[Verse 1]
I never thought I would experience these things
Or feel these feelings, 2020 has just been so unfulfilling
I wanna find our meaning
I’m a human being — so are you
But why does my skin shine through, and why is it a threat to you
You’d be wrong if you said it wasn’t true
I just wanna live so tell me what to do
It isn’t supposed to be this way, feels like it gets worse which each passing day
I wanna tell myself and others it’ll be okay, but Hey
This is our reality— and it makes no sense to me that we can’t live peacefully like you

[Verse 2]

We wanna live in peace too, when our thoughts are projected
We are constantly neglected, and our words are rejected
It’ll never be the same for you, can’t be reflected
And it sucks cause its expectant, but what you heard
Know we meant it
We are strong, built on resilience, minds filled with brilliance
Ideas that make millions, part of this world came up on our visions And we rose to the top with full precision
(We did .. Look at this)

[Verse 3]

We are the blueprint— don’t you ever forget that
That’s the one thing you’ll never ever take back
Yeah we know you’re overwhelmed at our impact
We have the confidence & power you wanna get at
It’s sad, you wanna be me so bad, trying to follow our path
But you can’t have what I have
I am unapologetically black, and I live by that
I came from greatness and success, nothing short of the best
And we gave nothing less
We made ourselves believe, set goals to reach and those goals we achieved
And now we’re closer to our dreams
