[00:30.39] No matter how hard you try
[00:43.57] You can't stop me now
[01:03.95] No matter how hard you try
[01:06.86] You can't stop me now
[01:13.30] Yes
[01:15.03] My skin is black
[01:19.07] But that's no reason to hold me back
[01:34.45] Oh think about it
[01:37.52] Think about it
[01:40.04] Think about it
[01:41.86] Think about it
[01:44.74] Think about it
[01:47.19] Think about it
[01:49.97] Think about it
[01:51.56] I have wants and desires just like you
[01:54.83] So move on aside cause I'm a comin' through
[02:00.66] Oh no matter how hard you try you can't
[02:04.43] Stop me now
[02:06.86] No matter how hard you try you can't stop me now
[02:12.84] Yes
[02:13.76] Your skin is white
[02:20.56] Does that make you right
[02:28.84] Walk on and think about it
[02:37.64] Think about it
[02:46.33] Think about it
[02:51.59] Think about it
[02:57.03] Think about it
[03:00.05] Think about it
[03:06.78] Think about it
[03:11.10] This is a message
[03:12.79] A message to y'all
[03:16.56] Together we stand divided we fall
[03:26.35] Black is a color just like white
[03:36.11] Tell me how can a color determine whether
[03:47.56] You're wrong or right
[03:55.27] We all have our faults yes we do
[04:04.71] So look in your mirror
[04:10.56] What do you see
[04:25.48] Two eyes a nose and a
[04:34.13] Mouth just like me
[04:39.33] Oh your eyes are open but you refuse to see
[04:45.66] The laws of society were made for both
[04:51.02] You and me
[04:52.26] Because of my color I struggle to be free
[04:58.77] Sticks and stones may break my bones
[05:07.91] But in the end you're gonna see my friend
[05:19.59] No matter how hard you try you can't stop me now
[05:28.65] No matter how hard you try you can't stop me now
