Skins |
Black is the color of my skin |
But there is more of me to see within |
Skins have played many tricks on me |
Skins, yes, skins is what they see |
But I am made with bones and skin like you |
Doin' hopin' for the same things you do |
For justice, peace and a place on earth |
For life existence and what it’s worth |
So stop playin' your skin tricks on me |
If my skin ain’t free neither will we be |
Stop playin' your skin tricks I say |
Tomorrow is a brand new day |
For every skin that’s here on earth |
Came to existence through a child’s birth |
The blood that molds is always red |
Life continues even when skin is dead |
Skin for you, skins for me |
When skins are black and in slavery |
No skin can truly say it’s free |
So stop playin' your skin tricks on me |
There is much more of me to see |
Stop playin' that skin trick I say |
Tomorrow is a brand new day |
Open your eyes and be wise |
Take you awake and realize |
Life is blood we all possess |
Blood is where life existence rest |
The blood that molds is always red |
Life continues even when skin is dead |
Skin is black, skin is white |
We live through the day |
We live through the night |
Skin is black, skin is white |
The color of skin is not the right to might |
So stop playin' that skin trick on me |
There is much more of me to see |
Stop playin' that skin trick I say |
Tomorrow is a brand new day |
