Worthy lyrics
by Dave B
[Verse 1]
Black skin on me look good
White man hate me what’s new
No price can’t sell my soul
Tell me what I been through
I’m emotionally broke
I can’t afford it
I know my life through yo lens
It’s less important
I was born a descendant of slaves and poverty
Polished my frame of mind
Now it’s really nobody stopping me
Auctioning off my ancestors
Damn the devil been workin how much is a life worth
He couldn’t breathe, we suffocating from the trauma since birth
Yes sir no sir
f*ck you both sir
Hands-on dashboard
Had plans to grow sir
Had no plans on dying for being as black as I am
I’m unlearning they fed us a bunch of lies
And they kept on moving the totem and told us to f*ckin climb it
And I’m supposеd to give a f*ck bout yo Target?
Google is free I’m donе educating white folk
f*ck that black screen and them story posts I’m still not sold
Grandma worked for the panthers this is deja vu
I gotta make that call soon and check on you
[Chorus]
Just know you worthy
It was designed to bring you down but you still worthy
You didn’t like the way I said it but you heard me
It’s too much love out here and I know I’m worthy
[Verse 2]
We not protecting our black women enough
How you comin down on her always she stay building you up
Seeking refuge end up dead
And wonder why she don’t trust
n*ggas love to hate they selves and that’s all they offer up
I need a new perspective
We need more access to the therapy we been neglecting
I know my answers lie in elders need to stop deflecting
Need to start making them calls and learn myself a lesson
Wrote this on Father’s Day while fathers get took away to this day Because yo mutha f*ckin fragile racist system
Got a laundry list of demands that you choose to ignore
So we got even louder brought that sh*t to your door
It’s too late for being in quiet
Ain’t no going back to normal
sh*t was never even normal
And I can’t say I ain’t avoid some awkward conversation searching For some understanding but that’s what the whole thread w the Homies is for
[Chorus]
Just know you worthy
It was designed to bring you down but you still worthy
You didn’t like the way I said it but you heard me
It’s too much love out here and I know I’m worthy
