Lyrics
Yo, I got an idea
Let me run and grab Sticky right quick
Ayo, ayo, Sticky, Sticky
Yo, Slim Shady, man
Yo, I just had a nightmare
Well, it wasn't like a nightmare, it was like a good dream
Well, well, it wasn't a good
Yo, it wasn't?
I just had a crazy dream, man
What?
Yo, I dreamt I was white
Oh shit
If he was white, what if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
Yo, yo, what if I was white? Skin the same color as cocaine
With blonde hair and blue eyes, the whole shebang
I know one thing, police wouldn't always be watching me
Pull me over for nothin', constantly jockin' me
The yellow cabs in the city would stop for me
I wouldn't need collateral to buy property
If I was white, wouldn't matter if I was rich or poor
Security wouldn't follow me around the store
Like I'ma steal somethin', because I'm black I rob
And automatically assume I ain't got no job
Own my own land, feel like an immigrant
If I was white, I wouldn't have thought OJ was innocent
If I was white
If he was white, what if he was white?
What if he was white? (Yo, think about that
Shit for a minute) What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white, white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white? (What if he was white?)
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? (What if he were white?) What if he was
White, white, white, white, white, white, white, white, white?
If I was white, it'd be a different world for me
If I was white, hmm, what shade would I be?
Would I be redneck or skinhead? Preppy or high class?
You'd probably live in a trailer park and be white trash
In any case, that'd be the ill shit, right?
But there's a good and a bad side of being white
I can't say the n-word without startin' a fight (Oh my nigga)
Couldn't dance on beat, I had two left feet
Even if I was white, probably still have a ghetto chick
Is it a myth or would I really have a little kid?
If I was white, I'd probably listen to hard rock
And cover my ears whenever I heard hip-hop
If he was white, what if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
Yo, yo, yo, if I was white, I probably wouldn't even think the same
I'd watch tennis and golf and bet on hockey games
Wear suit and ties and go to work every day
If I was white, I couldn't live around my way
And there probably would've never even been an Onyx
Shit, I'd be somewhere sippin' vodka and tonics
Smokin' on a Marlboro instead of a Newport
I'd live in Long Island instead of New York
If I was white, I probably couldn't dunk
'Cause everybody know white men can't jump
And I probably wouldn't be able to go to the weed spot
'Cause all the dranks would think I'm a cop
If he was white, what if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white, white?
Yo, what if I was white? Hah
