It explores Lil B's condemnations and criticisms of "police brutality, beauty standards found on magazine covers, and the knot-in-stomach self-loathing that he sees as an intentional media construct," The lyrics, which touch upon "how far the media has to go in its representations of African-American people in pop culture," alternate between his "black power declarations and his appeals for global solidarity against racism, rape, and all such violence." The song delivers its a positive message through its hook: "No black person is ugly, don’t say it one time."
