code switching - jak knight lyrics

Loading...

(verse)
as a black kid, you gotta learn this handy trick of social self*defense
you gotta switch up your speak and give your manner a tweak depending on the audience
i’ll be will smith witty, or cool like diddy or affable as you please
cause when you’re young and black, you develop a knack for putting the world at ease

(chorus)
it’s called code*switching
and i’m a master of the dial
i’ve got a different me for every situation
no matter black, white, old or young
i can tune in to your tongue
and n0body can tell which one’s the real me, yeah

(bridge)
for those timid white suburban moms i’m humble, saccharine*sweet
just a skinny kenan thompson, ma’am, no need to cross the street

for older blacks, i’ll dial it back, play the respectful grandson role
they don’t care for rap or hip*hoppity cr*p so i’m warm as motown soul

and i can charm the old*school italian cats with a smile like sammy davis
but i always know that as soon as i go, they go straight back to stone*cold racist

(chorus)
code*switching
got the whole world on my dial
and it’s anybody’s guess which one is me
