[Verse 1]
I used to feel like, everywhere I'm the same
I didn't know then what I know now
A race is just a game

I used to feel like, everywhere I'm the same
I didn't know then what I know now
A race is just a game

Brother brace yourself 'cause you will need time
Wrap it in your mind 'cause you'll never be the same again
Go negro go find yourself go go kneel down go kiss that ground
Cause nothing's gonna really change

[Chorus]
When shit gets deep in the bottom deep in the bottom
Deep in thе bottom
You can't go deeper than the bottom
They gеts deep in the bottom
Deep in the bottom (Can't get no deeper)
Than the bottom of Africa
Oh oh oh (It don't get deeper)
Oh oh oh (Can't get no deeper than the bottom)

[Verse 2]
In go negro orphan child, go sing your song
Go get things right, get things wrong
Everything's about to change
Racing races out of breath, go pace your steps
Make a social life, out of social death, everything changes
He said go look, look, look in the mirror and see
Look at you, sister look at me, are we really just the same?
I told him I was Black, Black, Black as coffee with no cream, see
Africans be knowing who I be and nothings ever been the same

[Chorus]
Oh you better get deep in the bottom
Deep in the bottom (Can't get no deeper than the bottom)
You got to get deep in the bottom
Deep in the bottom (Can't get no deeper than the bottom)
Of Africa, oh oh oh (It don't get deeper)
Oh oh oh (It don't get deeper)
Oh oh oh (It don't get deeper)

[Outro]
I used to feel like everywhere I'm the same
I didn't know then what I know now
A race is just a game

Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep

Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep

Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep

Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
Shit gets deep, shit gets deep
