nur-d - black kid, white town lyrics
verse 1: nur+d
and it never changes
interviews they’re confused what my name is
every brother’s on a first name basis
my mom cut my hair cause they hate me at great clips
and there’s no safe sp+ces
to escape from the looks on their faces
and the ones that can swear that they wave at the black mailman so they can’t be racist
and jay+z’s on their playlist
and you know that he’s not but you fake it
cuz you smile and you nod cause you’re wanting thе job and you swallow the last of your patience
bridgе:
but the next one that touches my hair is gonna get smacked
it’s not a threat
(not a threat)
it’s a fact
hook:
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid
(gray!)
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid
verse 2: nur+d
second part of the song
911 when i’m passing the lawn
still, a long way from the fields where i’m from
take a look at your son, taking massa to prom and
(ayy)
you know she look real fine
porcelain skin and her hair like wine
(okay)
she came up to me and she looked in my eyes and she said we can date when her grandma dies
yeah, cuz she really wasn’t having it
see me saying grace over plates, couldn’t fathom it
silverware disappears from the cabinet
real dad’s cool, stepdad isn’t having it
and that’s really the gist of it
her momma says that i’m really articulate
aw
they tell me ” son, we’re so impressed and we get that you’re one of the good ones”
bridge:
and that is just that
and she tells me mad
“it’s funny you rap, cuz like really, i don’t even see you as black”
hook:
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid
(gray)
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid
verse 3: brandon pulphus
you ain’t racist but you can’t discuss your privilege
girl and guy is not a major difference
no cap, uptown, ready for liftoff
but i can’t even get up in the bar with timbs on
why not?
well i’m thinking that it’s obvious
it’s why when i see sirens in the rearview it is ominous
blm doesn’t mean i want a politic
catch a backhand like your compliments
black kid
hook:
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid
(gray!)
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid, white town
black kid
(hol’ up)
