Message From a Black Man

Yes, my skin is black

But that's no reason to hold me back

Why don't you think about it, think about it, think about it

Think about it, think about it, think about it, think about

Wants and desires just like you

So move on aside, because I'm comin' through, oh

No matter how hard you try, you can't stop me now

No matter how hard you try, you can't stop me now, mmm

Yes, my skin is white

But does that make you right?

Why don't you think about it, think about it, think about it

Think about it, think about it (Think about it, think about it)

This is a message, message to y'all

Together we stand, divided we fall

Black is a color just like white

Tell me how can a color determine whether you're wrong or right

We all have our faults, yes we do

*So look in the mirror* (Look in the mirror)

*What do you see?* (What do you see?)

*Two eyes* (Two eyes)

*A nose* (A nose)

*And a* mouth just like me, oh

Your eyes are open but you refuse to see

Laws of society were made for both you and me

Because of my color, I suffer to be free

Sticks and stones may break my bones

But in the end, you're gonna see my friend, oh

No matter how hard you try, you can't stop me now, mmm

No matter how hard you try, you can't stop me now
