Todrick Hall - Dumb

Tekst piosenki:

But I think that's dumb

Yo, I've been writing songs since the first grade
Been running from the truth since my first fade
To get big cars
To make big stars
It takes big scars
Better get a first aid
Dumb songs are the first played
No heart but they charting on the first day
How you stay brave
When they throwing you the worst shade
Ones with the talent are the worst paid anyway
If I had blue button eyes
And blond hair
Would I make the magazine on the best page?
Be the leading man, if I was less gay
If I was a woman would you try to get me less paid
I can sing for you, but you prefer rap
Ask God why he made me out of burlap
Porcelain glass is a hall pass where I'm from

And I don't know about you but I think that's dumb
I think that's dumb

We the back bone of the green city
Never been a model but I've seen plenty
Young men and women trying to fit in
Trying to get thin
But skinny don't mean pretty
Rainbow bright colors in the air though
Color on the air but it's rare though
The proof is right there though
But it's not fair though
But they swear no
"What does he know? he's just a scarecrow."
Tell me something why we counting lessons if they don't count
Yeah the show is sold out
But they sold out
And I would rather walk in my shoes
Till the soles out
Yellow brick road
Let's travel that's the old route
My money built the man a green glass palace
Tweelde dumb ain't what they call it if you ask Alice
Why slum my brothers green thumb
Waiting for crumbs

Cuz I don't know about you but I think that's dumb
I think that's dumb

Don't find me
I got my own lane for me
Don't mind me
I'm just brain storming
Do you suppose we could sell out shows
In our clothes and no big booty crows in our videos?
Would the man ever stand for the people?
Would we demand that our love should be legal?
Would the land ever treat the greens equal?
Or will the fight that they lost become a sequel?
Cuz I'll march till it's done
To the beat of my own drum
Cuz there's a fight to be won
Stand on this post till I'm numb
At least I'm standing for something
That we can overcome

Cuz I don't know about you but I think that's dumb
I think that's dumb
I think that's dumb
