Of Mixed Descent

Of mixed descent
Never understood what this meant
It made no sense
Cuz I ain't descending
I'm a legend
Keep ascending
Boy
Still I rise
Look through my hazel eyes
I put it all on the table guys
No fable lies
Just a stable mind
How He such an asshole but his logics so right
How his pops so black but he came out so light
I might be the first light skin too light for the house
But I bet I ain't the right type of white for house
Them racist sniping me out
Young mulatto
Who got flow
So all that hating can stop
Ill make my way to the top
Getting tased by the cops
Is how you blatantly spot
That I relate to my pops
My genetics
Make it hectic
For me to get respected
In the same hood as my brethren
Homie I'm still growing up
But Progress is progress even if it's slowing up
Sometimes I’m Insecure about my skin tone probably cuz my fathers almost as black as they come
And Most people don't know I'm a nigga they just think I'm acting like one
And when I say nigga that shit gets deep and most people don't wanna see
I got some white friends that think they can say it in front of me
They just play with it cuz they don't wanna be
Associated with none of these
Troubles we
Encounter commonly
And that troubles me
But fuck it what am l about
Im just tryna own some land, buy a house
And Enjoy the freedoms that this country lied about
Let's ride it out
