Sugar Bear - Different View

Laugh in my face, and call me a cracker
Make fun of my mom and call her a trasher
Rip off my golds and call me a wigger
Point in my face, and call me fake N****
Call me a racist for stressing this out
Saying these words are for your kind of mouth
Just cause I'm white, you say I'm slim shady
Just cause I fight makes you all want to hate me
Just cause I am different from you
Don't give you the right to abuse
I know what us white folks did to ya'll was wrong
But why should your hatred towards me carry on?
Its not like I was there centuries ago
Whippin' ya asses and rippin' ya clothes
Stealin' ya money, rapin' ya wifes
Callin' you n*****'s and takin' your life
Chainin' you up and callin' you dogs
Saying you worthless but pickin' my cloth
You just have to understand, that was back then
But we ain't who our ancestors have been
At least not me, I'm coo with ya'll
Cause my mama taught me to see people, no color at all
Maybe if you took a second to see through my eyes
Then you would understand how hard we try
But the world can't have love if ya'll won't give up this
Now, I ain't sayin' you need to forget
I'm just sayin' you need to forgive
And I really do want a black president
These white old bags ain't doing us shit
Maybe then or when we finally do
The U.S would finally be equal, too
If that happens would you then like me?
Cause yo peeps got pride highly?
Oh would you reverse and relive old times
Making me yo slave, shavin' yo behind
Well whatever you do is all up to you
Just think about it, before you choose.
