They Like Me feat. Lecrae

歌詞

They like me forget about the color I might be Its likely they just like me We different but the same we covered by the blood of the King I don't do black music I don't do white music I do fight music unified in Christ music Lets get right to it hear the music write to it From the context of a black kid fighting through it Some folks said it was worldly it was too good Some folks was scared of it it was too hood So I took it to the places who would embrace it And sometimes believe it or not it was white faces Am I a sellout assimilating what's in my head No I am Cyclops homie cause all I see is red People covered in the blood are my fam And we don't just relate we all related through the Lamb My family tree is a lower case t And we are all the same cause you need him like me We different but the same and it's likely They just like me that's probably why they like me They like me forget about the color I might be Its likely they just like me We different but the same we covered by the blood of the King They like me they like me they like me They say we shouldn't get along cause our different skin tones But I promise you they oh so wrong oh so wrong They like me I got bue eyes light skin and some black curls grew up the white kid in a black world when ya live and ya different well the facts hurt moved to the burbs and don't fit in that's worse I'm just a nerd getting chased home on my bike after school fight lay in my bed cry at night Hate the fact that my status read poor and white And all the rappers I idolize tell me that I'm never right now my skin is light and I ain't fitting in I'm on the outside of hip hop screaming let me in I'm hooked up with sin hate the very skin I'm in Cause every time I rhyme they like look eminem Looking back again is in the worst place All I had was beastie boys and third bass I'm the dude who always come down in 3rd place Until I heard of your life and your grace So on the weekend started seeking looking for the meaning Heard a pastor preaching couldn't believe just what I'm seeing walked into a church of white blacks and Puerto Rican Without a single reason they loved on this little heathen And with never speaking they just showed me simply That Jesus is the only one to make me sin free And beauty is the only thing that's ever skin deep I was lonely but a new family is what you give me So really really if we claim now to love the son Why we got to segregate sunday 10-1 So much to overcome now from what's been done but if starts with me (then what?) then I'll be the one now ya better run I'm stepping on ya toes got ya out ya comfort zone now ya out the boat if were a family then let's grow now and make a home let them know you're my brother no matter what the tone
