Little Light

It's not a race it's a face issue
Just something about the way you walk
Not black or white you say
You say to my brown face
It's not a race it's a face issue
Just something about the way you talk
"Don't play that card," you say
I'll play the ace of spades

Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away

It's not as simple as that you say
You still can't spell my name
Even though it's clear as day
Even though it's never changed
They called me names like half-breed
And they said I had no identity
Messed me up when I was young
But now I finally feel free

Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away

If I don't who knows what I will say
I'll take away the comfort of this silence
If I don't who knows what I will do
I'll make this awkward, I'll make it about you

Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
Hold my breath and count to ten and walk away
