lyrics

You're kidding yourself
thinking that you see me like you see me
and all the things that you said
Like the way you like how I act
I don't know better and she don't know better
So no one here is winning, can't you see?

My god don't love your god
and your god's not a man
Oh but you're not allowed to talk to my woman unless I'm holding her hand
I'm forced to love the one who knows the one about me
My story as it goes, I got a black history

(Its a black history)

You don't like me and I don't think I love you
but thats just fine you see, cause I'm not living proof
of anyone who has something
to advise you on in a matter of time
Whats the matter with you?
Is it time?

The master race is gonna pass us
pass us for a lap
oh and then she tells me how she loves me
but that she wants to take a nap
but I'd rather take a train, deep into my own brain
then sit here trying to think of things
to make you amused
to make you a muse

(to make you immune)

Theres a whisper across the wartime
the soldiers are setting up
the camps are now freezing
there's frost on the guns
And i don't really know where my water's come from
it might be full of lead
and theres a bullet made of heavy metal
screaming past my head

and I don't really care if I love anyone
I just want to survive
but can't you see that the morning's come
and you've been failing to thrive
oh but it's just fine
I don't think you know
how far we gotta go
and you better wake the fuck up
its really time to go
you better wake the fuck up!
(I'm not holding back for you)

It's not like I'm the only one
and its not like you're the only one
who's got a black history
