[offset:-100]
[00:26.91] First man to die
[00:28.53] For the flag we now hold high
[00:30.93] Was a black man
[00:35.59] The ground were we stand
[00:37.46] With the flag held in our hand
[00:39.47] Was first the redman's
[00:44.67] Guide of a ship
[00:46.30] On the first Columbus trip
[00:48.50] Was a brown man
[00:53.22] The railroads for trains
[00:55.11] Came on tracking that was laid
[00:57.24] By the yellow man
[01:01.51][02:07.11][03:29.79] We pledge allegiance all our lives
[01:05.75][02:11.47][03:34.80] To the magic colors red, blue and white
[01:10.15][02:16.00][03:39.07] But we all must be given
[01:12.42][02:18.21][03:41.40] The liberty that we defend
[01:14.51][02:20.18][03:43.54] For with justice not for all men

[01:18.79][02:24.87][03:48.04] It's time we learned
[01:22.82][02:28.38][03:51.73] This world was made for all men
[01:32.83] Heart surgery
[01:34.62] Was first done successfully
[01:36.75][02:59.87] By a black man
[01:41.54] Friendly man who died
[01:43.11] But helped the pilgrims to survive
[01:45.51][03:08.61] Was a redman
[01:50.03] Farm workers rights
[01:51.89] Were lifted to new heights
[01:54.18] By a brown man
[01:59.01] Incandescent light
[02:00.58] Was invented to give sight
[02:02.97] By the white man
[02:33.91] Here me out
[02:38.21] Now I know the birthday of a nation
[02:43.19] Is a time when a country celebrates
[02:46.66] But as your hand touches your heart
[02:48.79] Remember we all played a part in America

[03:23.83] Signed his name to free all men
[03:26.23] Was a white man
