歌词
I don't know where to begin
They still hate me for the color of my skin
Everywhere I go they're looking at me like it's him
They still hate me for the color of my skin
I still try even though the odds are slim
They still hate me for the color of my skin
I really think they're jealous of my melanin
They still hate me for the color of my skin
Look I'm more ready than I've ever been
Alone on this tightrope steady peddling
Music's the healing of the soul like a medicine
So don't close it just let it in
I've forever been on this method thing
Vibrate like a silent tone on my mobile phone
When I let it ring
Like a venom sting through your blood like amphetamine
**** lose their soul on the road and let the devil in
But he can never win a real battle on the roadside
Cause the most high no one's better then
So you can stay small or stand tall like Mount Everest
Let them hear the roars from the war right through the crevices
Fly like a Pegasus high like a feather in the wind
Are they telling you a lie when they tell you they're your friends
Are you in it till you die or you trying to set a trend
Once you get into this life, then there really is no end
Can't front on being real no you really can't pretend
All that shit that you talk you best be ready to defend
Cause them hitters will be waiting and they're ready with the skeng
And they're plotting on your life trying to bring it to an end
One time for my brothers that are stuck up in the Penn
And every mother that won't get to see their son again
For every brother getting pulled for the color of his skin
And every black girl that didn't get a medal for the win
All because they hate the color of your skin
All them black girls smile let them see you grin
Yeah, black girl magic for the win
All my brothers keep your head up, your a king
Just stay blessed and keep doing your thing
Many years our people have been struggling
And held back for the color of our skin
