B Dynasty - Color Blind Lyrics




I wake up I was born like this
Dreadhead, tattoos yea that was my doing
And now I get that eye roll
But I'm starting to learn that's normal
Cuz yall see with these lenses
A black man with dreads and tats who also raps
I'm that dude
I prolly grew up in the hood wit no dad and gang fights
That's my life cuz you said so
My favorite fruit is that watermelon and that grape juice quench my thirst
I show up late to work
I just wanna hit this blunt roll up and play 2k and steal your car
That's why when you see me you lock it quick
I'm ignorant ain't graduate and I can barely even read
So how'd I just read all your thoughts

Why can't we be color blind
I'm a human like you too and yes I bleed like you do
But this is just the life we live
Why can't we be color blind
I'm a human like you too and yes I bleed like you do
But this is just the life we live
And I am not what you expect of me
I'm someone you won't ever know cuz you don't try...
To know... you don't try... to know

Why can't we be color blind
Why can't we be color blind
You don't try...
You don't try...

Since age 12 I've noticed this
That people treat me different
So I told myself I'd never let em ever try to place me in that light but
You know that Black light it always show
No point in tryna hide it
I was pissed I was ashamed I ain't chose to be this way
I ain't chose to be in this racist nation
Growing up black is hard work
They wonder why we all cut it's from those knives y'all cut with
But I'm not what y'all expect of me and a traffic stop could be the death of me
So I ride slow and I sit up straight
No sudden moves cuz that could end my day
And some days are too much
Even for this thick skin
So I sit and pray and ask God
Why can't we be color blind but yall prolly won't get that line

Why can't we be color blind
I'm a human like you too and yes I bleed like you do
But this is just the life we live
Why can't we be color blind
I'm a human like you too and yes I bleed like you do
But this is just the life we live
And I am not what you expect of me
I'm someone you won't ever know cuz you don't try...
To know...you don't try... to know

Why can't we be color blind
Why can't we be color blind
You don't try...
You don't try...
