Blessings

All love is gone At least to my knowledge To all of the haters I’d like to pay homage You made me into The man that you see Just a bilingual nigga from Tennessee I have one race But my mind is still split How do I explain half of this I Want to be normal But now its too late I can’t turn back now I’ve accepted my fate Two different tongues And they share the same message Yea there’s an elephant, now let me address it I am black Not a drop of Hispanic The story is too long so I will not explain it I just know that I’m blessed I just know that I’m blessed Cross on my chest cause I keep my head high I accept my position from the One in the sky I never felt like I could gain their attention Their words come at me like ammunition Well, I have two loves And they don’t talk They can’t communicate So I struggle a lot I have to put up a front and act all different So many various forms of code switchin So many thoughts float around in my head I put in these locs and with them the dread Never have I understood my vision I just know that I have a premonition that I'll be incredibly blessed I'll be incredibly blessed I cannot see heaven being much better than this Life is so bliss Sloppy wet kiss from the sun on my skin Makes my photosynthetic mind reminisce I Want to be greater but I cannot rely On my own intuition which seems to deny The darkness that has me suspended in time And cuts off my access to helpful advice I wish they could understand how my brain works And how much their ignorance makes the pain worse They talk mess about a part of me in front of my face And assume I’m not affected because of my race But I have to remind them of who I am And that I’ll stand up for those who don’t have a place For all the enigmas in this world There’s only one thing that I need to say And that is We are so blessed We are so blessed Ya se que estoy bendecido Ando en un camino enriquecido Dios me da to’ lo que pido Siempre me encuentra cuando estoy perdido Protegido estoy Con fuerza me voy Pa' otro lugar donde aceptan quien soy Las barreras derrumbo Las doy un tumbo De electricidad que causa humo Que uso para desaperacer Y convertirme en un ser que no solo quiere ver Que no solo vive una vida para entretener Que no solo dice lo que la gente quiere creer Que no habla irrespetusamente de la mujer Que no sigue en las huellas de lo infiel Que no solo hace lo que solamente yo deseo Que no se rinde enfrente de lo que me da miedo (Drake) If I hurt your feelings, I’m not taking it back The point of this song was to make you aware Of how hard it is to be more than just Black To be more than your skin or texture of hair Race has become my only face But my mind is still a very diverse place If only they could see what’s inside I know for sure that they would open their eyes and be blessed
