| When the black man’s word was spoken, yeah
|
| And the white man thought it was a token, oh yeah
|
| We have suffered our whole lives due
|
| Doing things that you’re not supposed to do, yeah
|
| We were beaten 'til our backs were black and blue
|
| I, I was born a loser
|
| I, I was born a loser
|
| Because I’m a black man
|
| I was living in my own land
|
| I was moved because of white man’s plain
|
| I am living in a different land
|
| We don’t want no war, or fuss, oh no
|
| All we need is faith and some trust, whoo
|
| We were beaten our whole lives due
|
| Doing things that you’re not supposed to do, yeah
|
| We were beaten 'til our backs were black and blue
|
| I, I was born a loser
|
| I, I was born a loser
|
| Because I’m a black man
|
| I was moved from my own land
|
| Just because of all those white man’s plain
|
| I am living in a white man’s land |
