Derrick Harriott - Message From A Black Man lyrics

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 it I have 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, ah No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now, ooh Yes, your skin is white 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, a message to y'all Together we stand, divided we fall Black is a colour, just like white Tell me how can a colour determine whether You're wrong or right We all have our problems, yes we do So look in the mirror, what do you see Two eyes, a nose and a mouth just like me, oh Your eyes are open but you refuse to see The laws of society were made for both you and me Because of my colour I struggle to be free Sticks and stones can break my bones But in the end, you gonna see my friend, 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 No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it loud No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it loud I'm black and I'm proud No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it I'm black and I'm proud No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it loud No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it loud No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it I'm black and I'm proud No matter how hard you try You can't stop me now Say it loud
