[verse 1: sanity]
i don’t feel like you care
see i’m black everyday, baby, what’s a black square?
don’t focus on what’s back there
got bare assets, more than i appear
life’s not fair, i could never live in fear
i ain’t got a moment to spare, clear
know when i’m not welcome, see i’ve got that down to a stare (yeah)
keep it steppin’, like, yeah, i’ma head out
brush past ’em like the brother in get out
threatening when we’re together, so they pressure us to spread out
can’t swallow pride even when i know a fed out
h~~rding rage that i know i can’t let out
nah, nah, see we can’t get loud
too aggressive keep my head down, but i’m so fed up
pressure to the neck, can’t live in regret
trying to make a check, you know how it’s set
dumb it down ’cause they question intellect
see it in effect, reading for the depth
stay woke come in like we never slept
babylon got me feeling like a guest
walking in rooms they never would of guessed
asking me how i wanna be addressed
calling me lady in adidas creps
don’t ask my government why are you obsessed? (baby, why you so obsessed?)
living rent free in your mind give me rest (baby, give me rest)
why is you pressed?
pushing your luck, but you can’t gimmie no reps
equality meeting just wasting my breath
lemme see what you’ve tackled, come gimme some refs

[verse 2: kofi stone]
every day i wake up black and proud
tell me why they wanna a black man down
white man took a black man’s sound
and white man rose and the black man drowned
i was living in a white man’s town
why the feds wanna pat man down?
might run up in downing street with a heater
then start letting of rounds
felt shivers its pain that were living in
stay with it they hate when you’re diligent
racism ain’t changed, just hidden in
am i way too brave for an immigrant?
when you’re this black prejudice ain’t far from a dispatch
i’m a riff raff ’cause the cainrowes tight
and my skins not white, but i can’t just take it and sit back
you can really get down in a day
drowned in the rain, real sh~t allow the debate
couple heads still loud with the hate
sounding the same, so i point then i aim, then shoot it
that’s down to the pain
black with a vengeance, allow the delay
ring the alarm, get loud in the place
it’s time to go mad, so we lowed any breaks
you don’t wanna get caught slipping when you’re black
gotta get through, so we’re slipping in the gap
you ain’t gonna change sh~t sitting in the back
if i see a racist hit ’em with a slap
can’t go alone, so we did it in a pack
i was in defence ’cause they was in attack
sitting on the fence ain’t really where it’s at
i was tryna vent, so i put it in a rap

[verse 3: sanity]
not sitting on a fortune yet, still i’m not unfortunate
still we know our power, although we ain’t got our portion yet
pay me what you owe me, not to tick the box the thought of it
god forbid, can’t let that sell, culture try to auction it
my shoes you can not walk in it
excuse, you trying to tell me how to feel as if you know just how i feel
you pick a colour then you morph in it
the awkwardness, gas lighting torturers
say the past’s the past, but too much black is too much forwardness
my sister works in corporate, made to feel she’s forcing it
like she’s less important, see success and then they caution it
the early bird gets the worm, but the black bird means they’re mourning it
these hashtags phony if you ain’t really on calling it
out, i’ve lost count the amount
i’ve been fuel up on doubt when they drown most your history
how’d you find self?
so i shout about beauty, i lost in myself
what’s problematic when pride’s all i felt?
