| [00:22.52] |
I was born black and free |
| [00:25.21] |
I was born in the cold |
| [00:27.83] |
Cold was home to me |
| [00:30.90] |
Until I was told |
| [00:33.52] |
I was really from the South |
| [00:36.27] |
So I travelled closer to the sun |
| [00:39.65] |
But you see |
| [00:40.65] |
Flesh burning beat |
| [00:42.21] |
Got me crossing the sea |
| [00:44.33] |
Back to the cold again |
| [00:47.65] |
So here I am |
| [00:50.52] |
Here I am |
| [00:51.65] |
I'm a stranger |
| [00:53.90] |
Anywhere I run to |
| [00:58.21] |
Yes I am |
| [00:59.52] |
A stranger |
| [01:00.02] |
And I just can't seem to |
| [01:01.96] |
Find a race I could claim |
| [01:04.96] |
The roots to my name |
| [01:07.08] |
But who I am |
| [01:08.96] |
Is a man of this world |
| [01:14.65] |
|
| [01:24.21] |
This is my second shot |
| [01:26.83] |
Winter's smiling at me |
| [01:30.65] |
I'm taking this shot |
| [01:32.59] |
To be all I can be |
| [01:35.09] |
So the next place I stop |
| [01:36.33] |
Will be the land of the free |
| [01:40.71] |
A place where a million of colors and dreams dwell |
| [01:44.96] |
Sounds like a place to me, |
| [01:47.84] |
where someone might understand |
| [01:50.03] |
Just who I am, who I am |
| [01:53.09] |
I'm a stranger |
| [01:55.34] |
Anywhere I run to |
| [01:57.78] |
Yes I am |
| [01:59.77] |
A stranger |
| [02:00.40] |
And I just can't seem to |
| [02:03.21] |
Find a race I could claim |
| [02:06.34] |
The roots to my name |
| [02:09.02] |
But who I am |
| [02:10.60] |
Is a man of this world |
| [02:12.79] |
|
| [02:13.48] |
Now there's this fuss about color |
| [02:18.48] |
And everybody needs to belong |
| [02:23.04] |
|
| [02:24.23] |
But take a minute to consider my perspective |
| [02:28.54] |
You see, black kicked me out once |
| [02:31.73] |
And white took me in |
| [02:34.42] |
But white looked at me once |
| [02:36.85] |
And nearly spat at my skin |
| [02:39.42] |
I'm so confused, I'm so confused |
| [02:44.11] |
About who I should hate |
| [02:46.92] |
I figure I'll just love them all |
| [02:49.42] |
I'm a stranger |
| [02:53.98] |
Anywhere I run to |
| [02:56.42] |
Yes I am |
| [02:58.73] |
A stranger |
| [02:59.48] |
And I just can't seem to |
| [03:01.98] |
Find a race I could claim |
| [03:05.04] |
The roots to my name |
| [03:07.73] |
But who I am |
| [03:10.54] |
Is a man of this world |
| [03:12.67] |
I'm a stranger |
| [03:13.61] |
Anywhere I run to |
| [03:16.17] |
Yes I am |
| [03:17.92] |
A stranger |
| [03:19.05] |
And I just can't seem to |
| [03:21.67] |
Find a race I could claim |
| [03:24.87] |
The roots to my name |
| [03:26.77] |
But who I am |
| [03:28.76] |
Is a man of this world |
| [03:30.83] |
I'm a stranger |
| [03:33.20] |
Anywhere I run to |
| [03:35.58] |
Yes I am |
| [03:37.02] |
A stranger |
| [03:38.58] |
And I just can't seem to |
| [03:41.08] |
Find a race I could claim |
| [03:44.02] |
The roots to my name |
| [03:46.08] |
But who I am |
| [03:48.33] |
Is a man of this world |
