Lyric Don t Call Me White

Don t call me white
The connotations wearing my nerves thin
Could it be semantics generating the mess we re in?
I understand that language breeds stereotype
But what s the explanation for the malice, for the spite?
Don t call me white
I wasn t brought here, I was born
Circumcised, categorized, allegiance sworn
Does this mean I have to take such shit
For being fairskinned? No!
I ain t a part of no conspiracy, I m just you re average Joe
Don t call me white
Represents everything I hate
The soap shoved in the mouth to cleanse the mind
The vast majority of sheep
A buttoned collar, starched and bleached
Constricting veins, the blood flow to the brain slows
They re so fuckin ordinary white
Don t call me white
