Brown Face Baby

Brown face baby Brown eyes Living in fear With no disguise To hide Behind Don't be surprised They never liked my kind Always kept my people down Took us from our homes And we ain't wanna leave town Said they found us And we ain't wanna be found They say "that's over" "Move on That's the past now" I guess they didn't hear what happened to Mike Brown Down the street from me People gettin gunned down What's it gonna take For all this hate to take a turn around Race is a game on the devil's playground People who look different from me Saying I don't need a crown And I earned it Just as much as you did How u gonna say i didn't Just Because of my skin I'm Scared for my kin I'm Scared for my friends Never thought it would happen Until the day it did Crazy how life works out Cuz even if your shielded You always find out Especially if ya face is brown But its the year 2020 Things are different now That's a lie And let me tell you why Cuz they took my people from me I ain't get to say good bye The system fucked up They gon tell u that it's right Lock you up Throw away the key Leave you behind Hold up I can't breath My hands up Don't shoot me I'm just trying go home and see My family What's it's gonna take for a Black man to feel free Hold up I can't breathe My Hands up Don't shoot me I'm just tryna go home And see my family What's it gonna take for a black girl To feel free
