I try to figure out but I don't understand What makes one man better then another man I try to figure out if there's something I can do To change the way u see me and I see u The color of my skin, unlike the color of my eyes Is getting me in trouble, costing me a hefty price I try to stay away from all those sacred clans I'll try to stay in town, I'll try to make a stand Heads down, make sure your head's down Don't get to this town, face down Face down, make sure u stay down Don't stay in town, heads down If u look in to my eyes, u will see the color blue
If I look at u I'll see a human who is living in this town Like I live every day Trying to survive, trying to find his way If u are looking at my skin u see the color black We better look ahead then look back We better make this town a better place to live in Cuz what u are going to get, is what u are giving Heads down, make sure your head's down Don't get to this town, face down Face down, make sure u stay down Don't stay in town, heads down
