Oreos
Rejjie Snow Lyrics

We want that cocaine (oh, what do we want?)
We desire the thrill and excitement of cocaine, what is it that we truly desire?

We want that cocaine (yeah, what do we need?)
We crave the effects and dependency of cocaine, what is it that we actually need?

We want that cocaine (give it to me)
We plead for the immediate access to cocaine, please provide it to us.

We want that cocaine (stop playing)
We demand an end to the delay and hesitation, please stop fooling around.

Be free with the ones you know and I
Feel liberated and open with the people you are familiar with, and I...

Might jump and hop the rope and I
Perhaps I will take risks and overcome obstacles, and I...

Might crash and I might be all you like
I might suffer failures and disappointments, and still be everything you desire.

Do not die, I might be yours tonight
Do not give up hope, I might belong to you tonight.

No more shows these flows is all I like
No more performances, I solely enjoy these styles of expression.

Please don't crash from the stage, deserve a fright
Please do not collapse while performing, I deserve to be startled.

Took the heart from sleeve, oh please
I removed my vulnerability, oh please understand.

What you know about me? When I stop you'll bleed (uh)
What do you truly understand about me? Your pain will be evident when I cease to exist.

When I fly I might be free tonight
When I achieve success, I might finally experience freedom tonight.

I might, I might, I will coincide
There is a possibility, a chance that I will align and synchronize.

They stuck me with the book and hands of God, Eli
They bound me with religious scripture and divine authority, Eli.

Far from the words to own the rights
Distant from the words that grant ownership and control.

Not me, not me, not me, I'll stand right there
It's not me, not me, not me, but I will remain steadfast in that position.

Where the birds fly free (birds fly free)
Where the birds soar without constraint, freedom is prevalent.

No fucks when I gave you all of mine
I showed complete disregard when I gave you all of my care and concern.

Don't be dumb, I'm insecure and quiet
Do not be naive, I am riddled with insecurity and maintain a reserved demeanor.

These hands talk, I'll beat you black and white
These hands relay messages through actions, I will defeat you unequivocally.

Don't be shy, I'll be years ahead if I
Do not be hesitant, I will be far ahead in time if I...

All your dough on the blow, oh no
You spend all your money on cocaine, what a disastrous choice.

What the fuck you on? Aw yeah, I'm gone
What drugs are you under the influence of? Oh yes, I am completely out of touch.

I seen you double multiply
I witnessed your exponential growth and expansion.

Add these words for you and mama I
Include these words for you and mother, I am addressing both.

Will not fight for Salem, prophesize
I will not engage in a battle for Salem, but I will predict future events.

Two big chunks of sweetness, cherry pie
Two substantial elements of pleasure, reminiscent of cherry pie.

Fuck your songs, I'm born to lead the fight
Disregard your meaningless songs, I am destined to take the lead in the battle.

This new born, will surely testify
This recently created entity will undoubtedly bear witness.

I promise to abide your rights
I assure you that I will conform to and respect your rights.

I will cure the human plight to bite
I will remedy the human struggle to harm and inflict pain.

My style's me not yours, you always try
My style is a reflection of my true self, not yours, yet you consistently attempt to imitate.

Deface them and modern genocide
Alter them and initiate a contemporary form of mass destruction.

I hope that the white girl you love frees you
I wish that the white girl you are infatuated with liberates you from your constraints.

I lust see God, I just
I have an intense desire to witness God, I just...

(Fuck, man) uh-huh
Expressing frustration and agreement, uh-huh.

Cocaine is a hell of a drug
Cocaine possesses a powerful and addictive nature.

We've been whitewashed
We have been culturally and socially influenced by white norms and values.

Condition, positions of power shifted
Conditioned to accept and adapt to changed power dynamics.

Straight curl, girl
Conflicting sensations, emotions, or traits, girl.

I get lifted when I think about you
I experience euphoria and elation when thoughts of you occupy my mind.

The image in the mirror blows my high
The reflection in the mirror diminishes my euphoric state.

'Cause she ain't as pretty as you
Because she does not possess the same level of beauty as you.

See what they done gone and made me do
Observe the actions that they have unintentionally compelled me to take.

I done got me thinking, "Damn, why I think like that?"
I find myself contemplating, questioning why I have these thoughts.

Maybe because my black has been bullied by hard times
Perhaps it is because my black identity has been oppressed and mistreated by difficult circumstances.

Liquid lies, a viscous veil has been stitched to my eyes
Deceptive falsehoods, a thick and sticky cover has been sewn over my vision.

These thoughts rule me
These thoughts govern and control me.

I gotta fight to see my own beauty
I must struggle to recognize and appreciate my own beauty.

Tall, dark, and melenated, forever hated
Being tall, dark-skinned, and of melanin, I am perpetually despised.

Me and my lady, my women, but you
Me and my partner, my women, but you...

Oh, I know you
Ah, I am familiar with you.

From every image they shown me of you
Based on every image of you that they have presented to me.

Magazines are televised
Magazines are displayed on television, influencing popular culture.

They painted you to be the most divine
They portrayed you as the most heavenly and perfect.

Straight hair, long thighs
Straight hair, extended thighs.

Take a little off, get me more high
Remove a small portion, and it intensifies my high.

They got me addicted to you, I need another hit of you
They have gotten me hooked on you, I long for another dose of you.

A taste, me and my race, at least the ones who can't get the chains off
A sample, me and my people, especially those who cannot break free from oppression.

Pain got us lost, no home to identify with
Pain has caused us to lose our way, without a sense of belonging or connection.

Maybe that's why I'm finding that
Perhaps that is the reason why I am discovering that...

Our opposites attract, subtract from my culture
Our contrasting qualities draw us together, but they diminish my cultural identity.

The timing is blinded, all I see is your light
The timing is obscured, all I perceive is your brilliance.

Your white, that cocaine, ain't a game
Your whiteness, akin to cocaine, is not a trivial matter.

I need a bump of your skin, light skin
I yearn for a boost from your fair skin, light skin.

Your love is my drug, the look is my hook
Your love is addictive to me, the gaze is what captivates and ensnares me.

Your lust is my dust, you got me twisted
Your intense desire intoxicates me, you have left me perplexed and disoriented.

My beautiful brown future was standing right over there
My promising future, as a person of color, was within reach just over yonder.

But walking with you, I missed it
However, while being involved with you, I failed to grasp it.

The whole world missed it
The entire world failed to recognize and appreciate it.

Legacies no longer existed, black seed, enlisted
Legacies have vanished, black heritage and lineage have been conscripted.

The war is mystic, lady 'caine
The battle is enigmatic, mistress cocaine.

We want that cocaine (old lady 'caine) (oh, what do we want?)
We desire cocaine, the alluring and destructive substance. What is it that we truly want?

We want that cocaine (lady 'caine) (yeah, what do we need?)
We crave the addictive and compelling nature of cocaine. What is it that we actually need?

We want that cocaine (you got me) (ooh, give it to me)
We are desperate for cocaine, it has captured us completely. Please provide it to us.

We want that cocaine (twisted) (ooh, stop playing)
We demand cocaine, it has left us in a state of confusion and distortion. Please stop delaying.

We want that cocaine (cocaine is a hell of a drug) (yeah, what do we want?)
We desire cocaine, recognizing its potent and addictive qualities. What is it that we truly want?

We want that cocaine (mmh, what do we need?)
We crave the euphoric effects and dependency of cocaine. What is it that we actually need?

We want that cocaine (ooh)
We desire cocaine intensely.

We want that cocaine (Rejjie Snow)
We are longing for cocaine, expressed by Rejjie Snow.
