thecolorgrey - twice as hard lyrics

[chorus: thecolorgrey]
it’s a shame
that’s the way it’s been oh
ever since
all we know is twice as hard
for real
they don’t know how it feels
no even keel
all we know is twice as hard
yeah, oh no
all we know is twice as hard
oh oh no
all we know is twice as hard

[verse 1: thecolorgrey]
wake up get the bread
no breakfast, n+gga
you can say your prayer, if it helps your mind
but we been too long dependin’ on religion
forced upon us has it helped us to amount?
imagine that it’s all because of pigmentation
most of us black kids once wanted to be white
only years later comes appreciation
momma used to tell me that i figured she was right
fifty+plus percent of them don’t really like us, nah
fifty+plus percent of them would send us back for sho’
fifty+plus percent of them don’t know why we came here
what has a lot to do with it the white man’s greed and the fear
the pages of history
leave us today with a mystery
wish we could rewrite those
but truth be told, then i wouldn’t be spittin’ here
now the chains are invisible
tell me how we get rid of those
do the unthinkable, be a miracle
you’d still be a n+gga though
[chorus: thecolorgrey]
it’s a shame
that’s the way it’s been oh
ever since
all we know is twice as hard
for real
they don’t know how it feels
no even keel
all we know is twice as hard
yeah, oh no
all we know is twice as hard
oh oh no
all we know is twice as hard

[verse 2: thecolorgrey]
these scars
might never fade
matter of fact
they open another gate
from rubber trees and cotton fields
up to the state lines of busses some tryin’ to hail
cut us some slack
matter of fact cut the check
if we keep it one+hundred
no amount could pay it back
yeah i said it
and i meant it
get some f+cking anasthetics
can’t go pivot in the past
neither can we just forget it
we got hopes
we got dreams
never ever let em touch your self+esteem
just keep your head high
untill we reach
dry land we keep swimming against the stream
bear with me now
[chorus: thecolorgrey]
it’s a shame
that’s the way it’s been oh
ever since
all we know is twice as hard
for real
they don’t know how it feels
no even keel
all we know is twice as hard
yeah, oh no
all we know is twice as hard
oh oh no
all we know is twice as hard

[verse 3: thecolorgrey]
time cures but time is taking its time with us
and you know there’s really nothing more valuable
r.a.c.i.s.m. is still alive
sh+t, i wish that b+tch committed suicide
look don’t call me a n+gga
police stay out my business
and f+ck them job descriptions
if that sh+t ain’t skinless
boucer let us up in it
i think it’s black music they spinnin’
i think i’ve said my piece
[chorus: thecolorgrey]
it’s a shame
that’s the way it’s been oh
ever since
all we know is twice as hard
for real
they don’t know how it feels
no even keel
all we know is twice as hard
yeah, oh no
all we know is twice as hard
oh oh no
all we know is twice as hard
