Message From A Blackman lyrics with English Translations
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 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'? 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 color, just like white, Tell me, how can a color determine whether, You're wrong or right? We all have our problems, yes we do, So look in the mirror (Look in the mirror) What do you see? (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.
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...
I have wants and desires, just like you So move on aside because I'm comin' through 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'? 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 color, just like white, Tell me, how can a color determine whether, You're wrong or right? We all have our problems, yes we do, So look in the mirror (Look in the mirror) What do you see? (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.
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...
