Lyrics:
The pain I feel I can't muscle to sleep
The waves in these waters are crashing into me
If I'm color brave do I show my cap?
The kryptonite to black men is America's hate
If I look you in your face
Even your tears seem fake
With white privilege tissue
You can't wipe away these mistakes
If you ready to have this conversation
You better come correct
This land is my land show some respect
And I know we ain't the only ones
But when you shoot to practice
The white sheet is a black man you attacking

Scared of the color of my skin
When I speak you hear
I'm Dope, I'm dope

Black to the fullest
Purest of the feeling, yeah
I'm dope, I'm dope

Kneel on our neck
Take our breath In light to see
We dope, we dope

Back up a minute
Let me take a breath
My man George murdered to his death
No respect for a blackface
You hate what one God creates
I can't believe I breathe the same air as these snakes
The bitter taste slap the black in their face
Ain't no more quarantine racism
Now you see every black man a victim
Modern-day lynching
See a feen crack in this crooked system
White man privilege
Keep ya social distance
Today I see you look at me different
If anger was a weapon I'm killin' all you *$%^#@
Who am I
If you don't see it on tape
Think you know the pain
37 years in these veins
Now you need ya diaper changed
Can't babysit America's shame
Taught to hate us with a devil's hope
I'm a kneel on this flag kinda
Kapernick dope
