Tunde Olaniran - Brown Boy lyrics

Try'n'a figure out who I am; What to be; But it’s just not happening. Lights on; look around, Check out my surroundings. Now, steady breaking through until I get understood; Try to stop me; get a splinter; Cuz I’m like “I wish they would.” In a barrel they’re found; k** each other for the crown. But when I come through your town? Break it up! I shut it down. It’s like everytime I try to get a view, They throwin shade. Now, what’s a Brown Kid to do? So instead I put them s**as-s**as-s**as on blast; And you can tell them man that he can kiss my a**. I’m every single thing you think of me: I’m a sinner, k**er, drug dealer, refugee. So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace. They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me. Because, (I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat)) You know me. You know me! Try'n'a figure out what to do, what's true; Think of any way that I can break through. Or what else, I can give, be sure I can find it. Left of the center is where I spend my time; I need to brave enough to leave the peace behind; 'Cause I could be charred up in a barbecue' But still come out and not be black enough for you. And then these questions; they can really trip me up, especially when they prove to be real tough, like "Can I be a man?" "Can I not love?" Pledge allegiance to the flag of revelation. I’m every single thing you think of me: I’m a sinner, k**er, drug dealer, refugee. So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace. They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me. Because, (I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat)) You know me. You know me! What else can I give? I can't let go. What else can I give? I won't say no. What else can I give? (repeat) I’m every single thing you think of me: I’m a sinner, k**er, drug dealer, refugee. So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace. They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me. Because, (I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat)) I’m every single thing you think of me: I’m a sinner, k**er, drug dealer, refugee. So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace. They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me. Because, (I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat))
