This is a Homage beat Aye is it cool if I talk with y'all right quick? Born into love, but we programmed to hate Our fellow human beings causin' us to separate If y'all could see our differences are only skin deep Then maybe we could finally have some peace 'Bout to go ape, I feel like there's a lot on my plate Police brutality and segregated mind states The system is corrupt, Satan's pullin' the strings Man it should've be foreseen when they battered Rodney King I know the judicial branch is run by racists 'Cuz Brock Turner got three months despite being a rapist The evidence is obvious, it ain't hard to miss So how y'all 'posed to tell me white privilege don't exist? When Trayvon got popped for standin' there with his hood on These wicked politicians, they keep doin' the hood wrong BLM labeled as a terrorist threat Justice for all, bruh how quick we seem to forget Yeah black on black ain't exactly helpin' the case But that don't mean what white America does ain't a disgrace So everyone make way for a country that is lawless 'Cuz now we got a Klansman up in the oval office Born into love, but we programmed to hate Our fellow human beings causing us to separate If y'all could see our differences are only skin deep Then maybe we could finally have some peace I said we born into love, but we programmed to hate Our fellow human beings causing us to separate If y'all could see our differences are only skin deep Then maybe we could finally have some peace They tell me "All Lives Matter", thanks for the information But ain't all lives held at equal value in this nation Humanity should never be judged by skin color Lack of unity is just gon' make this world duller Justice for Alton Sterling, Philandro, and Mike Brown Swimmin' in a sea of racist faces and I might drown Some say I'm puttin' hate for whites up on the shelf But I'm half white, so that would mean I hate myself And that's a crazy statement, 'cuz we all created equal Melanin or lack of, we should stand as one people Homie this is outrageous Twenty years since Pac said it, still I see no changes Time to tell five-o to stop shootin' without a cause 'Cuz they took a freakin' oath and now they breakin' those same laws Dang, seems like every year gets worse Another innocent man gettin' hauled off in a hearse Born into love, but we programmed to hate Our fellow human beings causing us to separate If y'all could see our differences are only skin deep Then maybe we could finally have some peace I said we born into love, but we programmed to hate Our fellow human beings causing us to separate If y'all could see our differences are only skin deep Then maybe we could finally have some peace The white backlash of today is rooted in the same problem that has characterized America ever since the black man landed in chains on the shores of this nation This does not imply that all white Americans are racist Far from it Nor does it mean that America has made no progress In our attempt to cure the body politic of the disease of racism However, for the good of America It is necessary to refute the idea that the dominant ideology in our country Even today, is freedom and equality Racism can well be that corrosive evil That would bring down the curtain on western civilization Some future historian will have to say that a great civilization died Because it lacked the soul and commitment to make justice a reality for all men
