White Man's Dream (feat. Genesis Blu) [Remix]

Swimming upstream in a southern city

The biggest fish need the biggest pond

Ladies get invited to the good ole boys' party

If it’s low cut, D-cup, platinum blonde

I don’t sing much about boats

I never even owned a truck neither

I know tail lights, state lines, loading out late nights

Cruisin’ the country with the 18-wheelers

Sometimes I wish I was a boy

So I could be the All-American they wanted

Cause I can write, I can play, I can sing

I’m a girl sleepwalking in a white man's dream

I’m a girl sleepwalking in some white man’s dream

hoo woo!

(Genesis, Kfo, Let’s Go, yeah, listen)

It was all a dream

until it was all a scheme

Red lines, blue signs it was all for green

Promises for the cream as we rise to the top

But everybody got their shot, and they lost the plot

Now I

came here

to represent for the melanin rich

And the fros with the pigs don’t trip

Evidence

Ladies be pimps too

never let your spark die

Be light and stay true

Sometimes I wish I was a boy

So I could check off all the boxes like they wanted

Not a master or a slave, guess I’m something between

I’m a girl sleepwalking in a white man's dream

I’m a girl sleepwalking in some white man's dream

hoo woo!

Rainbow babes, you can change your names

if the pronouns don’t fit right

Jesus saves, he said love the little children

Nah, you don’t have to fit in

Cause they’re all ones and zeros

And in you is a hero

Sometimes I wish I was a boy

I could be Mr. Right, right out of Central Casting

Am I pretty am I handsome, maybe something in between

I’m a girl sleepwalking in a white man's dream

Won’t you check one box, won’t you choose one race

Well, I’m a mixed girl rockin’ on a white man’s stage

You could be queer trans straight whatever maybe in between

You could be a girl sleepwalking in a white man's dream

You could be a girl sleepwalking it’s a white man’s dream

hoo woo!

Change is a shifty thing

Beautiful thing (it’s a beautiful thing)

Songbirds, you gotta sing (tweet tweet tweet tweet tweet hoo woo)

Someday, she’s gonna rise oh yeah she’s gonna shine

Cause it was only a dream
