lirik lagu it is what it is – jayyyy_diorrrr
[verse 1]
i was born into activism
my skin color declared me an activist
all of my life has been dedicated to the painful art of resistance
activism or pessimism
there is no side of neutrality
in black skin, you do not have an option to choose, you can only
choose to ignore, or dissolve into pessimism, or fight as an activist
marching towards the ever moving target towards freedom
tired of explaining what it’s like to be in this black skin
[chorus]
this just the way life is
somethings will never change
this just the way life goes
things will never change
[verse 2]
crushed by the debilitating blow of never getting my brother back
the cops k!lled him and that’s a fact because he was born a black man with a target on his back
our birth certificates need to be changed to being born in “a state of emergency” when our black babies leave the hospital, our worse fear is how will our black baby come back
multiple gunshots left my brother dead and now my mother is all
messed up in the head he was unarmed but harmed
wrong color. wrong place. wrong time
[chorus]
this just the way life is
somethings will never change
this just the way life goes
things will never change
