GENRE
[Verse]
Who dictates who I am and ain't
I can't debate the plan to stay complacent in my stance
I take a stand for those who can't today
And they try to cancel us but cancel cultures cancerous
When kneeling for the anthems worse than kneeling on a man, it's just
Very indicating, scary and infuriating
Fear and hating taking over making people sorta crazy
But that's reality, worried bout their salary
Then couldn't give a flying fuck about the nigga burning calories
Running in the street and gunned down for being too black
Sleeping in the bed (Pop pop)
No "why you do that?!"
Hanging from the poplar tree, saying it's a suicide
Got me locking doors and tryna keep my black ass inside
I just think the point is being overlooked
The black experience isn't written down in your college books
Got me shook, I feel I'm living on time that's being borrowed
If I was a hashtag, would you still say my name tomorrow?
[Chorus]
Copper tone boy please don't cry
Copper tone boy it's gonna be alright
Copper tone boy you got to get through
Copper tone boy
I. Am. You
Who dictates who I am and ain't
I can't debate the plan to stay complacent in my stance
I take a stand for those who can't today
And they try to cancel us but cancel cultures cancerous
When kneeling for the anthems worse than kneeling on a man, it's just
Very indicating, scary and infuriating
Fear and hating taking over making people sorta crazy
But that's reality, worried bout their salary
Then couldn't give a flying fuck about the nigga burning calories
Running in the street and gunned down for being too black
Sleeping in the bed (Pop pop)
No "why you do that?!"
Hanging from the poplar tree, saying it's a suicide
Got me locking doors and tryna keep my black ass inside
I just think the point is being overlooked
The black experience isn't written down in your college books
Got me shook, I feel I'm living on time that's being borrowed
If I was a hashtag, would you still say my name tomorrow?
[Chorus]
Copper tone boy please don't cry
Copper tone boy it's gonna be alright
Copper tone boy you got to get through
Copper tone boy
I. Am. You
