I am a hip-hop artist
I am a rapper and I'm proud of that fact
And this genre has given me a lot
So the people who have created it
This is for you
Respect

This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
Looking at people's eyes
Judge them by their size
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin

As I look all around, I hear this sound that people try to surround
But reality is what it is, as I try to lay it down
Seeing blood on the ground
Where colonialism has become the reason for some to sell ammunitions
Fill those hands with weapons
As many want to speak but they suppress
No one will help them
But will continue to oppress
The weak are being pressed
While the rich cry about being depressed

I wonder and think about their mental condition
What is the first thing that comes to the mind of a f*ck
When a black man is stopped
In front of my eyes
I see his body drop
The officer fired a shot
But the man that dropped was reaching for his license
While the officer claimed he had a glock

This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
Looking at people's eyes
Judge them by their size
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin

As I was taught by life to be strong
And both traditions should be respected
But it should change and mold
As the times go on
It grows old
Many want to sell this message of humanity, equality and unity
A world where themselves are not sold

Some act like philanthropists
Against the injustice
They are therapists
But when it comes down to colonialism
There are many facts that they miss
Then there is this matter of people of a different color of skin
Acting like supremacists
Over their own views that they impose and persist
But if a change can be good they resist
Murderously blinded by their own wishes
They insist on provisions that depicts and predicts

This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
Looking at people's eyes
Judge them by their size
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
I know how they always say that I ain't  black
Who the f*ck am I to say these facts
The last time I checked
I am a rapper working in a genre that is predominantly black
Created by black
Even as an outsider
I cannot be a culture vulture or a dick rider
Who will turn a blind eye and not state
Why the oppression should stop
While you all are wondering
What point of view this gets in their purpose
God I don't act black
I don't sit back to twist the facts
While you all can come at me
And say that I don't know what I am talking about
You all bitches are whack
The point I am trying to make
Don't  all human beings deserve to be treated with love and equality
Love and equality and unity

This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
Looking at people's eyes
Judge them by their size
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
This is how it has been
Judged by the color of skin
