Friday Morning
First off I apologise
I Just came here for a better life
Ok we're not alike
You say that it's not alright
So I pray to a different lord
You wanna make that against the law
You wanna break everything I work hard for
You wanna tear my page from history
Second I apologise
For every single other guy
You say we look alike
So I'm blamed if he has a knife
I'm dark so I am a threat
Now I'm targeted till I'm dead
I hear laughing playing in the background
As my heart stops beating
From this beating
It's a beautiful Friday morning
It's a peaceful day to die
I'll sit and watch the sunrise
I won't see the sun go down
It's a beautiful Friday morning
It's a peaceful day to die
So stream away get famous
Extreme away get famous
First off I apologise
That my skin isn't fully white (MJ)
You wear it as a cool disguise
You laugh I hurt inside (blackface)
You want supremacy
Where I'm just asking to be free
You made me pray to white Jesus
Even though his skins middle eastern
Second I apologise
That you're want me to die
Seems the media is on your side
So I guess that means you must be right
Now I'm scared to have a dream
Cause if I do that'll get me killed
I want to go pray that he keeps me safe (Charlottesville)
But I can't pray cause it isn't safe (Christchurch)
It's a beautiful Friday morning
It's a peaceful day to die
I'll sit and watch the sunrise
I won't see the sun go down
It's a beautiful Friday morning
It's a peaceful day to die
So stream away get famous
Extreme away get famous
It's a beautiful Friday morning
It's a peaceful day to die
I'll sit and watch the sunrise
I won't see the sun go down
It's a beautiful Friday morning
It's a peaceful day to die
So stream away get famous
Extreme away get famous
I Just came here for a better life
Ok we're not alike
You say that it's not alright
So I pray to a different lord
You wanna make that against the law
You wanna break everything I work hard for
You wanna tear my page from history

It's a beautiful Friday morning
It's a peaceful day to die
So stream away get famous
Extreme away get famous
