White boy afraid of the mirror White boy hates history class White boy wears hood up, always White boy afraid to go outside White boy is all apologies White boy prays for baltimore White boy doesn't talk much White boy thinks he has no right White boy ashamed of who he is White boy sorry for his skin White boy can't explain what he is feeling White boy can't sleep no more

Skin
White boy afraid of the mirror White boy hates history class White boy wears hood up, always White boy afraid to go outside White boy is all apologies White boy prays for baltimore White boy doesn't talk much White boy thinks he has no right White boy ashamed of who he is White boy sorry for his skin White boy can't explain what he is feeling White boy can't sleep no more
