"They may try to erase my face...." The lyrics are so powerful if you can see past your own judgments. Think outside the box people. Stop judging and listen to whats being said. Stop being freakin' robots there is power in numbers. The higher powers that be try to divide us with programming. Turn off the tv and wake up sheeple.
I went to her show last Tuesday and she was late and some very rude people in the crowd screamed "YOU'RE LATE APOLOGIZE" -_-. She said "it took a while for me to get on stage, let me tell you what I was doing" and she performed this song. She's so real.
the first Youtube video i've seen with NO dislikes... god, i love Erykah Badu <3

Love Erykah Badu for being so honest about herself. This type of song is such a gift...validation for a woman like myself. Gorgeous music as well.
