Black Mans Word |
| 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 |
