Lewy Lou - Skin Color

Yea.
They try to judge me of my skin color..
They try to judge me of my skin color
They say I'm black and I'm arrogant
They hated on my melanin
Try to make us slave
Cause they rather see us box in
I broke the cage
that they try to lock me up in.
It's like working minimum wage
Knowing they taxing
I'm breaking laws
just to make the bracket
I paid cost
Just to take a fraction
Round of applause
I see no one clapping
Cuz when you loose it all
And you back at bottom
That's when they reacting
Yea
This for my people who ain't have a choice
Working day and night just to get insurance
This for the people who ain't have a voice
Say we gotta fight for our independence
Cause we all people
They tried to separate us
But we all equal
Only God can judge us
Only God can judge us
As I pledge allegiance to the flag
One nation Under God
All religions, different tribals
I don't see colors when I see you
I just know we humans
We all fighting for our freedom
But they made us rivals
Then try to give us titles
They called us hooligans
African American
Guilty until we innocent
I guess i gotta pay the price just to be free again
But they overcharged my type like we debiting
Foreal
Yea
This for my people who ain't have a choice
Working day and night just to get insurance
This for the people who ain't have a voice
Say we gotta fight for our independence
Cause we all people
They tried to separate us
But we all equal
Only God can judge us
Only God can judge us
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I'm fighting demons, and they hoping I wreck
I beat the odds just to make it
Even when they try to get in my flesh
I seen a vision it was blurry
But I ain't never loose sense
I guess it's common like a denominator
Cause they rather see us down under
Or lock us up just to give us numbers
And when you stuck behind them walls
That's when you loose your power
I know they tried to cut me off but i'm a generator
This for my people who ain't have a choice
Working day and night just to get insurance
Yea
This for the people who ain't have a voice
Say we gotta fight for our independence
Cause we all people
They tried to separate us
But we all equal
Only God can judge us
Only God can judge us
They tried to take away our rights
like it's freedom of speech
So they rather keep us silence
Cause they hate when we speak
Or they label us as violence
But all we wanted was peace
I know they say we all United
But they broke us in pieces!
Like segregation, we separated
They try to judge us by our faces and give us races
You either colored or you white It's like they gave us placements
Got us fighting for our lives It's like we're suffocated
Foreal
This for my people who ain't have a choice
Working day and night just to get insurance
This for the people who ain't have a voice
Say we gotta fight for our independence
