Game of Races
To be black means to be beautiful and to love who you are
We've come from Kings and Queens & have been first to do many things
Some blacks don't understand because they don't know their history like the back of their hand
Black people are courageous and have been through hell
While they were fighting for the rights we have today they were living the life of a slave
When history goes to back in the day
White people beat them hung them and called them racist names
But if you look at the world today it'll surprise you how the game of races has changed.
Black people bleach their skin to become lighter and whites tan to become darker
White people use chemicals to get the same kinda hair that black people have had since the beginning of time
But when you turn around you see black people doing the same thing to their natural hair that white people are aiming for
Neither blacks or whites can master it..
But it's surprising how the game of races has changed.
People say the darker the berry the sweeter the juice
So if your a dark skin person don't ruin the juice
By lightening your skin your reciting to every black person that you don't like the skin that you're in
So do yourself a favor and look at the world to see how its changed
My my it's surprising how the game of races has changed.
