(Verse 1)
Don't get me started on the topic of race
Cause to be honest with you I ain't even tryna debate
Before you judge someone get to know their content and see
If you got a problem with that you've got a problem with me
Cause even when you compliment it's kinda like disses
Comin' from a place of ignorance and I don't like biggets
I can't sit back in a private bliss
I'd rather die for this then let gimmicks lie to kids
To deny what is truth would make no kind of sense
That's the kind of lies that cause a child's mind to twist
Even the Underground Railroad revised the facts
Cause not that many white folks died for blacks
So I could never understand their struggle to get free
But upsets even if it doesn't affect me
Regrettably the shit was never fair
Because injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere
(Verse 2)
Yo I'm comin' back with that yeah it's me on the mic voice
While most go he's pretty nasty for a white boy
Then I'm like nah your Mom's mouth's nasty
And I don't care if you're green, you can't outrap me
But that could be determined later on a bad day
And I'd prefer it if you didn't label me that way
And would think that you would want the same
Yet on another's where we tend to place all our blame
To this day, can't escape the slave trade
Which only translates to The Hate That Hate Made
Creating a dangerous place to safe face
It's generational so now the anger's shame based
But all of you can go and kick rocks in unity
Cause you don't speak for me or the Hip Hop community
So now the voice of the struggles gonna double
With every single interracial couple ya'll in trouble
But as a white rapper I don't fit my crowd
And can see it through both sides from the inside out
So to quote Ras Kass cause I need to
"I don't like stupid ass black or white people quite equal"
(Verse 3)
Yo it seems to me that our federation is losin' sight
With an agenda for devastation to ruin life
So that's why it's segregation that we choose to fight
And for the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
But in order to propel the movement
We need improvement from myself included
Prevent stress as I bless the beat
And not live in excess so the rest can eat
Which may mean it's a loss for them
With no maids and mowin' their own lawns again
Cause I've done quote on quote "Mexican work"
And was treated as a slave just like the rest of them were
So if you're still celebrating Christopher Columbus
Then you're the definition of what ignorant and dumb is
Matter of fact I give permission to slap
Cause racists shouldn't be allowed to listen to rap
Or play in fantasy leagues or watch sports
And if you then it should only be on the golf course
Just admit that you're a fan and stand true
Instead of hatin' on those who do what you can't do
Cause if you knew the truth you'd be a student in awe
So you shouldn't be able to listen to music at all
Except Country, you chumps can keep that
But no Blues, Jazz, Rap, Funk, or beat claps
Cause really whites stole Rock n Roll
From copying Rhythm and Blues but forgot the Soul
So I'ma quote Edo G cause I need to
"You love black culture but hate black people"
