lyrics

Do Better

I need all white people to not use the N word
I need all a y'all to stop touching my hair
Ask yourselves why you're shootin us down
Try to pretend to care

Just cuz you watch Insecure
And cuz you listen to Drake
And cuz you got yourself a Black friend
Please don't make no mistake

It don't give you no pass
Workout won't give you my ass
[So back off
And do better] x2

White People
You can do better
You can do so much better
Do so much better
Do better x2

If you're not defensive put yo hand up
If you're ready to listen put yo hand up
If you're not defensive put yo hand up
If you're ready to listen put yo hand up

Would you like to know how to do better?
Breezy gon tell ya, Breezy gon tell ya
Breezy gon tell ya, how to do better
Do yo research about yo privilege
Open ya mind up open ya heart up
Be brave and be strong and prepare to be wrong
Do you know about your white history?
Do you know about your Black history?
Go out of your way, read all the lit see the pics
And binge that shit like a series on Netflix

White People
You can do better
You can do so much better
Do so much better
Do better x2

about

Breezy Bay Point, California

If Audre Lorde was a rapper, Breezy would be the embodiment because their hip hop takes on topics like racial identity, gender politics, and queerness. Breezy represents the fluidity in the gray area between “man” and “woman” or “Black” and “white.”
