If you liked @MickeyGuyton's "Black Like Me," listen to, "What Are You Gonna Tell Her?"
A sample of the lyrics:
🎶 She thinks life is fair and
God hears every prayer
And everyone gets their ever after 🎶 1/ #Grammys

🎶 She thinks love is love and if
You work hard, that's enough
Skin's just skin and it doesn't matter
And that her friend's older brother's gonna keep his hands to himself
And that somebody's gon' believe her when she tells 🎶 2/

🎶 But what are you gonna tell her
When she's wrong?
Will you just shrug and say it's been that way all along?
What are you gonna tell her
When she figures out
That all this time you built her up just so the world could let her down? 🎶 3/

🎶 Do you just let her pretend
That she could be the president?
Would it help us get there any faster?
Do you let her think the deck's not stacked?
And gay or straight or white or black
You just dream and anything can happen
What are you gonna tell her? 🎶
That she could be the president?
Would it help us get there any faster?
Do you let her think the deck's not stacked?
And gay or straight or white or black
You just dream and anything can happen
What are you gonna tell her? 🎶
