Georgia Anne Muldrow Keep It Real?
If I took away your language and your trust
and taught you to be ashamed of where you come from
how would you feel? how would you feel?
If I locked you up for a 100 years or more
sold your children off like candy in a store
lets keep it real lets keep it real
If I made fun of your accent when you talk
but in the video your dialect I caught
lets keep it real lets keep it real
If I pat you on your head like you’re a pet (“you’re the most beautiful black woman I've ever seenâ€)
Then I get surprised when you get all upset
how would you feel? how would you feel?
If I told you now that my best friend is black (“Tyrone is my homeboyâ€)
see would you trust me more than you did 2 seconds back?
Lets keep it real. Please keep it real.
I forgive all of your ignorance of this.
but my forgiveness does not let you off the hook
“Reparations†is the next song on my list.
