Questions in mind will I be accepted or not
|
If not that's fine won't let it hold me down
|
The mold I'm breakin out stereotypes
|
Like she can't rip the mic she's white
|
Get it right come to a show
|
Come to a session at the studio watch me flow
|
Watch the record sales watch me blow
|
Watch me get em all sayin oohh look at her go
|
It ain't like that at first till I drop that first verse
|
Then cats eyes pop out like they brain gon burst
|
Get up in the club bout to rip a show up
|
They don't even know what im there for
|
Girls be like I can't believe she showed up
|
What's she doin here who let her in
|
Don't she see she don't belong yo she don't fit in
|
I don't fit in anywhere but everywhere at the same time
|
Cuz all different types of people vibe off the same rhyme
|
|
Instead of black and white could it be me and you
|
Look inside my soul tell me whats visible
|
Don't put me with the rest I'm an individual
|
Sometimes the best things lye beyond the phyical
|
|
People like you aren't supposed to do what you do
|
People like me what the f*** people like you
|
That prejudge and can't get beyond the color lines
|
Corrupt children and they children's minds spread through bloodlines
|
Hatred is not an instinct
|
Get some education for ya ass and then tell me what ya think
|
Learn from those I come in contact watch for attack
|
Keep my guard up down for combat
|
Can't back away cuz they don't see it my way
|
Or they not used to people like me comin they way
|
Only hate cuz people fear the unknown
|
But fear drive me to take a chance and be bold
|
Try to knock me down gotta stay on my toes
|
Prevail winner of the game cuz they think I'm gon fold
|
More than you see more than skin and bones
|
More than blood more than flesh im soul
|
|
Instead of black and white could it be me and you
|
Look inside my soul tell me whats visible
|
Don't put me with the rest I'm an individual
|
Sometimes the best things lye beyond the phyical
|
|
Yeah it gets rough being the minority's tough
|
Yeah there's been times I felt like I had enough
|
Bout to give up but I held strong
|
Felt like lettin' go of my dreams but I held on
|
I can't let anyone stand in my way
|
Everyone got they opinion I don't care what they say
|
Out of NY moved to the LI-TH-ONIA down to Ga
|
Me and my roommate stand out in the complex
|
Aint no thing I relate through rhyme contest
|
Earn my respect through rhymes
|
Rhymes help me get through times
|
When ignorant people creep under my skin and get to mines
|
I don't understand they mind state
|
Talk about both sides of the board dog they make me irate
|
Need to pick up a book and work they intellect
|
And let respect gain respect
|
|
Instead of black and white could it be me and you
|
Look inside my soul tell me whats visible
|
Don't put me with the rest I'm an individual
|
Sometimes the best things lye beyond the phyical
|
