I ain't nobody, but I gotta speak up I can speak for myself cause my family can talk It's a whole lotta silence for my sisters and brothers How many more days till we lose another mother My race ain't a fetish, say f*ck yellow fever My eyes don't define shit my skin color either My people are dying but we ain't getting weaker I wanna make change and it starts with the dreamers Momma and pop worked hard Late night shifts right down the boulevard We're no different from the rest, I know But you look at us different I can tell it shows No I'm not smart cause I'm Asian, I'm smart cause I grind I learn from my dad and I learned from my kind I'm not into news it's a waste of my time But I cannot be ignorant for once in my life It's a whole lotta shit going on Eight of my uncles and aunties are gone Think of my parents cause it could've been them Brings me to tears when you try to pretend That you really care when you don't Where was you at in school when they called me a chink Where was you at when they taught you to think Where was you at when my race was your kink Enough is enough, I'm done being nice I'ma talk my shit I'ma pay that price It's a god given right and you took it away Cold blooded killer I say f*ck a bad day Can you really say you tried, for the ones you'd said you'd ride Look at the ones who died, cause I see two sides but you sitting on one Hop on a trend till it's gone Cause the issue's still there Burma in a crisis and nobody cares Free Hong Kong, look at Tiananmen Square Treating us different, but we breathe the same air Dumb motherfuckers take they mask off just to put fake one on March for your rights but I know it's a response For the fear that you felt that we humans can bond Not everyone is bad but you know who you are I ain't nobody, but I gotta speak up I can speak for myself cause my family can talk It's a whole lotta silence for my sisters and brothers How many more days till we lose another mother My race ain't a fetish, say f*ck yellow fever My eyes don't define shit my skin color either My people are dying but we ain't getting weaker I wanna make change and it starts with the dreamers
