America, the land of the free in need of some healing 
Sometimes I stop myself from thinking with only my feelings 
Unjustified killings expose a system broken 
Superficial slogans I'm tired of being a token
Shuttin' down voices in ya safe space is that fair
Silence seen as racist as long as you post a black square 
Race: an obsession we depend on psychologically 
Based on a concept so illogical ironically
Honestly make it make sense
Tense conversations watch someone take offense
My own existence is explained by slaves and slave owners
Stoking flames of racism I take heed of stakeholders
Angered by the oppressive forces of society
Hypocrites on all sides, of all varieties 
Jumping on the popular trends cuz that's where the fun is 
One day we'll see clearly the evidence of our oneness

Can y'all hear me
This my critical race theory
Can y'all hear me
This my critical race theory
Critical race theory

We focus on today thru the lens of back then
Some folks my age only know me as the black friend
See my color, I get it metaphorically
But closing ya eyes to racial differences means more to me
Don't colorblind yourself to what's going on, ya might miss it
Identity-based support groups tribalistic
Segregation nothing new far from radical 
After every election comes a four-year sabbatical
I'mma victim of the system is what they tell me
Doom and gloom headlines is what they sell me
That's how they keep the social issues polarized
Watch what news outlets do when these moments die
Melanin a fatally attractive fascination 
Imagine pigment of skin as figments of imagination
Validation is what we all in search of
Don't need to be of material value to be worth love

Can y'all hear me
This my critical race theory
Can y'all hear me
This my critical race theory
Critical race theory
