Token

[Verse] Token black in my group of friends I'm the one that they chose to represent Everybody with my pigment, it's my job to shape perception I'm doing good so far, but I feel like raising some questions Is "you're not like the others" supposed to be a compliment? Am I supposed to abandon culture to prove my competence To you? Am I supposed to put up with your intolerance? Thought it was obvious that a token black friend is not a fix To your lack of diversity, it's almost worse to me That i'm inside your circle not naturally, but purposely I'm the one who has to answer to if you're dabbing correctly You can say 'nigga' around me, I can't even say 'Becky' I realized something was wrong When my name to my black friends became Uncle Tom They say that I forgot what 'black' meant What do I know? I'm just the token black friend [Hook] I'm just the token black friend What do I know? I'm just the token black friend Might as well give me some chains and an accent My other friends say that I forgot what 'black' meant
