lyrics

Black Boy Run

Wake up
I wake up
I wake up to sunny skies
And post racial lies
I feel the heat and the fear

Unconsciously clinching purses
Crossing the street to avoid
Paid to divide
Retail smiles
Black ads placed near
Crime sections

Black boy run
As fast as you can
Black boy run
As far as you can

Black boy run
As fast as you can
Black boy run
As far as you can

Passive aggressive tendencies
Subtle micro aggressions 
From city to city to shore to shore
Broken white picket fences

Black boy run
As fast as you can
Black boy run
As far as you can

Black boy run
As fast as you can
Black boy run
As far as you can

As far as you can
As far as you can
