White man, he's a bad man
White devil from the back lands
He was born and raised in his evil ways
And when they say his name, they call him, White man
Got a Bible in his left hand
A shotgun in his right hand
He was born and raised in his evil ways
And when they say his name, they call him, White man
Now, what the hell you talkin' 'bout?
I come straight out that dirty south
And I'm proud of where I come from
But it's time for us to talk it out
'Cause me, myself, I've been broke and hurt
Down and out, kicked in the dirt
Probably need some church like we all do
But hold up, let's not argue
Let's talk some facts, keep it real now
Let me tell you how I live now
I never had no special treatment
No credit cards, no type of visa
Been locked up on some bullshit
Oh, by the way, nice to meet ya
I'm Joe, friend
And I ain't gonna judge you by your skin
If it was up to them, that government
They would probably do us all in
I'm talkin' just facts now
Take a look at my background
I've been wrongfully convicted
But I went ahead and served my sentence
I've been wrongfully evicted
And I was a good-ass tenant
Half my friends are gone in prison
And the other half probably in the grave
And all the rest strung out on drugs
And I run outta words to pray
Now, as you see, we a lot alike
Still gotta keep on movin'
You ain't gotta call me a white man
'Cause damn it, we all human
White man, he's a bad man
White devil from the back lands
He was born and raised in his evil ways
And when they say his name, they call him, White man
Got a Bible in his left hand
A shotgun in his right hand
He was born and raised in his evil ways
And when they say his name, they call him, White man
Now, many times I've been homeless
And many time fought addiction
I even thought about killin' myself
When nobody else would listen
And I've been sick and tired of goin' through hell
I prayed for help, forgive me
I went to the doctor to fix myself
And they just wrote prescriptions
Been on probation and supervision
Violated, got caught slippin'
My ol' lady don't come visit
But it's my fault from bad decisions
White privilege, what's that?
'Cause I swear, I never had it
It's never been no part of my life
Reminds me of my dad
He dipped out when I was only two
A young boy, born to lose
Food stamps bought all my food
And hard times was all I knew
No new shoes when school came
Tryna to fit in but I'm too ashamed
I grew up screwed up
Heartbroken and full of pain
So, excuse me if I feel offended
'Cause you don't know what I've been through
I had a hard life, seen hard times
So, I guess we all got issues
And as you see, we a lot alike
But still gotta keep on movin'
You ain't gotta call me a white man
'Cause damn it, we all human
White man, he's a bad man
White devil from the back lands
He was born and raised in his evil ways
And when they say his name, they call him, White man
Got a Bible in his left hand
A shotgun in his right hand
He was born and raised in his evil ways
And when they say his name, they call him, White man
