ebenezer - melanin lyrics

[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 proud
say that sh+t louder, don’t
ever tell me, turn that sh+t 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
you know we seen it with our eyes
do you really got a bad voice, [?] rise
[?] when you stand by and act surprised when people riot
do we gotta bleed?
until it’s right in the streets
for somebody to notice that we still ain’t free
how many times you heard it? 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 proud
say that sh+t louder, don’t
ever tell me, turn that sh+t 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
