always be watchin' me

1:24:38
Pullin' me over for nothing
Constantly jockin' me

1:24:41
Yellow Cabsin the city
1:24:43
I wouldn't need collateral
to buy property if I was white

1:24:46
Wouldn't matter
If I was rich or poor

1:24:48
Security wouldn't follow me around the
store like I'm gonna steal somethin'

1:24:52
Because I'm black, I rob
1:24:53
And automatically assume
I ain't got no job

1:24:56
On my own land
Feel like an immigrant

1:24:58
If I was white, I wouldn't have
thought O.J. was innocent

1:25:01
If I was white, What if he was white
What if he was white

1:25:05
- Yo, think about that for a minute
- What if he was white

1:25:07
- Wow
- What if he was white

1:25:09
- What if he was white, white, white
- What if he was white

1:25:13
- What if he was white
- What if he was black

1:25:16
What if he was white
1:25:18
- What if he were white
- What if he was white, white, white

1:25:23
If I was white, it'd be
a different world for me

1:25:25
If I was white, hmm
What shade would I be

1:25:28
Would I be redneck or skinhead
preppy or high-class

1:25:31
You'd probably live in a trailer park
And be white trash

1:25:34
In any case, there'd be
an illside, right

1:25:36
But there's a good and a bad
side of bein' white

1:25:41
What's up, my brother, De La Soul Pete
I have two left feet

1:25:44
Even if I was white
I'd still have a better chance

1:25:47
Is it a myth or would I
really have a little

1:25:50
If I was white
I'd probably listen to hard rock

1:25:52
And cover my ears
Whenever I heard hip-hop

1:25:55
What if he was white
What if he was white

1:25:58
- What if he was white
- What if he was white
