[Verse 1]
Which way is up
On a sphere
Moving fast
I can feel
That's why I'm ill
White or black
Why is that
It sets you back
Like the price
Of YSL
Ls in the air

[Chorus]
Are you really sure of all your facts?
The ancient artifacts
The truth in white and black
What if this whole world is just a trap
A treasure on a map
You chased can't get back
It's so

[Post-Chorus]
Kuro to shiro
So
[Verse 2]
The Up and down
Could Fuck around
And get you strong
I got a pound
Let's work it out
Cloud in the air
Day is night
Night is day
They don't know what
The fuck they talkin' bout
Or what they're tryna say
They saying you should be afraid

[Chorus]
But are you really sure of all your facts?
The ancient artifacts
The truth in white & black
What if this whole world is just a crash
Course in gettin' back
To where the colors match?
It's so

[Post-Chorus]
Kuro to shiro
So
Kuro to shiro
[Verse 3: Common]
Here’s the picture, developed in a dark room
They say the world is soon to be a monsoon
In my mom’s room, the pictures are black and white
Family members, I might see in the after life
They say rob, you tryna live that pastor’s life
Spreadin’ the good word, makin’ sure the cash is right
Nah, my life is more Cassius like, sacrifice on parliament flash lights
Neon lights, it’s more than a black thing and beyond white
I say the things that the eons might
If they could, like even if you havin’ a day then that’s good
I stand for the misunderstood and those that been through the mud
The dirt, the swept under the rug
The n***a that’s been in love and ain’t afraid to admit it
The one who ain’t with the mother but they committed to the children
They came from the bricks but are still building
They ain’t have a meal, now I’m getting millions
Now, the willing, the able, the still stealing cable
Lookin’ at life and could see us interracial
‘Cause everything we see ain’t just black and white
More like God in the beginning, "there was light"
