Mahogany mahogany

Mahogany mahogany/my skin/they flogging me/ wondering what I did/anger over my skin/mahogany mahogany/stepped outside with my bb gun/pow pow/they no longer flogging me/hatred still following me/and I'm only a kid/mahogany mahogany/my skin/like a mechanical pencil/they no longer flogging me/ mahogany mahogany/ the color of my casket/wondering what I did/murdered because of my skin/mahogany mahogany
