Kular of My Skin by THERON J.R. encapsulates one’s honest experiences battling prejudice most people face based on their skin color. The words and phrases used in the lyrics are so powerful and meaningful because they don’t use any complicated language. He poses questions that most colored people have pondered but never voiced. The questions asked by THERON J.R. tend to be rather uncomfortable and honest. He questions whether people’s fear of him stems solely from plastering judgemental notions based on skin color. This honesty creates great emotional impact.

Throughout the song, THERON J.R. does not solely describe agony, but also extends an invitation to understanding. He does not yell or hit, rather invites gentle attention to the fact that he is not a danger, imploring to be regarded as a person. There is a point where he notes the absurdity of dark-skinned people who dread him for dark-skinned people, yet spend bucks on tanning their form skin so they can pass off as darky-skinned. That moment is brilliantly sad depicting the ridiculousness of strong feeling towards that which is glorified on one and hated on another.

The language changes from pain to hope, ending with a message open and bountiful. THERON J.R. opens his heart and his friendship, challenging others to look beyond appearances. The insistent refrainabout judgment reminds the listener that the only way to reallyunderstand is to look deeper. Overall, the language of the song isstrong, forthright, and full of depth. They imagine someone trying to be seen for who they are—not just for the color of their skin. This makes “Kular of My Skin” an emotional and moving song that concerns identity, adversity, and the enduring need for human connection.
