jayniac jr. - melanindeavour (remix) lyrics

[verse 1: monosundria]
the color of my skin hasn’t been so kind
my melanin’s complexion brings troubled thoughts to mind
my mama told me to be good, and walk a peaceful way
my daddy told me don’t be rude, be careful what you say

[chorus: monosundria]
stop, breathe
can’t you see that i’m trying?
i’m trying to be good enough
be there if you dare see what i see
it’s nothing that you wanna be
but at the same time, i can’t help myself
and i gotta love who i am
one of a kind so i stop, breathe
can’t you see that i’m trying?
i’m trying to be good

[verse 2: monosundria]
melanated skin is a melancholy beautiful
unthoughtful self+hate that grows from deep within
my face, my style society ripped off for free
put thеm in magazines to be seen, the covеr girls don’t look like me

[verse 3: jayniac jr.]
pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
my culture’s highly rated
often appropriated
it’s hard to find my place when you’re making everything so complicated
don’t forget about our segregation
how we battled for emanc+p+tion
decorated with an inspiration
taught to be stopped by a postulation
try to be what?
they say we don’t make the cut
how could i just play my part when i’m never gonna cross that gate ’cause it’s shut?
they say we’re outta control
we’re rowdy, loud, and we’re poor
don’t let them break our minds or we’re never gonna prove them wrong anymore

[outro: jayniac jr. & monosundria]
ah+ah+ah+ah+ah
buh+buh+buh+buh+buh+buh+buh
hahaha
okay
