Just Because It's a Joke Doesn't Mean It's Not Racist
I'm feeling uncomfortable While making people feel uncomfortable That I get mad when they don't take my face seriously. I know I'm not the brownest one But sometimes I feel I'm the only one Who likes to talk about this white-washed breed.
You think I'm exaggerating. But when a cop stops your dad from dropping you off On a quiet suburban street, do you think I'm wrong? Don't laugh when I exert some pride. Not talking about it doesn't solve anything. Not talking about it doesn't solve anything.
It's not that you're insensitive. I couldn't care less if you're sensitive. It's the fact that you and I still consider myself white. When I see someone in the crowd With the same face as mine, You have no idea what that feels like.
You say, "It's just a joke." Well, I'll say, "They're just feelings." You'll laugh it off again While I'll still wish that my skin was peeling.
