American Privilege Songtext

American Privilege Songtext
Oh it doesn′t seem right
That I, I was born White
And my parents don't fight
Told me they loved me each night
I, I don′t lose sleep for
The kids sewing my sheets, or
The ones stitching my sneaks
As long as I can buy 'em both cheap, well
American privilege
Is blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
American privilege
Is blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
Everyday I piss money away
I'm a material slave
Just trying to polish this ball and this chain
Cause I, I dont think twice, no
Just keep it outta my sight, oh
Bitch, don′t kill my vibe, no
Bitch, don′t kill my vibe, well
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
(Cash that paycheck, spend it all)
(Build that house up big and tall)
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
As long as I stay comfortable
(Cash that paycheck, spend it all)
On shit I'll throw away next fall
(Build that house up, big and tall)
Break the bank to build the wall
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
As long as I stay comfortable
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
That I, I was born White
And my parents don't fight
Told me they loved me each night
I, I don′t lose sleep for
The kids sewing my sheets, or
The ones stitching my sneaks
As long as I can buy 'em both cheap, well
American privilege
Is blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
American privilege
Is blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
Everyday I piss money away
I'm a material slave
Just trying to polish this ball and this chain
Cause I, I dont think twice, no
Just keep it outta my sight, oh
Bitch, don′t kill my vibe, no
Bitch, don′t kill my vibe, well
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
(Cash that paycheck, spend it all)
(Build that house up big and tall)
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
As long as I stay comfortable
(Cash that paycheck, spend it all)
On shit I'll throw away next fall
(Build that house up, big and tall)
Break the bank to build the wall
(Robbing Peter to pay Paul)
As long as I stay comfortable
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
American privilege
Keeps blurring my vision
Inherited sickness
