Race War

(album: The Brave II - 2023)

It's okay to be racist
As long as you hating on the Caucasians
Teaching White kids that their shades the same as school shooters and rapists
Maybe I ain't tripping cause the White children have been getting taught that they got White privilege
By the White guys in the high heels who identify as the White women
I'm not proud to be White but I'm fine with it
Guess I'm not allowed to have pride in it
Cause the colonizers and the White bigots
Made White history my business
I ain't never gonna give a damn if you like me
I ain't gonna trip when they stereotype me
I'm a White boy and a White boy like me
Knows that all lives matter, bite me
When I was younger they taught me to never see color
To treat every man as if he was my brother
But now that we're grown up we hate one another
For all of the ways that we struggle and suffer
They coming for blood and we're running for cover
The government wants us divided and dumber
Addicted and drunk in the gutter
So we never wake up and never recover

Call me culture vulture 'cause I rap good
I don't pop Xans or smoke backwoods
But they call me a wigger and label me Hitler
And hate like I am wearing a Klan hood
It ain't left or right or Black or White it's good and evil
Elite folks ain't normal people
United we stand and divided we fall
America, we got to get real
You were segregated, that was not fair
You were enslaved, they did not care
But you were never on a plantation
And my generation was not there
That's trauma in your DNA
Causing what we see today
I pray to God you staying strong
Don't wanna see no man in pain
Dear White folks, I'm embarrassed
Some of y'all are such Karens
That prejudice you inherited
Was racism from your parents
Get that poison out your veins
Whites and Blacks are all the same
They want us in our graves
Just let me try to explain

I swear they want us in a Race War
Dying everyday for
Whose lives matter more
Whoa
I won't be dying in the Race War
Our government is paid for
'Cause our lives matter more
Whoa

If you born Black, you lose
Might as well go get that noose
You gonna die before you 25
Get shot over your shoes
You gonna get killed by police
Even when you follow the rules
If you listen to the news
You gon' believe all this is true (True)
I ain't feeling no White guilt
They won't riot for me when I'm killed
I guess White lives don't matter
Sad, but that's the way that I feel
I feel like they feel like I don't know what they all call me
Cis White male, bigot, racist, he's a Nazi
That's not me, I'm not one of these white liberal commies
Who think Black America needs allies in their Army
Your neighborhood's all gang
You claim you Pro Black but you faking
Guys are dying on the pavement
All your hashtags won't save them
That ain't gangsta

People begging for their life still
I know White people who can't afford to pay their light bill
Who might feel like they the ones who losing their life
When the worst thing you could be is not ashamed to be White
White privilege is a system
They position for division
If you're Black you go to prison
If you're White your life is different
Take some money, race, religions
Sprinkle in some ammunition
And make everyone believe
That the other team is the villain

I ain't Pro Black, I ain't Pro White
I'm Pro American
Every color turns to bones
One day when you bury them

Whites or Blacks are all the same
They want us in our graves
Just let me try to explain

I swear they want us in a Race War
Dying everyday for
Whose lives matter more
Whoa
I won't be dying in the Race War
Our government is paid for
'Cause our lives matter more
Whoa

They want us in a Race War dying in the streets
Should be us against them but it's you against me
Ain't nobody gonna win, everybody gon' see
That the color of your skin don't change the color that you bleed

I swear they want us in a Race War
Dying everyday for
Whose lives matter more
Whoa
I won't be dying in the Race War
Our government is paid for
'Cause our lives matter more
Whoa
