Is It Because I'm Black

Syl Johnson

Come Together

Together Forever

Concrete Reservation

Black Balloons

Walk A Mile In My Shoes

I'm Talkin' 'Bout Freedom

Right On

The dark brown shades of my skin, only add colour to my tears

That splash against my hollow bones, that rocks my soul

Looking back over my false dreams, that I once knew

Like a child stealing candy for the first time, and got caught

Thiefing around life's corner somewhere I got lost

I wanna be somebody, I wanna be somebody so bad

You see, I want diamond rings and things, like you do

And I, I believe, I believe I can break away

And some of us, we tried so hard, we tried so hard

I want you to know that I don't speak for myself

Ya see, if you have white-like brown skin and a high yeller

So we all got to stick together right now

This I wanna say to you my sisters and my brothers

We've got to make it a little bit further

We've tried so hard, so hard to be somebody

We've tried so hard, although, they're holding us back

And it stairs the reason, that they're doing us like that

But hey, we can't stop now, we can't stop now

We've got to keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on

I know and I know and I know that you know that I know it ain't right

Oh, it ain't right, it ain't right, it ain't right

They're holding us back, they're holding us back

I wonder, sometimes I sit down, sit down and I wonder
