I can't relate to a lot of it, because I still live in the Bahamian shell and was shielded from rascism for the most part of my life by my black mother and white father. But you've warned me of what my experiences abroad may be like...here I am white. There I will be black...thanks for the heads up. Your lyrics are brilliant, your mind should be treasured.
