One day I'll be an old white man Well, oh damn I'll be saying old white things With the occasional old white rant One day I'll be an old white man Like my old white man And all his old white friends Judged by my old white skin One day I'll be an old white man With old white money in the bank Thriving in an old white branch Self-made off a couple hundred grands One day I'll be an old white man Pulling up in an all white Benz With a hot young chick on my old white wang Like I give an old white damn You're looking at false sympathy, the embodiment White supremacy, a monument Small dick energy, f*ck everything A whole identity based on what they're gonna think Cause one day I'll inevitably be everything I ain't But that is not my destiny, that is not my fate I just shame a celebrity, and then I feel okay I hear they're done with the patriarchy So I claim feminist hoping to impress a bitch Only cat call her if I can tell she's into it Straight, white male aware of my privilege Just ask the African children on my Tinder pics So what if I never did charity? Or made a donation without sharing it? That's for inspiration and to show solidarity And if you butt hurting, it's cause I'm a better person than you'll ever be I'm just trynna see your awareness grow By any memes necessary, yo And if I don't act, it's cause I have been doing a lot of thinking So don't give me no mainstream media facts Matter of fact, f*ck the radio, f*ck Eminem, and f*ck Macklemore F*ck everything that make em think I don't respect black culture though F*ck me when my black friend says he thought Stan was dope And I do too, but now I can't say that no mo' But hey, ya know, I love Kendrick Plus I saw that "I'm not racist" video, and now I get it Even showed it to my family and debated it all for like seven whole minutes And you don't have to praise me, though I would accept it I'm so fucking reflected I rant when they pull me over for speeding and don't give me a ticket Meaning I thank the officer and don't resist it But I can't let it go by without feeling offended Thinking it woulda been different, if I had had different skin And don't tell me I'm tripping cause I've seen it firsthand I was out with my friend, and the bouncer wouldn't let him in To join the party with me and the rest of the gang So when we went back to dancing, we were thinking bout him Now, it'll probably be a week before we can have fun again Nobody even intervened while I was getting it on cam Man, I swear these people, they never did give a damn But we stay woke, sedated in weed smoke Circle jerking over all the things that we know We're all worth the same, but we just better people Cause we call for change as long as it's free though Make sure they know my race when I call the cops Make sure they know I hate em when they showing up Make sure you know I'm brave cause I told em off And make sure I'm throwing shade when you don't post enough Black out Tuesday, all these black squares But look in the streets, it's only blacks there Protests for peace, that's what I'll have, yeah So I take a selfie and leave, I did my fair share But let me know when we looting, I need my fair share I got me some white Jordans, I need a black pair Felt right till I was talking to the cashier of that same black-owned business Should I perhaps give this back here? Nah, I mean I would, but say what if I become why they believe good white people don't exist? Sometimes I think I'm the only one there is So if I'm suddenly not, then how may that persist? I guess I got a savior complex Trynna save myself from the same blame I project I ain't no compensator, and I ain't no no narcissist But just tell me I'm your hero so they can never say I'm less Cause one day I'll be an old white man I hope some things will have changed by then If not, I'm the cause of everything Not much I can do, but I do what I can One day I'll be an old white man Prolly at somebody's expense I already see the blood on my hands I might go ahead and say sorry in advance One day I'll be an old white man Right, here we go again I refuse to feel ashamed of who I am But if I am who they say, then I do understand Cause one day I'll be an old white man To sum up my whole life span But I'll know where I stand I'll know (Know, know) Walt Disney when I draw a glock Hit the Trump Tower, and I promise you'll see Donald duck My shit is usually goofy, but this time it's not I know they looking to shoot me when the cameras off Sup, yelling power corrupts Powerless to the conviction that we should power up Amidst running this resistance right into a power plug Everybody's tripping, yeah we bound to see some bodies drop Trynna be the last man standing Unless it's for the national anthem So while the truth cause a national tantrum My natural reaction is to hand em more facts And watch em snap so I can clap back at em Ranting all lives matter is why all lives shatter I'd prolly be offended, if I was a lil blacker And misrepresented by a Fox News anchor We ain't got all the answers, but we got all the data As a kid, I'll admit I had a wish to be black Without getting harassed or the cops killing my ass All that the media twists or we are just looking past With the main matter being saying in my raps Coming up on ebonics and YouTube comments Confronted with the privilege to do nothing Either you're too oblivious, or you're too conscious But I've been wanting to do prove some Since I was bumping Good Kid, Maad City Trynna be the first white Black Hippy I was 17, and I rapped shitty Cooking up beats in the class with the headphones on Some damn pity, but this lil cracker had a crack, did he not? They say I'm too serious, they cracking me up I say they too scared of this, so back the f*ck off I don't have to be cherished, I don't have to be loved I just have to give a f*ck for some So when do I speak? When do I follow, when do I lead? When do I swallow pride or wear it on my sleeve? When do I riot or call the police? When do I fight, when do I opt for peace? When do I choose a side or objectivity? Arrive at conclusion or continue to seek? When do I realize that it all starts with me?
