Fire

Chorus:

I throw myself in the fire/

I got so much more than I ever gave/

I throw myself in the fire/

Think they’d rather watch me burn in the flames/

I throw myself in the fire/

I got so much more than I ever gave/

I throw myself in the fire/

Think they’d rather watch me burn in the flames/

Verse 1:

Im just an asian male/

I feel it, the hate is real/

They don’t portray us as heroes or navy seals/

Computer hackers and nerds that’s all i had to observe/

Watching Tv trying to find someone that looks like me/

And if i did they do karate or mathematics/

Or run the student body/

Sh*t, in Hollywood they do all 3/

I was the bud of all the jokes they calling me Jackie chan/

All cause these slanted eyes envisioned a master plan/

To tell the world that we don’t look like this/

Sometimes we even get the girl and a goodnight kiss/

Chorus;

I throw myself in the fire/

I got so much more than I ever gave/

I throw myself in the fire/

Think they’d rather watch me burn in the flames/

I throw myself in the fire/

I got so much more than I ever gave/

I throw myself in the fire/

Think they’d rather watch me burn in the flames/

Verse 2: Chill moody

Im a black male, in that order/

Blood of a slave, heart of a king/

But that thought’ll leave you as the next martyr/

Built the country got nothing back for it/

Tragedy, they told you never forget/

They told me fast forward/

A new day it’s different now/ i’m like its different how?

Bamboozled that’s just a different clown/

Still shuckin’ and jiving, what they value’s the crux of the problem/

They don’t hear me - turn me up on the volume/

Don’t need acceptance from who oppressed us, that’s psychological/

Attacked us mentally and distracted us with some bible quotes/

Before my time to go I swear, truth will be spoken/

Sounds resounds through every youth and we woke ‘em/

’til that cycle is broken/

Chorus;

I throw myself in the fire/

I got so much more than I ever gave/

I throw myself in the fire/

Think they’d rather watch me burn in the flames/

I throw myself in the fire/

I got so much more than I ever gave/

I throw myself in the fire/

Think they’d rather watch me burn in the flames
