I'm white skinned wearing the black hat
White skinned wearing the black hat.. ..
And it seems as if everything I'm about has become the wrongest of wrongs.
White skinned wearing the black hat
sings the songs of freedom for all
But lately my back's against the wall
when you judge me the same way
you complian about being judged.
The 'new' civil rights rust fast
No Martins or Malcolms born to last
B L M painted big in yellow on old white streets
Faceless warriors behind Facebook posts and Tweets.
I was inclusive before the word was well known
But increasingly I find myself standing alone
Walking silently away from the judgement zone
Hearing I did this and I did that
It's a lonely life being white skinned
Wearing the black hat :
