All my life I wanted to be a cool kid A white boy who loves hip hop music In high school acted a fool I was a nuisance Too cool for the teachers their rules were all bullshit Picked on I was a freak, cried myself to sleep In the land of the bland I was too unique Thought my future's looking bleak Now that's all past tense Funny how my liabilities became my assets Back then girls wouldn't give me the time of day Now they spend the night, but I ain't asking them to stay Wake up feeling lost put the coffee in the pot I feel like all I have is (Eye) like a fuckin cyclops I'm a visitor here But if I wrap up this track can I deliver it here I love this culture but I feel like it hates me Could never be a Nas, could never be a Jay-Z I love this culture but I feel like it hates me Funny cause this culture's what made me All my life I wanted to be a cool kid, a cool kid All my life I wanted to be a cool kid Party at the trap house, baby it was too lit Back then would have killed to give my two cents But I learned to make dollars you got to move in silence I'm not afraid of the violence, but I don't encourage it Give me the microphone though and I'll murder it White privilege is the pigment I've been burdened with Do you understand the irony and dangers that I'm flirting with After this song I'll probably be called the racist But no white supremacist would ever embrace this My best hope is ignorant maybe even tasteless By rapping I'm guilty of cultural appropriation So go ahead and diss me, call me a whack vulture But I love hip hop, and I respect black culture If you can't see that maybe you're the one that's racist All I have for you compassion, understanding and patience Especially for those who still caught up in the matrix And think race is the problem, so they promote sameness Let's celebrate our differences, talk without arrogance And never feel guilty or ashamed of our heritage I love this culture but I feel like it don't know Could never be a Kendrick, can never be a J. Cole I love this culture but I feel like it don't know Funny cause this culture I would die for All my life I wanted to be a cool kid, a cool kid All my life I wanted to be a cool kid Now I'm like f*ck that, I don't got to prove shit I love this culture, I'm love sick again Don't want to be a Macklemore, don't want to be an Eminem I love this culture, I'm love sick again Funny cause this music is my medicine
