I know my pigment and my name contradict themselves
And I know I can't be Black cause it's just a Fact
That I don't got history like my brothers have
But then I got the privilege?
Man, how screwed up is that?
And I don't think that's fair at all, man
God is crying if you listen, He's so very hurt, man
Why is that something that people commonly know
Being given the feeling that they don't belong
Oh why, oh why
Am I so blind?
Oh why , oh why
Am I so quiet?
Oh why, oh why
Is there someone with my name
Being beaten to the frame
Fighting just to be treated the same?
Believe it or not, but when I was 3 years young
Looked at a photograph of my friends and I
That was the first time I realized my melanin was different
So innocent to the fact that a few years on in my life
I'd be walking down a street at 2am at Notre-Dame
A cop would see me, ask me how I am and that's just just grand
But why'd my friend get beat in Amsterdam
For walking to the shop at 2pm with empty hands?
Oh why, oh why
Am I so blind?
Oh why , oh why
Am I so quiet?
Oh why, oh why
Is there someone with my name
Being beaten to the frame
Fighting just to be treated the same?
Listen don't speak
Speak don't shout
But when it's your time to shout
You shout out loud
And you scream at the top of your lungs
This is wrong!
Listen don't speak
Speak don't shout
But when it's your time to shout
You shout out loud
And you scream at the top of your lungs
This is not what we stand for!
Listen don't speak
Speak don't shout
But when it's your time to shout
You shout out loud
And you scream at the top of your lungs
This is wrong!
Listen don't speak
Speak don't shout
But when it's your time to shout
You shout out loud
And you scream at the top of your lungs
This is not what we stand for!
White, heterosexual, male identity
It's disgusting how I have more of a say in this community
But I'm gonna use all of my undeserved authority
To speak, nae shout into this lie of a tranquility
Oh why, oh why have I left it to this day?
Thought it wasn't my struggle, but I got a part to play
As an ally and a mate, an accomplice currently
But I wanna make that change
Yeah come on let's make that change yeah!
Why am I so blind? Tell me what you see
I've been feelin' the pressure, I'm looking for a release
Looking for some peace, but I got it on my knees
You don't die standing if you're crawling to your dreams
Why am I so quiet when they're lying through their teeth?
I only keep the people who take me for me
I've been loosing sleep, this dream sold was cheap
But I'm just another guy who's never heard when he speaks,
Preach!
Oh why, oh why
Am I so blind?
Oh why , oh why
Am I so quiet?
Oh why, oh why
Is there someone with my name
Being beaten to the frame
Fighting just to be treated the same?
