White Boy

VERSE 1
Black lives matter; they always did
You’re saying otherwise? Who’re you trying to kid?
You keep your racism under the tightest lid
And sell powerful positions for the highest bid
You’re a bunch of slave owners with a license to kill
Leaving the taxpayers to clean the mess and pay the bill
A trail of bodies as long as the Nile
Hundreds more ready to walk the Green Mile

VERSE 2
I’m not ashamed of the things I’ve said
I’m talking to you, white boy, with your neck all red
You point your pistol and you open fire
But when you take the stand, you turn into a liar
You buy the judge with your unlimited funds
Intimidate the jury until their urine runs
Walk away a free man with the blood on your hands
Go back to the station to tune up the band

VERSE 3
You talk about freedom like it’s a cultural buzz word
Yet when minorities have it, you get all butt hurt
“Reverse racism” is your phrase of choice
Boom and bang are your preference of noise
Get out of your seat; put your hand on your heart
“I pledge allegiance to the flag of Wal-Mart
And to the EBT stamps for which they accept
One nation under fraud, time to break some necks”

VERSE 4
If you say “All Lives Matter”, you’d better mean it
That includes all races, you’d better believe it
Not just the cops, the Christians, or the whites
Every one of us should have the same rights
You go back on your claim when the flag is in flames
You point your rifle like a finger at somebody to blame
It’s all about you and the power you wield

And how “reverse racism” has become a shield
