Ignorance Is Bliss

(专辑： Everyone We Know - 2017)

[Jeswon:]
What's popping bruh?
Yeah tell me what's cracking
Yo what the fuck's happenin?
I'm half Anglo-Saxon dawg
The other half's Latin
I'm basically smashing it
I blend in with the masses but
I live in a spot where reality's hideous
I gotta come clean on my privilege
I gotta tell you how it really is
I got male privilege
Straight privilege
White privilege
Get it every single second of the day
Every minute of the night type privilege
So when I hear a white person whinging
About how really they don't see privilege
I'm like you're a straight up idiot
You can not be serious
If you don't see that the systems insidious
Twisted and really designed for your benefit
Then you're the silliest cracker I've ever met
Rendering all your opinions irrelevant
Whoa!
And I ain't repping it
But can choose to ignore so I'm living at large
The agendas supremacist
Look at my skin
I guess that I'm guilty as charged

Ignorance is bliss
Ignorance is bliss
But there's Ignorance in my pigment
Do I get Ignorant and get lit
If I don't admit to my privilege
From the pigment up in my skin
Then that's dumb shit
Play the victim
'Bout as ignorant as it gets

Ignorance is bliss
Ignorance is bliss
But there's Ignorance in my pigment
Do I get Ignorant and get lit
If I don't admit to my privilege
From the pigment up in my skin
Then that's dumb shit
Play the victim
'Bout as ignorant as it gets

[Tuka:]
Am I that boy in the bubble?
Am I oblivious?
Am I indifferent?
Is prejudice something I've never experienced?
Have I avoided that struggle?
Have I been ignorant?
Is it significant?
Something I choose to ignore
Or
Do I get defensive when the shit comes up?
Even though I never fed food to that thought
Hot damn!
Am I losing my mind?
School forgot to mention racism is institutionalised
God damn!
Does that mean I've done something wrong?
Is it uncomfortable to hear the words that are sung in this song?
My bad
Have I been running my lip or have I been running away?
Has it been under my nose?
Has it been in front of my face?
Why do I have nothing to say?
White man
This world keeps screaming at you
Are you to insecure to listen to the inconvenient truth

Ignorance is bliss
Ignorance is bliss
But there's Ignorance in my pigment
Do I get Ignorant and get lit
If I don't admit to my privilege
From the pigment up in my skin
Then that's dumb shit
Play the victim
'Bout as ignorant as it gets

Ignorance is bliss
Ignorance is bliss
But there's Ignorance in my pigment
Do I get Ignorant and get lit
If I don't admit to my privilege
From the pigment up in my skin
Then that's dumb shit
Play the victim
'Bout as ignorant as it gets

I'm gonna get it right
One day we gonna get it right
Right
I'm gonna get it right
One day we gonna get it right
Right
I'm gonna get it right
One day we gonna get it right
Right
I'm gonna get it right
One day
