Is it because I'm white?

Is it because I'm white that I cannot listen to Tupac nor Drake.
Is it because I'm white that I cannot dance or bust a beat.
Is it because I'm white that I have to live in paradise filled with money and dreams.
Is it because I'm white that I have to be different from you.
Color on my skin man, why that got to determine what lies within my heart and my mind. Cant we all just be kind?
Or do we have to be hateful and rude to hate on each other for not even the things we do by on our tones and conditions. 
Cant we all just listen?
To you and to me, to her and to he, were all the same you see?

But of course that one white child that was raised different is a wanna be. 
To white for the black kids, to black for the white kids.
Kiss and Taylor swift aint my style, but hip hop and rap was never supposed to be.
I'm just a child that wants to show that my feelings speak louder than my outer.
Not be judged on the color of my skin, but on the content of my character. 
I'm white and im proud, you're black and you're proud, he's asian and he's proud.
We're all human, and we should be proud.

3rd grade, 3rd grade, 3rd grade. Man was that the year. Where I could read on my own, and show everyone what I've known.
Or was that the year where I noticed different color.
Certain people hanging all around each other separated like my food platter.
And there I was, not knowing which way to go, and how I was gonna get there either.
So I sat by the kids that looked like my friends back when. But once I sat down, I got that look like I better run. What did I do? I dont even know their names yet they saw me as a demon who should be put in shame.
My heart pounding, my stomach droppin and out of no where I spoke. Words came out my mouth, when my mind aint even know it.
Right or wrong...the action was made. She started laughing and my reality started to fade. 
I just didn't get it. How was I so wrong? How was I different? Age? Height? Weight? Or was it my color? Did they hate me cause I was white? Was white a funny color? Or was that just a welcoming? I'm just a child that wants to show that my  feelings peak louder than my outer.
Not be judged on the color of my skin, but on the content of my character.
I'm white and im proud, you're black and you're proud, he's asian and he's proud.
We're all human, and we should be proud.

Working through these challenges wasnt easy. Gettin torn to pieces everyday cause they thought I was a different species. I kept quiet& simple for awhile. But I knew that wasn't me, I just need one chance. Is that too much to ask for? Is askin even the right thing? I should be risky. I should just put it out all on the line, let them know that I'm Heather Bailey and I'm proud to be who I am & they should too. I'm just a child that wants to show that my  feelings peak louder than my outer.
Not be judged on the color of my skin, but on the content of my character. 
I'm white and im proud, you're black and you're proud, he's asian and he's proud.
We're all human, and we should be proud.
