Brown Boy Lyrics & Chords By Tunde Olaniran

Try'n'a figure out who I am;
What to be;
But it’s just not happening.
Lights on; look around,
Check out my surroundings.
Now, steady breaking through until I get understood;
Try to stop me; get a splinter;
Cuz I’m like “I wish they would.”
In a barrel they’re found;
Kill each other for the crown.
But when I come through your town?
Break it up! I shut it down.
It’s like everytime I try to get a view,
They throwin shade.
Now, what’s a Brown Kid to do?
So instead I put them suckas-suckas-suckas on blast;
And you can tell them man that he can kiss my ass.

I’m every single thing you think of me:
I’m a sinner, killer, drug dealer, refugee.
So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace.
They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me.
Because,
(I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat))
You know me. You know me!

Try'n'a figure out what to do, what's true;
Think of any way that I can break through.
Or what else, I can give, be sure I can find it.
Left of the center is where I spend my time;
I need to brave enough to leave the peace behind;
'Cause I could be charred up in a barbecue'
But still come out and not be black enough for you.
And then these questions; they can really trip me up,
especially when they prove to be real tough, like
"Can I be a man?"
"Can I not love?"
Pledge allegiance to the flag of revelation.

I’m every single thing you think of me:
I’m a sinner, killer, drug dealer, refugee.
So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace.
They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me.
Because,
(I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat))
You know me. You know me!

What else can I give?
I can't let go.
What else can I give?
I won't say no.

What else can I give? (repeat)

I’m every single thing you think of me:
I’m a sinner, killer, drug dealer, refugee.
So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace.
They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me.
Because,
(I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat))

I’m every single thing you think of me:
I’m a sinner, killer, drug dealer, refugee.
So keep your jaw locked and I’ll keep the peace.
They act like they don’t wanna but man you know me.
Because,
(I’m a Brown Boy, I'm a, I'm a Brown Boy (repeat))
