Lyrics:
Been feeling this way since I was sixteen, came to my senses
You never liked us anyway, fuck your friendship, I meant it
I'm African-American, I'm
Been feeling this way since I was sixteen, came to my senses
You never liked us anyway, fuck your friendship, I meant it
I'm African-American, I'm
us
Yeah the African now American
They give a fuck bout ya clothes or ya heritage
Black skin so they prejudice, menace full of melanin
In due time
American
Different from your piers so they joke about your heritage
Flesh darker than your roots so you deal with embarrassment
Issues like these make it
got loyalty, got royalty inside my DNA
(This is why I say that Hip-Hop has done more damage)
(To young African-Americans than racism in recent years)
don't start
Trashing em, bashing em, harassing em
It just shows accurately the
Racism to the maximum
Here's American Heritage Dictionary
4th edition
since I was 16
Came to my senses
I'm African-American, I'm African
I'm black as the moon
Heritage of a small village
Pardon my residence
Came from
reflect the images presented by the media's elite
Positive or negative attention is viewed as success
U.S.D.A. African American Beef is seen as progress
We
African-
Americans and the effortful fights of many activists
Live on the news, there’s riots in Minneapolis
Shades of Rodney King and the violence in its
as success
U.S.D.A. African American Beef is seen as progress
We never ask ourselves too many questions
Too much truth in introspection
Maintain
history month
Black history is American
How are we gonna get rid of racism
Stop talking about it
I'm gonna stop calling you a white man
And I'm gonna ask
respect, ethics
I refuse to be a statistic
But changing my community
Don't seem realistic
Show me an African American doing right
I'll show you one that will
better than
'Cause you need to do double what they do so you can level them
Black is so much deeper than just African-American
Our heritage been
What if I told you we were capable of more than just trying to educate our local Neighborhood
Racists
And what if Black History Month covered more than
the dollar not the Fame bruh
Stop all that comparison is embarrassing
I mean it's actually hilarious
African American like it's my heritage
I represent my
to get on the floor
(This is why I say that hip hop has done more damage
To young African Americans than racism in recent years)
I live a better, fuck
say we from Bahamas
Know yoself, I don't start but I end the drama
Know yoself, I'm not African im American
Know yoself, ima god but I'm only half a man
better than
'Cause you need to do double what they do so you can level them
Black is so much deeper than just African-American
Our heritage been severed
Im not american
Im african american
From anglosaxon heritage no decent
Im running outta electricity clips
Who said this thing is fixed?
Entire
Burn American Flags
Forget the heritage tags
Matter fact kiss my African American ass
I looked into the heavens
And I begged for Armageddon
I woke up
speaking, had no business buying expensive jewelry, so they created a sliding scale.” The “tradition” of spending one months’ salary on an engagement ring
like my heritage, American, the Civil War
Afterwards, we forgot the folks we fought it for
To build up who built this country from the bottom floor
It's a East African
I think he's East African
Tembien back in the hoopti till you sin again
Tembien back in the hoopti till you sin again
Tembien
becoming the users of
Time that we've stolen to see our ends sooner
Yeah, yeah, your American state,
Stringing everyone along on making it great
But how do
