Black Woman in the Driver’s Seat Lyrics by Michael R. Jackson

White Girl in Danger: A New Musical (Original Off-Broadway Cast Album)

2024

Black woman in the driver's seat
Black woman in the driver's seat
Black woman grips the steering wheel
Feeling nerves of steel
From her head to her feet
Black woman in the driver's seat
Black woman in the driver's seat
Black woman makes a sharp U-Turn
Tire track marks burn
As she tears down the street
Her hair isn't gold
She ain't gone with the wind
And she might not be slim
And she's brown or dark-skinned
And she's been through some things
That she'd like to erase
Let the past be the past
So her future she can face
Black woman in the driver's seat
Black woman in the driver's seat
Black woman lets her wanderlust
Leave you in her dust
As she turns up the heat
Black woman who's nobody's wife
Black woman who picked up her knife
Black woman who took out some folks
But with few keystrokes
Can bring 'em back to...
Life
To life
To life
To life
To life
To life
To life
To life
To life
To life
To life
To life
Black writer in the writer's seat
White writer in the writer's seat
Both bringing mastery of their craft
To the latest draft
'Till the story's complete
Black writer sits down to write
White writer sits down to write
Both writers with a few keystrokes
Choose to let their folks
Step into the light
This time it won't start with our backs being whipped
And it won't end with the hashtag "I'm flipping the script"
'Cause there is always a choice to create or destroy
A choice to center black pain
Or to center black joy
Rage
Desires
Triumphs
Protests
Killers
Freedom
Allblackness
Genius
Hate
Fears
Courage
Mystery
To center black joy
Freedom
Allblackness
Complexity
Mistakes
Age

Wisdom
Freedom
Allblackness
Cynicism
Optimism
Indifference

Freedom
To center black joy
Strength
Allblackness
Beauty
Truth
Music
Friendship
Power
Freedom
Allblackness
Our dark, our light, our good, our bad
To center black-
