Peyton Pearson - Black lyrics

Hey you guys I'm Peyton Pearson And I'm black A lot of people see me as black Which I am But, yeah My friends often say I'm the whitest black guy that they know Which is ironic because my skin color tells me otherwise How do I act white? How does a white man act black? How is it that just because I don't talk like I'm a gangster or a thug And I speak with a specific eloquence That I'm automatically labeled as a black person Trying to “act white” I'm so much more than black Fun fact: I'm a guy I'm 16 I'm a Gemini I'm a rapper I bake And I'm a singer I'm many things A lot of things really A lot of things that come before but apparently are less important than the fact that I am- Black See, when you see me in the street with my gla**es instead of shades A pen instead of a grenade And a backpack on my back that is literally a Nintendo entertainment system controller What are you gonna do? When I come into the room will you call me human or will you call me black? When I'm called in for an audition will you call me Peyton or will you call me black? See when I tell you that the first 12 digits are 3.141592653589 of pi; are you gonna call me a nerd or are you gonna call me a n***a? Because I'm basically, just black And to some people that's literally all I am But I'm so much more than that I'm beautiful I'm lively I'm awesome I'm calm And I'm kind I'm a kind person Wait wait B-l-a-c-k Damn That's a coincidence
