ziggy ramo - black face lyrics

our black skin is not a costume for you to assume
d+mn right, i ain’t got room to be amused
we ain’t a muse for your amus+m+nt
you were born as heaven sent half of my kin wasn’t born as human
so excuse the nuisance of dealing with our feelings
this appealing black skin comes with glass ceilings
so you think you’re queening
you’re really just demeaning
the meaning of the being of another human being
what’s the meaning of all this hate? you think you celebrate
but you don’t even relate to thе state of the black fate so tеll me what’s behind your son’s black face? white skin, he could never embrace the struggle within see the difference between you’re children and nic nait is they can go to school with they books in back pack go and win a medal for they skin you paint black
head home take a shower cleanse they skin and that’s that but we can never take our black off
parents can never get back children that was lost
i mean stole from their homes
you paint you skin black, but you don’t wear it as your own australia, grow a f+cking back bone
i ain’t beating ’round the bush no more, settle the score you choose to ignore we were here before
it’s time to wipe the floor clean no shamwow got me wondering how in 2016
we got white people speaking on behalf of we
your black entertainment
i know you like goodes better as a footy player uh, and eddie betts be a monkey at best as long as the 70 others behave themselves you love them just like the rest, give it a rest it’s been weighing on my chest
why white pieces always move first in chess? why is black appropriate funeral dress?
and my country don’t care ’bout people in distress
black is not costume, black is not a face
i’m an educated blak man and i don’t know my place
black is not costume, black is not a face
i’m an educated black man, uh
my best friend had a baby, got me thinking
i don’t want her to grow up in a world that needs convincing that degrading race is somehow entertaining
the fact we need persuading or that or the fact we keep debating we got grown people acting dumb
parents please, parent your young
and to your daughters and sons
black face is not a costume, find another one
we be dj khaled, we need another one
aliyah, age ain’t nothing but a number
and race ain’t nothing but a colour
so even though your dad’s white, he is still my brother no matter what they say i always love ya
i ain’t spread hate, i spread love for one another
see that same hate for race
is that same hate to tell aliyah to stay in her place but f+ck that, baby girl, do your thing
this ain’t pc, this is easy, please believe me
this ain’t pc, this is the return of the mac
the return of black’s, the empire strikes back
’cause we in here going back to back
wouldn’t be australia without another face painted black, uh
but now it’s back to that
back to telling black’s like how to act
they racially abuse us, tell us how to react
i’m yelling f+ck that, you need to check your facts
fight for the right of whites to wear black face
but don’t fight for the rights of those with black face
man it’s such a disgrace
we need to learn our history, need to learn our place because
black is not costume, black is not a face
i’m an educated black man and i don’t know my place
black is not costume, black is not a face
i’m an educated black man and i don’t, i don’t, i don’t, i don’t know my place
i don’t know my place
