You stand there calling me names
Only because of the color of my skin...

She answered the telephone
It was her husband...

She stood by he side
Watching him slowly die...

A letter came to my home just the other day
It was addressed To Whom It may Concern...

If you're Happy
Than I guess I'm fine...

I came here today with my head held high
Becuase of you I use to always cry...

Look around this beautiful world
Can you see that pretty little girl...

I walked away from family and friends
Believing that I did not need them...

The police answered a called
A body found by the underpass...

If I had only Known
When I walked out the door...

Can you see the words I write
Don't you know I write my life...

He didn't give me much when I was growing up
He didn't have the money for fancy things...
