[Pre-Chorus]

I got sold a dream, and woke up with a nightmare

Call Dr. King, and tell him it ain't right here

They don't want no peace, wantin' us to fight, here

Ah, yeah, it's quite clear, yuh

[Verse 1]

I don't see races, I'm color-blind

And I don't speak racist, I'm color mime

How come when we babies, our color fine?

But, somewhere along the way, man, we done lost our mind?

[Verse 2]

I don't understand these technicalities

And, what exactly makes someone a special nationality

Take me, for example, you see, tеchnically, I'm white

But let me gеt my summer tan on, you can't see that boy at night, right?

[Verse 3]

And please don't think I'm playin', 'cause I'm serious

I just play it off with sarcasm, 'cause I'm furious

Come on, y'all, what year is this, how long we been hearin' this?

Bickerin' 'bout pigment, man, I swear we sound so ignorant

[Verse 4]

Actually, we ignent, hatin' over pigment

As if anybody ever got to choose they pigment

And, if that ain't bad enough, we gonna teach our kids this

So generation after generation, just relives this nightmare

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause, I got sold a dream, and woke up with a nightmare

Call Dr. King, and tell him it ain't right here

They don't want no peace, they wantin' us to fight, here

Ah, yeah, it's quite clear, but oh-oh, no

[Chorus]

I ain't gon' hate, he saw love

I ain't gon' hate, he saw love

I ain't gon' hate

I ain't gon' hate

I ain't gon' hate, oh-oh, no

He saw love

Yeah, love

Uh, he saw love

[Verse 5]

But that what they want us to know, no, that ain't what they want us to see

They want when I see you, and you see me, we see enemies

You got yo' gun, I got my gun, and now we both thinkin' squeeze

They want us runnin' through these streets, just terrified of police, no peace

[Verse 6]

They rather white and blacks hate each other

Fight and act, like some type of maniac

But I refuse, I refuse!

I won't fall into that trap, nah

I'm seein' straight through that, 'cause if that's how we all react

Then we all lose, we all lose!

[Verse 7]

Crushin' us, throwin' fuel on the fire with they lies

And agendas, strength in numbers, so they want us all divided

And, I'm so tired of Facebook dissin'

You so tough, then face the system

Let's change our thinkin' 'to e-racism, let's go!

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause, I got sold a dream, and woke up with a nightmare

Call Dr. King, and tell him it ain't right here

They don't want no peace, wantin' us to fight, here

Ah, yeah, it's quite clear, but oh-oh, no

[Chorus]

I ain't gon' hate, he saw love

I ain't gon' hate, he saw love

I ain't gon' hate

I ain't gon' hate

I ain't gon' hate, oh-oh, no

[Pre-Chorus]

I got sold a dream

Someone call Dr. King

They don't want no peace

Ah, yeah, it's quite clear, but oh-oh, no

He saw love

[Outro]

Man

How long we gon' keep trippin' over this?

The same obstacle, the same hurdle, the same issue, man

Damn, unh

Yo' skin is black, my skin is white, nah

We can't unite, we gon' fight

Oh, that's right

Yo' skin is white, my skin black

So miss me with yo' dafts, we s'posed to scrap

L-L-L-Lord have mercy, controversy

E'rybody talkin' 'bout what's in my verses

And I don't even understand what I did wrong

'Cause, I just live my life, write it down, and put it to song

Way I see it, I done kept quiet way too long

'Cause, I done been had these feelings, now they way too strong

So I speak truth and love, 'til the hate is gone

Until the truth above comes down to take me home, gone
