message from a black man
No matter how hard you try   You can't stop me now   No matter how hard you try   You can't stop me now   Yes, my skin is black   But that's no reason to hold me back   Oh 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 cause I'm a-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.    Yes, your skin is white   Does that make you right   Walk on and 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 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 your 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 color I struggle to be free   Sticks and stones may break my bones   But in the end you're gonna see my friend   No matter how hard you try you can't stop me now   No matter how hard you try you can't stop me now.
