Being White

[And Death]

I hate when people rate you as being whack because of your skin color or your nationality so I had to express my thoughts on the subject.

Note: When I post this it's gonna fuck up my structure but y'all should be able to follow.

"Being White"

[VERSE 1]
Growin' up with skin this color has been challengin'
Nerves wear thin when they say you're not worthy of rappin'
Somebody should of told them music aint made with skin
No one acceptin' you have a lethal weapon above your chin
So now it's time for me to rip them apart limb for limb
Maybe if I was black I wouldn't be under constant attack
Y'all must be on crack thinkin' I'ma hold my shit back
Just accept the fact that not all white boys are whack
I'm here to stay, aint goin' nowhere, I've done unpacked
Piss me off and you'll be shut down by my literary hack
Yeah that's right, y'all are gettin' a little incite
Of what it's like to be me and travel at the speed of light
Anger ignites, bright enough to light up the darkest night
And don't you ever tell me that I can no longer write
Because I just might help you and your dead uncle reunite

[CHORUS 2X]
Do y'all know what it's like bein' white?
Add the fact you can rap and it's a fight
Everyone looks over the fact that you're tight
You're just labeled a wigger who no one likes

[VERSE 2]
This is the way people weigh another who don't walk away
Best believe today I'ma betray, same goes for every other day
Quick take a survey and see what people say 'bout how i spray
It don't matter 'cause I'ma still portray myself this way
Won't obey, you'd be lookin' stupid when wit my gat i squeeze play
Y'all just need accept it, I aint never gonna quit my spit
If you would just admit i'm given yo the future of rap bit by bit
With each hit that I spit, with each wrist that I slit
I'm the only emcee who's truley legit wit' the shit I commit
Omit my outward appearence 'cause inside i'm tightly knit
Swallow your pride and let it sink to your body's inside
I'm slowly becomin' known worldwide wit' every new song I provide
I won't subside like when vehicles collide, bodies and spirits devide
I carry this heater by my side for the case when i'm denied
Anger will be my guide till I die, I won't let my emotions hide

[CHORUS 2X]
Do y'all know what it's like bein' white?
Add the fact you can rap and it's a fight
Everyone looks over the fact that you're tight
You're just labeled a wigger who no one likes

[VERSE 3]
When did this start? It's like every nationality has a different heart
This discussion should be torn apart, y'all need to just play your part
Why can't we all be listed under the same column of the same chart
Let's get smart and rewind the rap game for a fresh restart
Come on all you listeners before rap and emcees are seperated apart
Let us all look through the world with the same pair of eyes
Let us all devise an enterprise where only the wise advice
Let us all take off our disguise and comprise a truthful surmise
If this was law then let's dicriminalize and further sensationalize
Everyone from everywhere let's improvise and become one with our allies
This message is what I so longed for to be read and then said
Because it is what I believe in my head and will till I'm dead
I see earth from 30 years ahead and therefore the future I dread
I'm willin' to risk death, i'm willing to be the wound of bloodshed
And all this just to get my beliefs widespread

[CHORUS 2X]
Do y'all know what it's like bein' white?
Add the fact you can rap and it's a fight
Everyone looks over the fact that you're tight
You're just labeled a wigger who no one likes

[And Death]

Oh, I guess it didn't ruin my structure...

I liked some of the rhymes and you got potential-strengths
But buckin the world will never get you acceptance-weakness

I still say do what you do everyone has opinions

[A.T.]

white or not... if you can rhyme... you can rhyme...
I dont care if everybody bugs me, or disses me about being white
and rapping... the fact is... I know that my lyrical skills surpass half of these cats who poke fun...

nobody has a choice in what color they are... you cant control
if your going to be white, black, blue, brown, green... it doesnt
matter... if you got skills, eventually people will come round...

[Keys aka Vital]

Fuck racism, i wasn't gonna read this because i THOUGHT it was gonna be wack... it's alright if you white...just rhyme

[Mystery~Murdera]

dawg, you got madd potential but work on ya rhymen a lil bit. Learned the use of Multis and wordplay. It'll help u get ya message across. overall, you got crazy potential. Hit me up on AIM sometime: guardtex

[Mystery~Murdera]

Ex of multis:

Face The Crowd

Escape The Loud

see how insteada just one word rhymin, I got a whole phrase to rhyme. Multisyllable rhyming it's called: Multis. It'll help ya flow, Eminem uses'em all the time. Most rappers who make it do. So try to get whole phrases to rhyme. Ex: the ~ will Highlight my multis
All rhymin words are same color

I Race Inside~The~Schools, Beside~u~Fools
Who Just Close Eyes n Hide~From~News
I Smile Inside Just To Disguise~My~Blues

not EVERY word in a multi has to rhyme but
the better ones usually do. You dont have to
do multis with just three words, Fabolous does
whole lines of multis as does Em, n Jayz.
I aint tryin to school u or nothin, u just got madd
potential and I wanted to help develope.

After a while multis will get to be second nature.
Don't highlight or use ~ when u use them though.
Vets will recognize it.

alright here we go! this is a topic to stir up alot of debate!! 1st i want to say i'm white too, but heres how my best friend(who is black) for many years broke it down to me....segregation in the u.s. was only 40 years ago...which really isn't that long ago.. some people still have that mindframe that was passed down from the last generation(black and white)...todays white kids are growing up on hip hop, but don't know where it came from..for decades black people have invented things or did things that white people took credit for..its true! don't try to defend it..its a fact..so when SOME black people see a white dude rappin its offensive to them no matter how skilled they are. ..lables used to make so much money off of these older mc's and the mcs got tired of it and started to come out wit their independant lables so they can keep their money instead of the "whiteman" i don't make anything a color issue and my friends don't either, but to get through life (outside of rap) you have to understand BOTH sides and respect. it will change for the good with the next couple generations of mc's because it is starting to be accepted more..what do you think black people went through for hundreds of years...not being accepted.. except it was'nt music it was life. i know all of that was a long time ago, but the older generations tell their kids about what happened to them, how would you feel if your mom or g-ma was tellin you about how they got beat for skin color reasons. that would piss me off and there would be automatic negativity. i grew up as the ONLY whiteboy rappin around here over 10 years ago, and all i was compared to was vanilla ice-3rd base-or young black teenagers(who were all white-one guy was on HOUSE PARTY 2 with the dreads). so atleast this generation has SLIM SHADY. imagine how i had to prove myself..just stick wit it and keep eatin mc's..
