Blackness by Tola Lyrics
I'm sorry did my blackness bother you
Were we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
I'm sorry did my blackness bother you
Was we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
Just a nappy headed nigga, guess that's how they see me
You need to take your ass outside, take your eyes off that TV
I realize that you hate me but the same time wanna be me
That's a lie, you really hate yourself so truth be told you need me
Am I too blame
For your misfortunes and goals you can't attain
Am I insane to complain when you profit off my pain
You don't flinch, out in Flint poison pouring out the drains
We supposed to be United don't you drag me off this plane
See the way they beat down Rodney, they don't want you to be KING
Used to have them boys in chains
So of course they off the chain
Tell me, what's the difference between crack and cocaine
I'll tell you what's the difference not a motherfucking thing
I'm sorry did my blackness bother you
Were we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
I'm sorry did my blackness bother you
Was we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
Now that you hear that a nigga talk nice
You wanna act like you is polite
But just 12 seconds ago, you was tryna call the po-lice
I been dealing with this for my whole life
So I done got numb
But America we gotta get this shit right
For my unborn son
Cause when Bobby get an AR its protection, it's his right
Let lil homie get a pistol they swear he ain't worth a life
Or they wanna serve him life
Mugshot on the TV got him looking extra trife
Meanwhile Brock Turner free to roam the streets at night
I'm sorry did my blackness bother you
Were we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
I'm sorry did my blackness bother you
Was we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
Now, imagine
That the aliens invaded
And came to fuck shit up (Fuck it up)
Would the black panthers and KKK be OK to clique up
Would republicans and democrats put differences aside
If we had a common enemy to narrow our divide
Or would they laugh at us and blast at us while we argue and bicker
The funniest and saddest part is to them we all niggers
To them we all niggers
To them we all niggers
The funniest and saddest part is to them we all niggers
Were we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
I'm sorry did my blackness bother you
Was we too loud at the bar-be-cue
Did my dark skin make you uncomfortable
Is that why you re-act the way you do
Just a nappy headed nigga, guess that's how they see me
You need to take your ass outside, take your eyes off that TV
I realize that you hate me but the same time wanna be me
That's a lie, you really hate yourself so truth be told you need me
Am I too blame
For your misfortunes and goals you can't attain
Am I insane to complain when you profit off my pain
You don't flinch, out in Flint poison pouring out the drains
We supposed to be United don't you drag me off this plane
