Track Title: “White”

ASCAP Registration #: 929073465

Let me tell you a story about a lie called “white”

Everything it stands for is purely full of shite

It’s just a made up label for eugenicist delight

Behind suffering of millions, they’ve been the blight

1670 – the year of ‘whites’ first use

I guess before that, they needed no excuse

18, 19 hundreds? No longer so recluse

A pseudo-scientific bias started this abuse

They weaponized bigotry and slandered our biology

They want to assure their own ‘white’ supremacy

Plenty of those ‘whites’ were quick to stand and say

This kind of thing is wrong and they were too, okay?

But it’s 2025 and the same themes, still in play

Kind of dumb to think they don’t prefer it all this way

1799, Charles White, so aptly named

Explicitly ranked races, openly proclaimed

Superior were Europeans with their skin like bone

Natural varieties? Lesser, clearly free to own!

Thus it went on and on, and in 1883,

Mr. Galton coined ‘eugenics’ unto infamy

So every human who is different in any way

Could be dispossessed, even owned, with little say

Conveniently disposed of if they failed to obey

Lobotomies and forced sterilization ruled the day

Plenty of those ‘whites’ were quick to stand and say

This kind of thing is wrong and they were too, okay?

But it’s 2025 and the same themes, still in play

Kind of dumb to think they don’t prefer it all this way

1920’s lynchings were what whitey loved to do

But the 30’s saw this racist karma come due

In a world war that cost us 85 million lives, too

Still academia and government continued (you know how they do)

Whitey claims it’s all past, but that’s a myth of neutrality

Still as rank throughout the world, as we can plainly see

Pundits want to debate power and ‘complex legacies’

But power seeks to serve itself, no care for our equity

This is the truth about those who embrace “White”

It’s always been a lie, a fabrication full of shite

It’s 2025 and the same themes are still in play

We must be dumb to think they don’t prefer it all this way

What will if finally take to shake us from this way?

All I know is you can’t trust what ‘whitey’ say.
