- Cameron Forbes If I Was White 歌词
- Cameron Forbes
- I know they said that Martin had a dream
Mama said I could be anything
Lately, I don’t know what to believe
Cause people with skin like me are more likely to be incarcerated, more likely to be less educated
2021 and that’s frustrating
I’m losing patience
If one day the crowd should say my name
Hope these words will reach you from my grave
If I was white, I’d still be alive
There’d be no pain in my mother’s eyes
It just ain’t right
My heart wouldn’t race when the police are passing me by
If I was white
Maybe I would walk a little taller
Wouldn’t switch it up when they be callin’
Wealth and generations keep me ballin’
I be ballin’
Never stallin’
Maybe I’d be the ones who stands up
This ignorance ain’t bliss, no it’s a cancer
So if you see me with my hands up
I need more than your camera
And if one day the crowd should say my name
Hoping that these words won’t be in vain
Cause if I was white, I’d still be alive
There’d be no pain in my mother’s eyes
It just ain’t right
My heart wouldn’t race when the police are passing me by
If I was white
