JustTrae - I'm Not Black Lyrics

Overnight, across the country, the cause for justice are growing more intense
Protesters are still out on the streets tonight
Yeah, you can probably see me looking around keeping my head on a swivel here,the crowd maybe in numbers hasn't necessarily grown
The National Guard
Nowhere to be seen
The state police
Nowhere to be seen
The local police
Nowhere to be seen
The sheriff's department
Nowhere to be seen
This is a letter to whoever needs it
I'm not black but this conversation has a meaning
We all bleed the same colors but for different reasons
We in the same boat, you either swimming or you start to sink in
People kill, people steal and we get traumatized
That's a part of life we can never try to justify
I'm not black but I'm never picking who should die
We're all equal, but only you can save a life
This is a letter to whoever needs it
I'm not black but this conversation has a meaning
We all bleed the same colors but for different reasons
We in the same boat, you either swimming or you start to sink in
People kill, people steal and we get traumatized
That's a part of life we can never try to justify
I'm not black but I'm never picking who should die
We're all equal, but only you can save a life
Racism isn't born it's taught by different cultures
Everyone can start to judge before they get to know ya
I'm not black but the media portrays its vulgar, so what you see on TV is the outcome of someone who told ya
Tattoos defined by color and initiation
Someone's killing while the others doing home invasions
We all got different dreams you either leave it or you take, so when the people start to ask you don't you ever try to make up statements
This is a letter to whoever needs it
I'm not black but this conversation has a meaning
We all bleed the same colors but for different reasons
We in the same boat, you either swimming or you start to sink in
People kill, people steal and we get traumatized
That's a part of life we can never try to justify
I'm not black but I'm never picking who should die
We're all equal, but only you can save a life
This is a letter to whoever needs it
I'm not black, but this conversation has a meaning
We all bleed the same colors but for different reasons
We in the same boat, you either swimming or you start to sink in
People kill, people steal and we get traumatized
That's a part of life we can never try to justify
I'm not black, but I'm never picking who should die
We're all equal, but only you can save a life
I'm not black, but the world is trying to go against ya
I'm not black, but I'ma let you know I'm standing with ya
I'm not black, but I understand the older picture, we riot on the streets for something that going to make you die quicker
White on white crime is something you never get to hear about, but what about that when Adam shot the kids an killed himself
So Americans can portray themselves as a certain image, but maybe if I was black then my consequences would be different
This is a letter to whoever needs it
I'm not black, but this conversation has a meaning
We all bleed the same colors but for different reasons
We in the same boat, you either swimming or you start to sink in
People kill, people steal and we get traumatized
That's a part of life we can never try to justify
I'm not black, but I'm never picking who should die
We're all equal, but only you can save a life
But only you can save a life
