lirik lagu pallaví - identity
why they tryna tell me what i can and cannot do?
appropriating my sh-t but calling my sh-t savage too
telling me to go back home i think you must be confused
telling us that we too dark cos the sun don’t shine for you
i’m pretty nice, not usually mean
but if you talk about my people i might have to intervene
we could play cool and forget the pain that we-
sike b-tch, you know this suffering wasn’t done for free
i’m a brown b-tch melanin rich fijian queen (x3)
hailing from the coolie diaspora know what that mean
that i’m a brown b-tch melanin rich fijian queen (x3)
hailing from the coolie diaspora know what that mean
it means my people had to struggle just to try to be seen
always trying to suppress us do you know what i see?
i see everyone around you staring at me on they screens
talkin’ bout how pallavi is the woman of they dreams
never thought you’d see a girl like me come back from defeat
asking me all of these questions as i’m walking down these streets
always trying to define but i’m my own ident-ty
always trying to define but i’m my own ident-ty
lemme make it clear we ain’t talkin’ bout a race
we talkin’ bout a system that’s always tryna erase
the voices of the young, oppressed until they fade
that’s why we need to continue in order to create
i’m a brown b-tch melanin rich fijian queen (x3)
hailing from the coolie diaspora know what that mean
that i’m a brown b-tch melanin rich fijian queen (x3)
hailing from the coolie diaspora know what that mean
they take our people, they take our past, they throw it all away
they take our voices, they take our land, they take our right to pray
they didn’t know we come from resilience and faith
we still here, we staying here, we leading the way
i’m a brown b-tch melanin rich fijian queen (x3)
hailing from the coolie diaspora know what that mean
that i’m a brown b-tch melanin rich fijian queen (x3)
hailing from the coolie diaspora know what that mean
