Das Racist Lyrics

White devils like it
Making references to white people as devils, pointing out their cringey behavior and attitude.

I'm drinking coffee brought to me By white devils' sidekicks
Being served coffee by white people's assistants, trying to sound laid back while subtly indicating their privilege to afford hired help.

They askin' if we like to get higher Like they hired him
White people asking if they want to get high, as if they were hired to introduce them to drugs.

The fire and brimstone is known To be composed of desire never twice lived
Talking about the intense experiences they've had with life, love, and passion.

The metal might miss, but the beveled edge Of the mind can provide tricks
Using the mind's ability to be clever, witty, and sharp to bring insight into the world around us.

To bring the light to the likes of whites and black kids As well, it's like magic, I'm not your average
Wanting to create a world where everyone can learn, grow, and share experiences regardless of their background.

Negro please, I know I'm an idiot But I got a stick and I'mma use it a little bit
Admitting their flawed and imperfect nature while also acknowledging that they can still make a difference.

I'm not too sure if I should clue in the little kids Or if I'm too clueless to move with the bigger fish
Feeling uncertain about how to approach talking to children or dealing with bigger problems.

Why it gotta be those too and not some other shit Take me to the mothership
Questioning why things are the way they are, and wishing to escape to an alternate reality.

Hate me I'm Abramovich I'm Lady Gaga, I'm a fag, I'm a lesbian
Playing with identity and celebrity culture, as well as acknowledging that there are people who hate them for who they are.

See me playin' bass in jam bands up at Wesleyan See me at a poetry slam in like '97 Singing classic numbers by Otis Redding Totally shredding
Recalling past experiences where they showcased their musical and artistic talents.

What good is this Cashmere If they're still dying in Kashmir
Wondering what the point is of having expensive things if there's still so much suffering and conflict in the world.

There was homes, now there's just dust there Next year, same as this year A rough year
Reflecting on the harsh realities of the world, and how things don't seem to change despite the passing of time.

Live in much fear, stay inside after dusk here Brush tears from eyelids Peep violence And these people is dyin'
Living in fear and sadness due to the violence and suffering experienced in their community.

I'm wildin' Old Earth said they wanna move back But they ain't got enough funds to do that
Feeling angry and rebellious, while also referencing the idea of returning home but not being able to afford it.

She had a pocket full of lint, he had a suitcase full of dreams From holdin' me to bagging groceries at the Pathmark To scoldin' me for drinking and driving in fast cars
Reflecting on their past experiences and how much has changed since then, including being reprimanded for reckless behavior.

Juvenile shit I ain't really tryin' to rap about I don't remember from b-b-ba b-blackin' out
Acknowledging that some of their past behavior was childish and they no longer wish to rap about it.

These days, I'm mostly focused on my bank account I ain't backin' out until I own a bank to brag about
Focusing on financial success, but with a goal to achieve enough wealth to make a difference and be proud of.

A local institution, life of the party With him and at him, brown Chris Farley
Describing themselves as a local legend who brings life to any party or event, while also referencing the late comedian Chris Farley.

Kalapani K?lid?sa, Vijay from Pyaasa Wiles out at night, can't breathe through his nostrils Poppa need his medicine
Referencing famous Indian artists and poets while also describing their own struggles with allergy and needing medication.

Reticent to let them in Hesitant better when In elegant letterman's And other fresh shit, to distract you
Being skeptical of people who try to get them to open up and share their thoughts and feelings, while also using fashion and style to appear more interesting and distract from their problems.

Relax relax relax relax Relax relax relax relax Relax relax relax relax Relax relax relax relax
Repeating the word 'relax' as a way to calm down and find peace in a chaotic world.
