Pulled over again Roll windows down Begin to pray Hope those around won't look away Will a camera out Protect me from What feels like fate Or will injustice get its way? But wait That's not me My skin's my shield Protects from hate I am safe A system built for me Upholds my privilege And kills to stay this way Don't you ever say White privilege has gone away If you've never been afraid At a police stop Where you do exactly as they say Pleading "don't shoot" as you obey But wait That's not me My skin's my shield Protects from hate I am safe A system built for me Upholds my privilege And kills to stay this way I'm so upset again Rage and tears Are on my face What will I do to make a change? How long? How long must we sing this song? Lamenting evil here to stay But wait I can't just sing Must use this shield And stand in hatred's way Cannot play safe Attack a system built for me Abhor my privilege Kill ignorance and hate Pulled over again Roll windows down Begin to pray Hope those around won't look away
