En Vogue Lyrics - Free Your Mind

En Vogue - Free Your Mind

Prejudice, wrote a song about it
Like to hear it? Here it go
Free your mind

I wear tight clothing, high heel shoes
It doesn't mean that I'm a prostitute, no, no
I like rap music, wear hip hop clothes
That doesn't mean that I'm out sellin' dope, no, no, no
Oh my, forgive me for having straight hair, no
It doesn't mean there's another blood in my heir, yeah, yeah
I might date another race or color
It doesn't mean I don't like my strong black brothers

(Mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da)
Why oh why must it be this way?
(Mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da)
Before you can read me, you've got to learn how to see me, I said
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, ooh
So why dispute me and waste my time?
Because you really think the price is high for me
I can't look without being watched, no
You rang my buy before I made up my mind, ow
Oh, now attitude, why even bother?
I can't change your mind, you can't change my color

(Mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da)
Why oh why must it be this way?
(Mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da)
Before you can read me, you've got to learn how to see me, I said
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 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

(Mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da, mmm-da)
Why oh why must it be this way?
Before you can read me, you've got to learn how to see me, I said
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 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
