Amarii Davu - The Cost Of Melanin Lyrics

[Hook: Amarii Davu]
Maybe if I was light enough
They would think I was bright enough
Maybe if I was light enough
They would think I was bright enough

[Verse 1]
Maybe if I was light enough
They would think I was bright enough
Look at here, got your lights up
Mr. Officer, I'm just
Being who I'm destined, fuck arresting
I got a question
I ain't got no damn weapon
Why you killers in my presence hounding?
Bullydogging on my brothers and sisters
Pushing hope or pushing dope
You just see niggas and niggas
You see targets for triggers, you see gangstas and bitches
I see pussies with pistols and badges, hidden intentions
If they kill me for that sentence, sorry that you was guilty
I cannot hide the truth, man
When you feel it, you feel it
What?
I'm blasting music to escape all the ig'nance
Looking out the bus window, seeing all this division
It hit my mind, you either pimped or you pimpin'
I hit the grind, these coppers can't catch me slippin'
Got a pound of that cocaín in my throat when I'm spittin'
And now they're telling me freeze
Freedom of speech is a bitch and
Damn
[Hook]
Maybe if I was light enough
They would think I was bright enough
Maybe if I was light enough
They would think I was bright enough
