Chance (机会) (Explicit) - Blood Orange (Devonté "Dev" Hynes)[00:00:00]
Genesis chapter eleven verse ten[00:00:02]
Explains the genealogy of Shem[00:00:05]
Shem was a black man in Africa[00:00:08]
If you repeat this fact they can't laugh at ya[00:00:11]
Seem to not take it too well[00:00:29]
When I tell you that it's not the reason I fell[00:00:33]
Then you know just how he felt[00:00:40]
When you look at how you gave enough chance to sell[00:00:45]
All I ever wanted was a chance for myself[00:00:51]
Why the f**k do you even speak[00:01:00]
It's not a choice of speech and it sure ain't free[00:01:05]
You split to keep your edge[00:01:11]
Stay in your corner f**k you up we lost our chill[00:01:16]
All you ever wanted was a chance for yourself[00:01:22]
To represent a thing that we have started to build[00:01:29]
Quiet refresh your soul and my spirit for me[00:01:36]
All I ever wanted was a chance for myself[00:01:43]
Been chewed up but it makes you proud[00:01:53]
You're the dark skinned ni**a in a sold out crowd[00:01:58]
Looking at the girl with the thick blonde braids[00:02:04]
And you're tryin' to make out what her t shirt says[00:02:09]
No one really ever gives a f**k like me[00:02:15]
They wanna be surrounded but they hate to breathe[00:02:21]
The air is thick as I claim my escape[00:02:26]
All I ever wanted as a chance for myself[00:02:35]
