Melanin Lyrics


Ebenezer Melanin

[Chorus]
All because I'm black, black, that's my skin
My melanin, that's how it's always been
All because I'm black, that's why they treat me different
I talk, they don't listen, I'm not playin' the victim
I gotta say I'm black and I'm proud, yeah, say that shit loud, don't
Ever tell me tone that shit down, yeah
All because I'm black, black, that's my skin
My melanin, that's how it's always been

[Verse]
I thank God I'm alive, sick of watchin' my people die
Look at how they take a life, they go on the record and lie
Even though we seen it with our eyes (Our own eyes)
Do we really gotta beg for someday like equal rights?
How long will you stand by and act surprised when people riot?
Do we gotta bleed until it's fight in the streets
For somebody to notice that we still ain't free?
How many times you heard that I cannot breathe
When we get stopped by police?

[Chorus]
All because I'm black, black, that's my skin
My melanin, that's how it's always been
All because I'm black, that's why they treat me different
I talk, they don't listen, I'm not playin' the victim
I gotta say I'm black and I'm proud, yeah, say that shit loud, don't
Ever tell me tone that shit down, yeah
All because I'm black, black, that's my skin
My melanin, that's how it's always been

[Outro]
I thank God I'm alive
