Mikill Pane - You Don't Know Me Songtexte

A negro boy takes steps towards a white man
Looks him in the eye and extends his right hand
The caucasian holds the black guys gaze
While he calmly says "get out of my way"
The black boy doesn't want to show he's so scared
That he could wet himself so he says "I'm going nowhere"
The white man barges the black boy so hard
He staggers across the room and falls back on the sofa
The black boys eyes fill with tears of rage
But they're wiped away before they go near his face
By a white hand, the owner screams "you'll hurt him that's enough"
The voice belongs to the girl that he loves
And she loves him to so she wants to protect him
She spent months trying to get her pops to accept him
But the white man seems stuck in his ways
The negro boy gets up and exclaims

"You don't know me
How can you be so against me?
So unfriendly?
Tell me what I've done
If you've got issues then just say so
You don't know me
I'm only asking you to accept me
And respect me
Give me just one chance
I've got to much to lose to let you say no"

The white man doesn't wanna talk about it
Just as he's about to start walking out his
Daughter tells him he's an awful coward
And says she'd be alot better off without him
The white man spins around eyes all wild
And says to his daughter "you're my only child
You know what I'm about you could have done the right thing
But no you had to go and drag home scum like him
I won't be here to guide you forever but I'm telling you
Before it's to late that you should try and do
Better
All my friends have said I've lost my mind and they've had enough
They know my princess is with a guy if this caliber
And sometimes I try to ignore him
But get an uncontrollable urge to knock his lights out and floor him
I can't believe he took my princess from me
So I don't feel guilty when he says to me

You don't know me
How can you be so against me?
So unfriendly?
Tell me what I've done
If you've got issues then just say so
You don't know me
I'm only asking you to accept me
And respect me
Give me just one chance
I've got to much to lose to let you say no"

The white girls inherited the black boys tears
Now he holds her and tells the white man "you're gonna hear
Me out, I can't believe that I was actually afraid of you
I see you're daughter and wonder how that being came from you
You're disgusting and pathetic
Somebody must have said it
Before and if you think I want you're love you can forget it
I'm a straight A student, I've never been arrested
But you still hate my kind for the complexion we were blessed with
We can never all live happily
Because you think my race are just the lowest form of humanity
And thats just a tragedy
For you not for ?
You'll die bitter we'll have a beautiful family"
The white man looks the black boy in the eye
And says "everything he said was pointless
Why? It's not because you're black that I don't want you near my daughter
It's cause you're an arsenal fan, I'm a tottenham supporter"

You don't know me
How can you be so against me?
So unfriendly?
Tell me what I've done
If you've got issues then just say so
You don't know me
I'm only asking you to accept me
And respect me
Give me just one chance
I've got to much to lose to let you say no
