Lonny Austin - You Talk White lyrics

[Hook: WhoisLonny?] Baby, Can You? Take The hurt away Baby, Can You? Take The hurt away [Verse 1: WhoisLonny?] As a kid I was problematic Bouncing off the Walls Doing Acrobatics Erratic behavioral tactics in all my cla**es Had the teacher calling up my momma But I still pa**ed with all honors Cause I've never been ignorant, actually quite intelligent Just acted that way to fit in with the other kids But since I grew up, grew nuts and witnessed too much At least for my own eyes, at 13 I seen a murder that, left me traumatized I still walk by the spot in which his body lies, or where it used to lay Cause now he in a grave, 17 you can see the innocence in his face Ooh I'll never forget the day That body bag had took him away That's when It hit me like Ca**ius Clay that life's a midget, Short And when you die you just another statistic Don't really make a difference if you was, white or Black Sold j**elry or even rapped When you gone everything you have disintegrates And you can't bring that sh** to Heavens gates I wonder Why we focus on Materialistic things We can't bring with us when we die, I wonder why? I wonder Why? I wonder why we hide behind clothes, Cause the World is cold? And we don't wanna stand exposed and Naked To Face this world full of hatred and faces that resemble Satan Too... Worried about everybody else's opinion Falling Victim to the System of conformity I tried to fit in, but failed horribly They like "Lonny You Talk White" "Lonny you talk like you educated and we hate it Cause we know you going places" White kids like "You way too n******gish" "And we ain't tryna hear the words coming out your n***a lips" Damn I'm such an outcast, where the Hell would I be without rap? [Hook] [Verse 2: Spazzy D] Look, 24/7 365, 5-0 sitting outside my local 5 guys Looking for somebody resembling my size Black skin, nappy hair, who stand about 5'9 So he can get arrested and beaten like 5 times times 5 25 to life for no crime In No time I started to rhyme and got a head like the flip of a dime U want 5 dimes instead like 50 cent get rich or die trying To get all of this money but you can never buy respect Neglect responsibility, ignorance is the enemy Anybody that's mad at me, anger never offended me All positive energy and Fiji, Please believe me Life ain't what you see on TV. Wait on my CD And to be honest it don't matter what you talk like If you sound smart they gone always say you talk white woe
