I used to hump my pillow at night.[00:05:24]

The type of silent prayer to help myself prepare for the light.[00:05:24]

Me and my cousin Duce would rank the girls between one and ten[00:05:24]

and the highest number got to be my pillows pretend.[00:05:24]

Now I apologize to every high ranker.[00:05:24]

But you taught me how to dream and so I also thank you.[00:05:24]

I never had the courage to approach you at school.[00:05:24]

We joked around a lot and I know you thought I dressed cool.[00:05:24]

But I was just covering up all the insecurities that came bubbling up.[00:05:24]

My complexion had[00:05:24]

me stuck in an emotional rut, 'like the [00:05:24]

time you Flavor Flaved me and you called me[00:05:24]

Yo Chuck, they say[00:05:24]

you're too black, man.[00:05:24]

I think I'm too black.[00:05:24]

Mom, do you think I'm too black? I think I'm too black.[00:05:24]

Black Stacey.[00:05:24]

They called me Black Stacey.[00:05:24]

I never got to be myself 'cause to[00:05:24]

myself I always was Black Stacey, in polka dots[00:05:24]

and paisley, a double goose[00:05:24]

and bally shoes, you thought it wouldn't phase me.[00:05:24]

I was Black Stacey.[00:05:24]

the preachers' son from Haiti[00:05:24]

who rhymed a lot and always got the dance steps at the party.[00:05:24]

I was Black Stacey.[00:05:24]

you thought it wouldn't faze me, but it did [00:05:24]

'cause I was just a kid.[00:05:24]

I used to use bleaching creme, 'til [00:05:24]

Madame CJ Walker walked into my dreams.[00:05:24]

I dreamt of being white and[00:05:24]

complimented by you, but the only shiny [00:05:24]

black thing that you liked was my shoes.[00:05:24]

Now, I apologize for bottling up[00:05:24]

all the little things you said that warped my head and my gut.[00:05:24]

Even though I always told you not to[00:05:24]

brag about the fact that your great grand[00:05:24]

mother was raped by her slave master. Yeah, I became[00:05:24]

militant too.[00:05:24]

So it was clear on every level I was blacker than you.[00:05:24]

I turned you on to Malcolm X and[00:05:24]

Assata Shakur in my three quarter elephant goose with the fur.[00:05:24]

I had the high top fade[00:05:24]

with the steps on the side.[00:05:24]

I had the two finger ring, rag top on the ride.[00:05:24]

I had the sheep skin, name[00:05:24]

belt, Lee suit, Kangol, acid wash, Roscoe's chicken and waffle.[00:05:24]

Black Stacey.[00:05:24]

They called me Black Stacey.[00:05:24]

I never got to be myself 'cause to myself I always was Black Stacey, in polka dots[00:05:24]

and paisley, a double goose and bally shoes, you thought it wouldn't phase me.[00:05:24]

I was Black Stacey. the preachers'[00:05:24]

son from Haiti who[00:05:24]

rhymed a lot and always got the dance steps at the party.[00:05:24]

I was Black Stacey.[00:05:24]

You thought it wouldn't faze me, but it did 'cause I was just a kid.[00:05:24]

Now here's a little[00:05:24]

message for you.[00:05:24]

All you baller playa's got[00:05:24]

some insecurities too, that you could cover up, bling it up, cash in[00:05:24]

and ching ching it up, hope no[00:05:24]

one will bring it up, lock it down and string it up.[00:05:24]

Or you can share your essence with us, 'cause everything about you couldn't be rugged[00:05:24]

and ruff.[00:05:24]

And even though you tote a[00:05:24]

glock and you're hot on the[00:05:24]

streets, if you dare to share your heart, we'll nod our heads to[00:05:24]

its beat.[00:05:24]

And you should do that, if nothing else, to prove[00:05:24]

that a player like you could keep it honest and true. Don't mean to call your bluff but[00:05:24]

mothaf**ka that's what I do.[00:05:24]

You got platinum chain[00:05:24]

then, son, I'm probably talking to you.[00:05:24]

And you can call your gang, your posse and the rest of your crew.[00:05:24]

And while you're at it get them addicts and the indigent too. I plan to have a whole army[00:05:24]

by the time that I'm through to load their guns with songs they haven't sung.[00:05:24]
