One Drop Rules
All black, all white she can't see grey
All black, all white she can't see shades
Halfroon
Quadroon
Octaroon
Spades
Hip hop don't stop for one drop rules
She be thinking all rap is gangsta rap
She be thinking all black is gangsta black
Halfroon
Quadroon
Octaroon
Coons
Hip hop don't stop for one drop rules
Can I drop some knowledge before I drop this mic
What's the difficulty setting in the role-playing game of your life
See, hip-hop don't stop for one drop of one percent
Code switching paper bag testing your way into hypodescent
High yellowin' low melanin mad Benjamins but still no clout
We all fall down but who stays down for the count
It ain't about money, that ain't all what I'm talking 'bout
Privilege begins with the benefit of the doubt
Hip hop don't stop for one drop rules
All black, all white she can't see shades
Halfroon
Quadroon
Octaroon
Spades
Hip hop don't stop for one drop rules
She be thinking all rap is gangsta rap
She be thinking all black is gangsta black
Halfroon

Hip hop don't stop for one drop rules
Can I drop some knowledge before I drop this mic
What's the difficulty setting in the role-playing game of your life
See, hip-hop don't stop for one drop of one percent
Code switching paper bag testing your way into hypodescent
High yellowin' low melanin mad Benjamins but still no clout
We all fall down but who stays down for the count
It ain't about money, that ain't all what I'm talking 'bout
Privilege begins with the benefit of the doubt
Hip hop don't stop for one drop rules
