Nativity Trip

Intro:
Momma
People talk to me bad
The world is telling me I shouldn't be myself
You saw it coming
Momma
As you say way back when
The world will have to find a way to understand

Chorus:
Momma
People talk to me bad
The world is telling me I shouldn't be myself
You saw it coming
Momma
As you say way back when
The world will have to find a way to understand

Verse 1:
My first best friend was a white guy
We didn't know nothing ‘bout racial ideas
Facial features got him ahead with the ladies
Brown skin, got me cast out by the kids

I spoke more English than Bahasa
But even back then it didn't make me cool
Anguished by the hate I took from schoolmates
I shouldn't use a language cuz of how I look

Jump 5 years, I walk around with a head bop
Pick on me cuz I only listen to hip-hop
I feel empowered when I listen to the lyrics
But all they see in me is another wannabe Tupac

I hit ‘em up, like I get around with best
Switch it up, all eyez on me I gotta impress
But when I come home Dear Mama, She tells me
Ain't nothing better than being myself
There's no one else

Chorus:
Momma
People talk to me bad
The world is telling me I shouldn't be myself
You saw it coming
Momma
As you say way back when
The world will have to find a way to understand

Hook:
Dang na taraithon tagonan ma pinonggolhon
Dang na tartangishon, tagonan ma tinortorhon
Dang na taraithon tagonan ma pinonggolhon
Dang na tartangishon, tagonan ma tinortorhon

Verse 2:
Momma, is it all as it seems?
I wonder what it all really means
Got a head full of dreams, but it gets lost in translation
All they see is how less of a person you are
Play comparison or straight cursing who you are
A hell of our creation
Meditate or medication?
One day, I'll find my way
One day, though not today but
One day, I'll be alright
All I need is space and time
Take me where I could dream of what I could be
Help me realize
Take me where I could finally be truly alive

Interlude:
Fantasi yang menggila bercampur rasa kecewa
Pelan-pelan hilangnya jadi sepercik cahaya

Chorus:
Momma
People talk to me bad
The world is telling me I shouldn't be myself
You saw it coming
Momma
As you say way back when
The world will have to find a way to understand

Hook:
Dang na taraithon tagonan ma pinonggolhon
Dang na tartangishon, tagonan ma tinortorhon
Dang na taraithon tagonan ma pinonggolhon
Dang na tartangishon, tagonan ma tinortorhon

Verse 3:
Momma said Momma's son should learn let go
He should learn to live it in the moment
Don't cry when it's over, let it be over
You can still dance, to the music in your soul

Momma said Momma's son should learn let go
He should learn to live it in the moment
Don't cry when it's over, let it be over
I can still dance, to the music in my soul

Hook:
Dang na taraithon tagonan ma pinonggolhon
Dang na tartangishon, tagonan ma tinortorhon
Dang na taraithon tagonan ma pinonggolhon
Dang na tartangishon, tagonan ma tinortorhon

Outro:
Momma
People talk to me bad
The world is telling me I shouldn't be myself
You saw it coming
Momma
As you say way back when
The world will have to find a way to understand
