Prozzäk - Be As Lyrics






Julie wants to get out of town
She needs to settle down
Move to a place where no one knows her
Lisa just had to get away
Nothing could make her stay
Tired of living under cover

Everybody knows somebody trying to get free

Be as white as you want to
Be as black as you want to
Be as brown as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you

Be as straight as you want to
Be as gay as you want to
You can wait if you want to
We all need something to hold on to

And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be

Daniel moved to another school
Alliances can be cruel
When you're alone without nobody

Michael begged Jen to take a stand
And fight for the love they had
But she'd rather deal with being lonely

Everybody's got somebody telling them what to be

[Chorus]

And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be

Na na na na na na...
And if there is a way that you and I could both be free
Have a little understanding and we will be

[Chorus]

Be as shy as you want to
Be as loud as you want to
Be as small as you want to
Don't let anybody stop you

Be as thin as you want to
Be as fat as you want to
Be as short as you want to
We all need someone to hold on to

    Someone needs to cover this and remake it with a live video. The ultimate tribute.

  10. A.... ....

    is anyone else from the alternate universe where the kid at the end who says "be yourself" is actually the stoned looking redhead with no facial expression?

    A.... ....

    That does sound familiar, plus I also remember Berenstein Bears & Nelson Mandela dying in prison. Thank LHCs for destroying the fabric of reality.

    Now it’s all Fake “Real Life” shows that suck and pander to the LCD...

  14. K.... M....

    I truly believe that Teletoon Toon Trax was actually one of the most beneficial albums to rock kids back in the 2000's the could ever happen

    K.... M....

    I agree.

  15. T.... a....

    Fuck they're so Underrated and here they were telling just be Yourself!

  16. C.... L....

    This is such a good song with a wonderful message of not caring about what others want you to be but what you want to be

    B.... ....

    @rollizle to our generation, gay was just a funny word or something we would yell at each other on the playground as an insult. Sad but true.

  21. T.... P....

    i remember growing up to this in the 90s . and its still as good as it was as a message back then

  25. D.... G....

    I was just locking for “be as one” by twice and I misspelled it. I regret nothing

  26. E.... S....

    this is on one of the many mixed cds & tapes I made my daughter (starting when she was born) .. they all had empowering and self love themes. I knew she would get hurt from life and not always tell me.. but she could listen to these mixes and feel better about who she is. and know that she is imperfectly perfect to me.

  27. D.... M....

    I like this song

  28. C.... C....

    we need a remake of this.

  42. B.... M....

    Um...I love this???

  43. R.... D....

    This should be the Anthem of Acceptance, we gain nothing from Hating people, but we can Gain So Much if we are just open to understand that everybody is one of a a kind, we are all different!

    “That’s a good thing”😉💖

    R.... D....

    Thanl you for your insight Rick.

    R.... D....

    I totally agree with that. Excepting people for who they are. But most of all, excepting yourself. ✌️

  44. s.... d....

    Social marxism will never be cool
    Be as murderous as you want to

    s.... d....

    i love the new prozzak lineup feat. jordan peterson

  45. D.... ....

    the art style is the most early '00s thing I've ever seen. Post-90s aesthetic take me back

  46. D.... C....

    I feel like i heard this like almost 20 years ago

    D.... C....

    D Chaps Close. Was released in 2000.

  47. E.... C....

    this fucking song is so pure i always laugh because i LOVE IT

  48. V.... R....

    Old school

  49. a.... ....

    Prozzak was way before it’s time. This song speaks absolute truth of what people go through on a day to day basis. Then and now.

  50. S.... C....

    "be as white as you want to"

    that line, will trigger SO many people today.

    S.... C....

    people have a funny way of looking at the context of the line proper

    "be as white as you want to" is followed up with a bunch of "be as (skin color) as you want to" statements, thus making the whole thing acceptable since it's actually about promoting racial harmony.

    "it's okay to be white," removing for a second the fact that it was a false flag by /pol/ to show "how stupid the liberals are," isn't followed up by anything else, nor does it have that implied statement. it's just there - solo. there's no hidden "as well" statement like "black lives matter," but rather plays from what most people think what "black lives matter" actually means: "only black lives matter." it's a statement of supremacy disguised as concern and hope. if the "it's okay to be white" people wanted to make the statement less incendiary, they'd have other statements on the posters running concurrent with "it's okay to be white."

    it's okay to be white, yes, but it's not okay to state that being white is the only normal.

    S.... C....

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    S.... C....

    i don't see any triggered comments except you

    S.... C....

    @Hal Emmerich Thats retarded bro. All it did was show that its not ok to be white. Its just the same as blm.

  51. s.... h....

    remember watching this back in 2000 on much music! when i was 14. lyrics still holds strong more than ever. thanks prozzak!

  52. A.... S....

    liberals would lose it at the first lyric be as white as you want to. Triggered!!! lol

    A.... S....

    Alan Stober Conservatives would lose it at “be as gay as you want to”. My religion!!! lol

    That’s how stupid and unnecessary your comment sounds

    A.... S....

    @Kurfluffle He's not wrong at all, black supremacy is rampant in the modern day. Not only that but just anti white agenda and propaganda absolutely everywhere. People are very very much openly racist toward us white people now days. You can deem that stupid if you want, but that doesn't make it stop being real, dumbass.

  53. U.... ....

    Today I decided to be the blackest that I can be.... and no one out there is going to tell me otherwise!!

  54. S.... V....

    Shammi brought me here!

  55. C.... s....

    I've been looking for this group for about 11 years and I finally found them!

  56. Y.... N....

    Prozzak more like Wokezzak

  57. S.... B....

    Oh if only the world could follow the guidelines.

  58. C.... P....

    I remember having this song recorded on a tape cassette, which I taped off the radio like 15 or more years ago when I was in high school and I used to listen to the song all the time. I saw just about every prozzak music video back in the day, but surprisingly I never saw this music video until the first time today. o.o I honestly didn't even think the song had a music video for it.

  59. A.... H....

    the true gay allies lmao

  60. S.... ....

    I needed this. I think everyone needs this.

  61. M.... T....

    Dear God,

    I pray thee, now.
    Not playing technology in the day and night.
    Do your #Superbook right now, I say.
    Don't be act like a crazy!

    Be yourself.

    M.... T....

    2:46-2:57

  62. R.... D....

    It's Pride In Vancouver Today, and I listened to this when I was a Preteen, and now this song has the same if not a more deep meaning to it!

    💖Prozzak

  63. J.... J....

    This is a great video to promote understanding! Its just sometimes people want to be the wrong things. Its definitely good to understand why people want to certain things and not ostracize them but if a thing is wrong, it still should not be done. Like you cannot be as cheating as you want to or be as lying as you want to. Those are wrong. Be you can be as shy or loud as you want to. The point is you have to draw lines somewhere; you cannot be whatever you want. Great video and song though!

  64. C.... ....

    where were u when prozzak ended racism and homophobia forever

    C.... ....

    No alive

    C.... ....

    Not to mention ending prejudice against interracial couples!

    C.... ....

    They they Said Vancouver!
    I’m close to there and Gay!💖
    love you All!

    C.... ....

    Kindergarden

    C.... ....

    still going on today sadly they just bring silent about it today hey that why people like that will never move follower in life unlike rest of us who accept anyone for who there are already lol

  65. E.... C....

    im losing my shit so much im so fuckin high

  66. T.... H....

    FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    A PROZZAK VEVO WITH ACTUAL GOOD QUALITY VIDEOS!!!!!

  67. C.... ....

    url has 2toHkey in it

  68. D.... R....

    A few weeks after Jack Layton had passed away, I heard this song while passing by the last place that I had ever seen him in person.

    I bawled my eyes out.

    D.... R....

    awwww i miss him too

    D.... R....

    I miss ol' Jack. I think I'd have lost faith in politician's ability to be sincere by now if Jack didn't come by and get my first ever electoral vote. I don't vote NDP anymore, but I won't ever forget that good people are out there too, they're just tits deep in the swamp. Thanks Jack, RIP.
    ....I cried a little typing this.

  69. O.... T....

    the true allies we need

  70. C.... ....

    Finally a VEVO Prozzak channel 🤘😎

  71. B.... D....

    i have a feeling trump voters would really hate this song

    B.... D....

    Fruit God You would be wrong about that. :P

    B.... D....

    so would Black Lives Matter

    B.... D....

    It’s okay to be white.

    B.... D....

    Skeptical Chris nah. I support BLM and I love this song.

    B.... D....

    Lol. I support trump. And i like this song

  72. S.... ....

    I was looking FOREVER for this song, I knew it was Prozzak but didn't know the name

  73. J.... R....

    Simon's not even depressed in this video! I'm impressed. :)

    J.... R....

    Makes sense just because he's depressed doesn't mean he has to make the world around him depressed. If anything it motivates him more to make himself better I make everybody else around him better.

  74. L.... ....

    I absolutely love this song and listen to it so much growing up! I downloaded the album recently so I could listen to it on repeat. thanks for posting all your music videos, lots of love!

    L.... ....

    I adore this song!

    L.... ....
