Hei$enberg - Skin Color

George Floyd said he couldn’t breathe
But the murderer still applied the pressure

White man go and shoot up a school
But he is not treated like he the aggressor


They get arrested, but treated so special
We don’t get that option, we leave out in stretchers

We battling demons, dear lord please help us
Just look at the people that’s hired to protect us

Breonna, she didn’t deserve to die
Her killers still free, and I’m wondering why

They taking our life, at the blink of an eye
Protect and serve, I think it’s a lie

But who am I, to try and point out the blame
Truck trailing with a man and chain

I could have stopped it, but I stayed in my lane
Honestly speaking, I’m feeling ashamed

Far from a bum, but I’m fighting for change
RIP to James Byrd, man I hate he was slain


Far from a bum, but I’m fighting for change
RIP to James Byrd, man I hate he was slain


Skin color shouldn’t matter, we all are the same
If you think otherwise, then you should be ashamed

Your momma and daddy they raised up a lame
And had hate in they heart, so you part of the blame

It’s time that we start breaking those chains
Kill all the hate and replace it with love

But that’s kind of hard to do
When another brother really want to fill you up with some slugs


Skin color shouldn’t matter, we all are the same
But I’m afraid that’s not the way that it works

The darker your skin, the lesser your worth
If that’s how you feel, then you really a curse

Every white person cannot a be racist
And every black man don’t rob and kill

I pray to God we can turn pages
But it seems like we stuck in slavery still

But now, it’s minus the whips and chains
He was unarmed but the cop let It bang

Another mother filled with anger and pain
Bright future cut short, that is a shame

Been many things, but I never been racist
Discriminated in public places

Wish I could kill all the hate and erase it
Bring it back with love as a replacement

Been down and out, but I’m never defeated
If we come together, man we can beat it

Treat people how you want to be treated
Truth be told, that shit ain’t a secret

Skin color shouldn’t matter, we all are the same
If you think otherwise, then you should be ashamed

Your momma and daddy they raised up a lame
And had hate in they heart, so you part of the blame

It’s time that we start breaking those chains
Kill all the hate and replace it with love

But that’s kind of hard to do
When another brother really want to fill you up with some slugs


RIP to Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Alfred Wright, James Bryd
God bless all of the families who have been victims to police brutality or racism

And one more thing before I go
Fuck racism
