Open Mike Eagle, Sammus - Racism 2.0 Lyrics

Y'all heard that new racism?
(Nah, G, racism washed up)
That new racism hard ya'll
Y'all thought racism went away, it never retired
(Nah, racism wack, G, I ain't tryin' to heard that Racism washed)
Racism came back on ya'll, yeah

Racism got canceled, but just to pretend stop
Now it's back with a whole new season to binge watch
It's Racism 2.0, the sequel
A grass-roots, Kickstarter funded through Reboot

So, Racism has got a dope marketing team
They using black folks and black quotes
To market they memes
When they done riding our backs
They'll just park 'em and leave
Pull the rug, they won't even have the carpeting cleaned

Yeah, yeah, I hear it's up for a book deal
They say it's CGI, I think it looks real
It's got merch', you can buy you a shot glass
Racism posts links, subscribe to its podcast

Now, Racism got cornrows and know it's a cash crop
And wish it could adorn 'fros or rock a big flat top
Or racism is down, 'cause it listens to Black Thought
And they can do the round with some kids in a flash mob

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Performin' best in the poor regions
And expected to win big this award season

Meanwhile, I'm over here with the have-nots
Black, fat assed, nappy locks, writin' rap bops
Of props to my dad's Uncle, captured in padlocks
Shot by U.S. government Black Ops

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It had another banner day to day
Racism was trending and did a Reddit AMA
And fans of racism are doin' cosplay
With tiki torches, yellin' slurs in your hallway

Racism had a pop-up shop
Don't be sad if you missed out
I think I got the code for a discout
I heard it's one of racism's fanbases favorite phrases
Sans spaces and upper cases, "IAIN'TARACIST"

Thought it was washed
But it dropped a new joint though
Went to the lab
Came back with a new school flow
Is it a bird, or a plane, or a UFO
It's even worse, it's Racism 2.0

Thought it was washed
But it dropped a new joint though
Went to the lab
Came back with a new school flow
And it's invisible so you can say that you don't know
It's sneaky, it's Racism 2.0

I am not a racist
I fuckin' love black people
I fuckin' love the blacks
Yeah, I love those guys
