Too white for the blacks Too black for the white kids They thinking that I'm soft Cause they see that I'm lighskin Expected some Ebonics When they hearing me talk They don't like my pants sagging When they seeing me walk Too white for the blacks Too black for the white kids Assuming I ain't black They don't know how my life is My pigment got em thinking I ain't POC But what a white man sees is the nigga in me They shocked when I be speaking Got my vocab right They expect me to be tweaking And go smoke that Pipe I be saying and repeating That I don't have rights They call me white washed thinking I don't know that life You be questioning my background Call my hair nappy But you wanna cop a weave And Suddenly wanna be black now My race is deprecated just to Get exploited You wanna criticize or copy Better Pick your poison I don't comprehend your vision You wanna live the life But you don't want the consequences You have the luxury of getting certain job positions You're less likely to be getting shot or locked in prison And be wrongfully convicted Go ahead Prove me wrong I ain't on the same Level you be on I ain't what you ever think Or what you expect I'm just me They define me by the skin I possess Too white for the blacks Too black for the white kids They thinking that I'm soft Cause they see that I'm lighskin Expected some Ebonics When they hearing me talk They don't like my pants sagging When they seeing me walk Too white for the blacks Too black for the white kids Assuming I ain't black They don't know how my life is My pigment got em thinking I ain't POC But what a white man sees is the nigga in me Likely to get the sack Cuz I'm P O C Most likely be on my back Cuz of C O P's As black as you I don't need the attitude And bigotry Still a nigga even when I'm talking to you Civilly Silly me I should really fit the mold I should blow my bread at the club and the liquor store Sag my pants really low Get a mouth full of gold Just so that example of a black man Really shows Show em who I am I don't show em what they think Only person I be acting like is me And the image that you have you can keep I'm not a product of what other people think I shake my dreads Don't steal I make my bread I don't act hood And sometimes I taste backwood And I don't care What you think that Makes you scared I will be me Take yo fake ass somewhere Too white for the blacks Too black for the white kids They thinking that I'm soft Cause they see that I'm lighskin Expected some Ebonics When they hearing me talk They don't like my pants sagging When they seeing me walk Too white for the blacks Too black for the white kids Assuming I ain't black They don't know how my life is My pigment got em thinking I ain't POC But what a white man sees is the nigga in me
