BUILDING BLUEPRINT
Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
What it means
- When I got into Uni, thought it was my intelligence
- I just hunger for knowledge, the rest is irrelevent
- but they never saw the curiosity and passion
- they just thought I was a product of affirmative action
- highschool caption "only black kid in the town"
- "but he speaks so well so why his skin so brown?"
- hey I pass it off just keep a smile on my face
- rather laugh than be a stereotype of the race
- Then I brace, for jokes on skin like onyx
- they dismiss the culture but hooked on ebonics
- Lye body bags would keep on runnin' they mouth
- fly confederate flags but never been to the south
- White dads not happy bout daughters with "the other"
- wanna lash out but had to protect my little brother
- from the prejudice that comes with a skin like mocha
- let him know his achievements aren't because they filled a quota
- you can like grape soda, and know that you have it all
- even if you gotta explain that you don't play basketball
- and at the mall watch lurkin' shopkeepers and cops
- they can think what they want, but it don't mean that you stop
- Tryna break out the box that you've been given
- cause this is our life, and we gon' keep on livin'
