You do not even understand the significance of your skin color You know, people always want to talk about oh it's not about race Look man, really Ooohhh aye Talkin' power in tradition, so you gotta sit My people bleedin' till this day, that ain't it They took over my land and it still got me pissed My people cryin' for help, yeah that's on the list People dyin' everyday and you flexin' on your wrist I be speakin' on the truth, so they might put out a hit They try washin' all their sins When they get rich, said they gon' help my people up But they switched Back home, they workin blood, sweat and tears, you want drip Where I'm from, they still walkin' round Don't got a whip, lotta trauma for my people When they hear the word whips Talkin' down on my people, I'ma turn this to a blitz Where I'm from, it's daylight, they hit licks Where I'm from, it's daylight, they send hits Where I'm from, they don't talk, they use sticks But they gon' show you love, no matter how hard it gets Woah, woah, yeah, yeah, woah I dropped back in back in back in 93 Tryna figure out my place in this life and what it means I was raised privileged, but I kept my ear to the streets Slumdog millionaire, the type of shit you see in the movies Packed our bags, moved abroad, age 12, I'm overseas I was tryna fit in so much, I was really losin' me I was actin' gangster, livin' in denial, it was deep I was callin' women bitches, thinkin' it was really me If you understood who you were from the beginning Oh man, it changes everything I wanna share something that this, this girl told me once It goes something like this You don't know who you are and it really shows You're gonna fail if you don't take control God has a plan for you, follow the way Life takes its time, you just gotta have faith yeah yeah Runnin', runnin' through my past now I was such a class clown, always entertainin' yeah They were bullying me cause I was brown Turned them all into my fans now They screamin', they shoutin', they want Truelove now To think at one time I didn't know who I was I was losin' myself, I couldn't find my feet Then Harry came through and he planted that seed Runnin', runnin', runnin', I was runnin' away I was runnin' from myself and my ways Losin' my culture Then I woke up and I asked who the f*ck is William now Always lookin' for, always searchin' for My culture strong, can't let it go Always want some more, always want some more Can't let it go, no, no, no, no, no When you understand just what that melanin That brownness of your skin actually means It's beautiful, it really is And it's so important that we understand Who exactly we are
