georgia anne muldrow – keep it real? lyrics
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 seen”)
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 homeboy”)
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.
