Docta - Colourblind (feat. Ryan Blackburn)
My heart aches my people been living in chainsDemonised, living like slaves
Thinking bout ways, we could be free is outrageous
Not a given were lucky were named
Even this day, we gotta say black lives matter
Cause people ain't know we're the same
Just wanna be just like you, Get the same treatment in school
And Not get followed in shops for our race
Man I'm raging, My people are shaking
Police pull us over cause we're looking shifty
But we're scared cause if we pull over, get taken
Get beat in the cells, heaven knows if we'll make it
Save it, we don't want sympathy we want changes
A home in court as a barrister not as a vagrant
Feeling displaced with the way that were made
I can't stop till were complacent
I’ve got to suppress this rage in my soul
This guilt makes the world feel so cold
I cry way too much to be bold
But I will make this world on my own
Suffocated, I can barely breathe and I’m so tired of everybody screaming
That it’s all okay to not care
And this will always be there
Runnin my mouth two times yeah they’ll say it’s fine
Take it all home at night yeah it’s alright to cry
When everybody plans your whole life
It’s just a matter of time
I’ve got to suppress this rage in my soul
This guilt makes the world feel so cold
I cry way too much to be bold
But I will make this world on my own
My people have dreams
Torn from kings and queens
Born into poverty, Beggars belief
Sworn to so solemly go as we please
Not at home in the land where were meant to be free
Never too sure bout the keepers of peace
Lucky to be alive so were made to believe
Look my skin tones not a ring tone
I can't choose that but I choose to be free
Man I'm black
Brudda I dream brudda I dream of being a man
At the side of my peers side of my peers we got a plan
Brudda I mean For aslong as I breath, I live it, I breathe it, I die and I bleed
We gon' be free you ain't holding us back
I’ve got to suppress this rage in my soul
This guilt makes the world feel so cold
I cry way too much to be bold
But I will make this world on my own
I’ve got to suppress this rage in my soul
This guilt makes the world feel so cold
I cry way too much to be bold
But I will make this world on my own
I’ve got to suppress this rage in my soul
This guilt makes the world feel so cold
I cry way too much to be bold
But I will make this world on my own
