Myles Cameron - Oreo

Copied!

{Verse 1}
They used to call me white boy on the bus
Black child in a white world, I was thrust
Kids picking on me all because
I was fuckin with Paramore, reading books

Never no apologies
Never no fitting in
Forever caught between
And still unraveling the trauma

{Verse 2}
And who am i?
A quarterlife crisis stopping short of suicide
24 with the world in his grasp
24 working day shifts for cash
24 looking for an apartment
24 feeling lost and loveless

{Verse 3}
Too black for the white kids and too white for the blacks
Shooting them airballs, wasn't running the track

Lil boy with a head full of naps
“Oreo” yeah niggas said that
Took something that I didn't know I had
Listen to rap try to claim that shit back, back

{Bridge}
So one time for the black sheep
Onе time for the losers
This onе for the outcasts
Peace, love, hallelujah

Life never been easy
Everybody got trauma
If you can uproot that shit, boy
It makes you stronger
