when will i be allowed to walk like any other kid


when will i be allowed to walk like any other kid

when can i buy a drink and candy and walk

without fear of being shot

like who knew who knew

that all the time time time that i spent spent spent

as i grew was just thru,

yeah like who knew

i thought it was cool to be black

it is 2012 the year of changes

but as much as things change they stay the same

but hey who knew who knew

i was just a kid my skin was black not blue not blue

just talking a walk but a threat perceived

but who knew who knew

i made the fatal mistake of assuming

everything was cool

who knew who freaking knew
