[Verse 1: Masego]
We done earned the right to floss a bit
We been running, beaten, talked down 'cause our skin
I done shined, shined bright through the hate
I'm a king, she a queen, they all know we great
I know you a fan, oh, you want my style?
Can you rock a pain chain? Can you rock my sorrows?
I know their afraid 'cause I'm educated
Yeah, yeah, you're looking at greatness

[Chorus: Masego]
I'm Melanin Man
No, no, no that ain't a tan, yeah
Ooh, I see that you're a fan, oh, yeah, yeah
My heritage is your new trend, yeah
Na, na, na, na, na
There they go, they so fly, ooh
Melanin Man
Oh, no, no that's not a tan, yes
I can see you a fan, yeah, oh
My culture is your new trend
I said, the Melanin Man
Nah, nah, nah that ain't a tan, yeah
I see, I see you a fan, oh (You's a fan, you's a fan)
My culture is your new trend, ooh
There they go, they just fly
[Verse 2: Masego]
I love the way I feel when I see my brethren with me
They shine, see, can you see, can you see, can you see them shine?
I love when I see my lady shine, my queen stays shinin'
They shine, they shine, they shine (They shine, they shine, they shine, they shine)
Oh, oh
Yeah

[Chorus: Masego]
Melanin Man
Na, na, na, na, that's not a tan, yeah
I can see you a fan, oh, yeah
My culture is your new trend, yeah
I am, I am Melanin Man, ooh
No, no, no that's not a tan, yeah
I can see you a fan, oh
My culture is your new trend, yeah

[Outro: Masego]
