Ebenezer - Melanin lyrics

Artist: Ebenezer

album: Melanin


All because I'm black
Black, that's my skin
My melanin
That's how it's always been
All because I'm black
That's why they treat me different
I talk, they don't listen
I'm not playin' the victim
I gotta say I'm black and I'm proud
Say that shit loud
Don't ever tell me, "Tone that shit down", yeah
All because I'm black
Black, that's my skin
My melanin
That's how it's always been
I thank God I'm alive
Sick of watchin' my people die
Look at how they take a life
They go on the record and lie
Even though we seen it with our eyes
Do we really got a bad voice? I tell our people rise
How long will you stand by and act surprised when people riot?
Do we gotta bleed?
Until it's right in the streets
For somebody to notice that we still ain't free
How many times you heard it?
"I cannot breathe"
When we get stopped by police
All because I'm black
Black, that's my skin
My melanin
That's how it's always been
All because I'm black
That's why they treat me different
I talk, they don't listen
I'm not playin' the victim
I gotta say I'm black and I'm proud
Say that shit loud
Don't ever tell me, "Tone that shit down", yeah
All because I'm black
Black, that's my skin
My melanin
That's how it's always been
I thank God I'm alive
