They don't want to see me as American
See me on your TV as a terrorist
All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
They don't want to see me as American
The only ones who been here are my native friends
All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
Why they gotta treat me like I'm alien?
Why they acting like I'm not American?
Why they so obsessed with what I'm wearing, man?
Got me sweating under their surveillance
Tryna regulate our bodies
Got these men all in our face
These ain't tighty-whities
Wish they would evaporate
Wall around the country
They just tryna make it great
They the caca from that shithole
And their president is saying
Throw some bleach on that bitch
Throw some bleach on that bitch
Tryna keep it white on white like them ones with the switch
Throw some bleach in that bitch
Throw some bleach in that bitch
Tryna keep it white on white like a toilet full of shh...
They don't want to see me as American
See me on your TV as a terrorist
All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
They don't want to see me as American
The only ones who been here are my native friends
All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
Riding the tide on some mega waves
Afros and curly hair mega babes
Shut down the beach, had a mega day
We surfin around all the mega hate
Imagine no kind of misogyny
Where would I want no apologies
Show all these foolish men how to be
Gotta make my babies proud of me
This burkini my sunblock
This burkini my slingshot
They Goliath, I'm that rock
Try to stop me, I think not
I'm so high on this sunbeam
I shine bright, they can't run me
Find me where the fun be
Not everything gotta be upstream
Throw some bleach on that bitch
Throw some bleach on that bitch
Tryna keep it white on white like the ones with the switch
Throw some bleach in that bitch
Throw some bleach in that bitch
Tryna keep it white on white like a toilet full of shh...
They don't want to see me as American

All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
They don't want to see me as American
The only ones who been here are my native friends
All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
They don't want to see me (How come?)
Instead of peace, they want policing (like for real?)
So here I am all on your TV (Look at me)
On that beach in my burkini (burkini!)
They don't want to see me as American
See me on your TV as a terrorist
All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
They don't want to see me as American
The only ones who been here are my native friends
All I wanna do is have some fun by the beach, man
But here come ICE and that travel ban
Burkini!
