Nssa Lyrics by TRA1N

Midnight Run

2018

Look
Don’t never let nobody tell you who you are
Just cuz you don’t fit
Into somebody’s box of comprehension
Doesn’t mean that you’re existence
Isn’t a reality
You gotta get out here
And define yourself
Learn some to earn some
Just make sure
You’re staying true to you

(Verse 1)
Uhh
Look
I ain’t no culture vulture
I Ain’t no poacher
Or no poser
If you wanna snow about me
Then we can speak with composure
Just make sure you’re ready
For validated exposure
Cuz the story that I’ve composed
Will really have your head exploding
Yea I went to Howard
It was like a roller coaster
But I actually graduated
I could show you the diploma
And Yeah, it made me woke-r
So authentic you can’t broker
My style or my acceptance by
Community and culture
I understand I ain’t black
But that won’t change where I’m at
I’m prolly good in your hood
Just point it out on the map
I been there and done that
I get hugs, I get daps
I can’t change who I am
But I can change how you act

(Chorus)
I am who I am
And I’m not who I’m not
Y’all can accept me for me
Or just get sick at the thought
But I need y’all to understand
That all that hatred is taught
So y’all can love me for me
Or you could hate who I’m not
I said I am who I am
And I’m really not who I’m not
You can accept me for me
Or just get sick at the thought
But I need y’all to understand
That all that hatred is taught
So you could love me for me
Or you could hate who I’m not (who I’m not)

(Verse 2)
They wanna ask me “what’s my angle”
Well y’all can check how I dangle
And then hold that
Cuz I ain’t here for no slow claps
Or no soul traps
And I make it look good like a toe tap
But I can’t even take the field
Cuz y’all ignorant or y’all dumb as fuck
You think the anthem is why we kneel
Y’all want me to teach from books
Instead I taught my kids morality
Anything that I could
To extend their juvenile mortality
And they proud to be my pupils
Some more proud to be my peers
Invested salary
And showed exactly how to be
True throughout the years
I see there’s privilege
In my lack of melanin
I understand that
I’m just tryna bridge that gap back
Hope you see that where you stand at
And I guess my story’s crazy
Couldn’t change me if you hazed me
And you really think you hate me
You could blame the block that raised me (YALE)

(Chorus)
I am who I am
And I’m not who I’m not
Y’all can accept me for me
Or just get sick at the thought
But I need y’all to understand
That all that hatred is taught
So y’all can love me for me
Or you could hate who I’m not
I said I am who I am
And I’m really not who I’m not
You can accept me for me
Or just get sick at the thought
But I need y’all to understand
That all that hatred is taught
So you could love me for me
Or you could hate who I’m not (who I’m not)

Am who I am
And I’m not who I’m not
Accept me for me
Or just get sick at the thought
But I need y’all to understand
That all that hatred is taught
So y’all could love me for me
Or you could hate who I’m not

I said
