Colored Man

My Body is literally Scared Up. My Heart Is Torn My Mind Screwed Up I'm Sick To My Stomach, but I Can't Throw Up. Unsatisfied by my performance in Life Dreaming about A Rope To End a Life Feeling Unloved from the ones that Raised Me. Tears at Night Soaks Down To the Bed Springs Look Up to My Big Brother; he is living a successful life. Look at me; my heart is dying to live right. I grew up in the slums Been Called Stupid and Dumb. Soon Got The Diploma So Half The Battle is Won My Eyes are Open Wide To see more Tears and Lies. Colored Crack and Dope fiends These Are The Days Of Our Lives. Mr. Colored Man Dare To Be Different It's Time for a Change Say, Mr. President A Colored Man Full of Emotion but Not Easily Broken, but can be Broken by a Woman Who says She loves Him Then Turns To another Man and Gives Her Love to Him Through The Shakes, Turbulence, and Aftershocks Still, I Stand A Colored Man.
