lirik lagu t. karras – whatever it takes
[intro]
i do whatever it takes
i do whatever it takes
i do whatever it takes
i do whatever it takes
[verse 1]
i do whatever it takes, just to find my way
i’m a rapper, so i have to portray
the harsh reality of a guy like me
hated everyday for his identity
am i black enough for ya?
am i white enough for ya?
are my progressive views too real for you?
or does my privilege make me look like i don’t have a clue?
i ask god why i have thе desire to fight
i look around and i wonder why n0body has rights
but i do bеcause i have no melanin?
summertime’s going to k!ll my skin, where do i win?
it’s like i’m not fake or real enough
it’s like i’m too soft or just too tough
well it’s just who i am, i don’t give a d~mn
judge me all you want but you can never be god
[chorus]
i do whatever it takes
just to be successful
i do whatever it takes
just to find acceptance
i do whatever it takes
just to find my way
i do whatever it takes
just to make it okay, to be who you are
[verse 2]
i’ll do whatever it takes, just to make it to the top
i want to see the view, i want to be hot
just to see what it’s like, i’m not about the hype
or that life, i don’t talk about the bullsh~t
all you people talkin’ about unloadin’ clips
yet you don’t talk about the problems that persist
like a black man getting locked up
and the white man walks free, i’m like what the f~ck?
the cartoons i watched never prophesied this
a society where everything is prejudiced
rigged in the favor of the rich white male
i thought we got past that, i guess we failed
i’m not your ancestors, this is 2020
and i’m sorry that my bredrin are absolute dummies
throwing flames, sayin’ slang, shootin’ ethnics in their brain
it gives me pain, such shame but i’m not the same
[chorus]
i do whatever it takes
just to be successful
i do whatever it takes
just to find acceptance
i do whatever it takes
just to find my way
i do whatever it takes
just to make it okay, to be who you are
i do whatever it takes
just to be successful
i do whatever it takes
just to find acceptance
i do whatever it takes
just to find my way
i do whatever it takes
just to make it okay
f~ck the n~z~ regime
