Interlude: Dad Was Mad Lyrics - Solange

I was the first, one of the first 

My first day, a state trooper caught me 

Put me in the backseat of the car 

And meeting the other black kids, was six of us 

And seeing all of those parents 

And also KKK members having signs 

And throwing cans at us, spitting at us 

We lived in the threat of death every day, every day 

So I was just lost in this vacuum 

Between integration and segregation and, and racism 

That was my childhood 

I was angry for years 

Angry, very angry
