steven murtonen - america (it's hard being black) lyrics
[verse 1]
this is my religion
have you ever had anybody ever say anything
with any hint of obviously you and i are different
that’s the way we’re separated by our parents
not their actions but their kids and their inheritance now it’s apparent to me
though i’m green and no authority
i was shy, naive, today it’s obvious
if there’s an -ssumption i safely make it’s that in american i think it’s hard being black
[chorus]
in america, it’s hard being black
in america, there trying to bring us back
in america, it’s hard being black isn’t it
[verse 2]
yeah you know i grew up on the streets, metaphorically at least
more really i had a house that was very small, it was a box
then the bank tried to kick us out, i guess it wasn’t small enough
who’s gonna move in? a mouse, a louse? that’d be fitting
that’s how they viewed us living near any of their towns
why do laws already break? why did lazarus raise huh?
how did we grow up in the same place? one country, but one thing really?
the funding ain’t coming to or from my runnings
wonder where we learned to be so violent and hungry, no history of that at all in this country
you know where it’s from, one goal for us america
as far as i’m concerned it’s deserved not earned
how can i be livid? yes i’ve checked my privilege
every box is filled in, i’m thinking of every moment i’ve been given
but i might as well be foreign, check the numbers now the scores in
my conclusion is of no use it’s obvious that we’re broken
[chorus]
how can i be livid? yes i’ve checked my privilege
every box is filled in, i’m thinking of every moment i’ve been given
but i might as well be foreign, check the numbers now the scores in
my conclusion is of no use it’s obvious that we’re broken
[chorus]
