Am C F
 
[Verse 1]
AmThey gon' try to call you names
CLabel you with things till you're ashamed
FYou're a racist or a sexist, white supremacist or gay
Am CThey'll attack your reputation, claim that you're the one to blame
FAnd try to make you hate yourself for ways that you behave
AmThey're just names
C
Embrace them and they'll never cause you pain
FThey're just words that another person thought up in their brain
AmThey're just names
CThey Do not define you, that's insane
FAnd they'll just call you somеthing different if you change
 
Am CCall mе racist, I don't make no BLM donations
FI can stand with black folks without a branded corporation
AmAll this systemic prejudice
C FIf you live in this nation you're privileged, black or Caucasian
Am CCall me transphobic, but I support you and your policies
FI just can't ignore the very basics of biology
Am CAll I see is men and women trying to live in harmony
FNot a hundred genders that you wanna be
Am CCall me snowflake cause I'm offended, I ain't stone faced
FSocial justice warriors destroying us with woke ways
Am CMad because they voted for the POTUS with the most hate
FMan I miss the old days
 
[Pre-Chorus]
AmCall me loser
Call me bigot
CCall me stupid
Call me bitter
FCall me ugly
Call me cracker
Call me douche or call me triggered
Am CYou can call me what you want cause at the end of the day
FMan, they're just names
 
[Chorus]
Am FGo ahead and call us names dawg, Do your thing
CWe ain't trippin' cause we heard it all before
Am FGive a damn about the names dawg, we feel no pain
CYour words ain't gonna hurt us anymore
Am FGo ahead and call us names dawg, Do your thing
CY'all are trippin' but I hope you find the lord
Am FGive a damn about the names dawg, we feel no shame
CCall us anything you want, I'm gettin' bored
 
[Verse 2]
AmThey gon' try to call you names
CLabel you with things till you're ashamed
FRepeat it till you really start believing what they say
Am CThey gon' stamp it on your forehead and scream until you break
FThey love to say they woke, they ain't awake
AmThey're just names
CAfraid of anyone who ain't the same
FSo they classify your thoughts as controversial, not ok
Am CThen they cancel you till everything you have all gets erased
FThey tryna tell the world you're bad, they're just names
Am CCall me conservative or liberal, republican or democrat
FI'm somewhere in the middle but y'all don't know what to Do with that
Am CThe system got you so obsessed with classifying right or left
FYou never call a person human, call 'em names instead
Am CCall me sexist, men run the world cause they're aggressive
FBut behind every man there's a woman just as successful
Am CWe will never be equal and in every way that ain't helpful
FOur differences are why we're great together
Am CCall me white devil, I know you think the system favors me
FMy privilege is residual, benefits from the slavery
Am CSubconscious prejudice embedded in the system made for me
FDon't mean I never struggled to survive, I guess we ain't agree
 
[Pre-Chorus]
AmIgnorant and jaded
CCall me dumb, uneducated
FCall me idiot or redneck or delusional or crazy
Am CCall me anything society has taught you to say
FCause at the end of the day, they're just names
 
[Chorus]
Am FGo ahead and call us names dawg, Do your thing
CWe ain't trippin' cause we heard it all before
Am FGive a damn about the names dawg, we feel no pain
CYour words ain't gonna hurt us anymore
Am FGo ahead and call us names dawg, Do your thing
CY'all are trippin' but I hope you find the lord
Am FGive a damn about the names dawg, we feel no shame
CCall us anything you want, I'm gettin' bored
 
[Bridge]
Am C FYour sticks and your stones might break my bones
Am C FBut your words don't hurt
FSo give me your worst
Am C FStupid, loser, ugly, poser
Am C FMoron, liar, crazy, loner
 
[Chorus]
Am FGo ahead and call us names dawg, Do your thing
CWe ain't trippin' cause we heard it all before
Am FGive a damn about the names dawg, we feel no pain
CYour words ain't gonna hurt us anymore
Am FGo ahead and call us names dawg, Do your thing
CY'all are trippin' but I hope you find the lord
Am FGive a damn about the names dawg, we feel no shame
C AmCall us anything you want, I'm gettin' bored
