WHITEBOY - Tom MacDonald

I cannot feel guilty for s**t that I didn't do

But I can understand the reasons why you think

That I should

Yeah I'm white but I never put

Your neck in no noose

And I never burnt a 'cross or hid my face

With a hood

You can't just label me racist 'cause

I'm related to people

Who did some terrible s**t way back before I was alive

My parents brought me up to treat everyone as an equal

I refuse to feel ashamed 'cause of my pretty blue eyes

F**k a Nazi f**k a white supremacist

F**k anyone who labels me as that because of my family genetics

The hatred for Caucasians is so f**king pathetic

Go be proud that you're black but

Don't hate me for some credit

I'm not the white devil neo-nazi cop tryna pull the trigger

You can call me what you want but

I'd still never say

The white race as a whole ain't the enemy

There's racist white people but we're far from that collectively

White boy don't say that

White boy oh you so bad

White boy you wish you were black

White boy hey white boy

White boy white noise

S**t I can't say with my white voice

White boys white lies

Don't tell me how to see it through my white eyes

If a black man is sippin' on some

Cognac sitting next to me

I don't assume that every black's favorite drink is Hennessy

I don't dislike Tanesha 'cause her first name isn't Stephanie

Not only is that wrong it's a f**king waste of energy

Ivory or ebony 45 or 17 we all bleed the same

Martin Luther King or Kennedy

They're angry I'm recitin' the facts

He's white and he raps and stole

The culture right from the blacks

Okay he's fire but we lit the flame he's siphoning gas

So f**k this corny little honky man the whitey is wack

You letting history perpetuate the hatred within

And then you paint me with the brush

You painted slave owners with

Yeah

White boy don't say that

White boy oh you so bad

White boy you wish you were black

White boy hey white boy

White boy white noise

Sayin' s**t I can't say with my white voice

White boys white lies

Don't tell me how to see it

Through my white eyes

I got a mother a father a sister

An auntie and uncle

And a grandma that I picture when

You're openly hatin'

And God willing one day

I'll have a kid of my own

I refuse to let you blindly hate

My wife or my baby

So go ahead and hate the racists

I pray for their extinction

If you wanna hate the white people just make a distinction

Between the ones who want the best

For everyone regardless

And the ones who built the system

Just to smother you with hardship

Stop before you say it I know what you been thinking

How's a straight white male in 2018 b***hing

You're making me the villain by demonizing my race

For things I didn't do and decisions

I didn't make

No one that I call a friend has ever owned a slave

And neither did our dad's or our dads dad's f**k sakes

Acknowledging atrocities were wrongly committed

Is all that I can offer when

I'm wrongly convicted

I would never hate a man for what

God gave him in pigments

And I would never plot against him

Just because he is different

I would never judge a human for the cards

He was given or

Call them lesser than myself 'cause of the race

That he's mixed with

White people that you hate aren't your neighbors or lawyers

They're the Rockafellers Rothschilds bushes and royals

They're the people who monopolize the water and oil

And injected your communities with *** 'til they spoil

Got no patience for Nazis I think they're better off dead

They're fighting hatred with hatred

Makin' the hate more intense

I don't want nothing to do with either side of the fence

So don't blindly attack me for wearing braids on my head

Hate the people who believe you put yourselves in the ghetto

Hate the ones who teach they children

You ain't s**t 'cause they said so

Hate the ones who think you're all the same

And judge you profusely

'Cause the way that you're portrayed

On our news and in movies

Bein' white and bein' racist aren't the same man

I promise

Know it's hard to tell the difference if

I'm just being honest

I deserve the chance to show you

I'm not part of the problem

And you owe it to yourselves we got so much in common

White boy don't say that

White boy oh you so bad

White boy you wish you were black

White boy hey white boy

White boy white noise

Sayin' s**t I can't say with my white voice

White boys white lies

Don't tell me how to see it through my white eyes

White boy don't say that

White boy oh you so bad

White boy you wish you were black

White boy hey white boy
