The Midnight
Light-Skinned
[Chorus]
I've never been what they made me, yeah
Light-skinned, good grammar, house n***a with the name on the chair
Good fuel with the button up
Stay still while they pat him down, he don't give a fuck
They see me, how they wanna
Will you love me 'til the morning?
Will you leave me with your daughters?
Don't catch me from the woodwork?
[Post-Chorus]
I'm not the one
Nah, whoa
I'm not the one
[Verse]
[?]
I'm the mixed up n***a
Fist up with a lotta rage
[?]
I'm
The nation built on the back of slaves
Look at me, yeah
Running through my city, still segregated
Black mask on my face
You don't wanna play it
[Pre-Chorus]
Woah, uh yeah
I'm not the one
Nah, whoa
I'm not the one
[Chorus]
I've never been what they made me, yeah
Light-skinned, good grammar, house n***a with the name on the chair
Good fuel with the button up
Stay still while they pat him down, he don't give a fuck
They see me, how they wanna
Will you love me 'til the morning?
Will you leave me with your daughters?
Don't catch me from the woodwork?
[Post-Chorus]
I'm not the one
Nah, whoa
I'm not the one
[Outro]
Run with me 'til the morning
Run with me 'til the morning
Stay focused
Run with me
Stay focused
