I was born black and free[00:00:22]

I was born in the cold[00:00:25]

Cold was home to me[00:00:27]

Until I was told[00:00:30]

I was really from the South[00:00:33]

So I travelled closer to the sun[00:00:36]

But you see[00:00:39]

Flesh burning beat[00:00:40]

Got me crossing the sea[00:00:42]

Back to the cold again[00:00:44]

So here I am[00:00:47]

Here I am[00:00:50]

I'm a stranger[00:00:51]

Anywhere I run to[00:00:53]

Yes I am[00:00:58]

A stranger[00:00:59]

And I just can't seem to[00:01:00]

Find a race I could claim[00:01:01]

The roots to my name[00:01:04]

But who I am[00:01:07]

Is a man of this world[00:01:08]

This is my second shot[00:01:24]

Winter's smiling at me[00:01:26]

I'm taking this shot[00:01:30]

To be all I can be[00:01:32]

So the next place I stop[00:01:35]

Will be the land of the free[00:01:36]

A place where a million of colors and dreams dwell[00:01:40]

Sounds like a place to me [00:01:44]

Where someone might understand[00:01:47]

Just who I am who I am[00:01:50]

I'm a stranger[00:01:53]

Anywhere I run to[00:01:55]

Yes I am[00:01:57]

A stranger[00:01:59]

And I just can't seem to[00:02:00]

Find a race I could claim[00:02:03]

The roots to my name[00:02:06]

But who I am[00:02:09]

Is a man of this world[00:02:10]

Now there's this fuss about color[00:02:13]

And everybody needs to belong[00:02:18]

But take a minute to consider my perspective[00:02:24]

You see black kicked me out once[00:02:28]

And white took me in[00:02:31]

But white looked at me once[00:02:34]

And nearly spat at my skin[00:02:36]

I'm so confused I'm so confused[00:02:39]

About who I should hate[00:02:44]

I figure I'll just love them all[00:02:46]

I'm a stranger[00:02:49]

Anywhere I run to[00:02:53]

Yes I am[00:02:56]

A stranger[00:02:58]

And I just can't seem to[00:02:59]

Find a race I could claim[00:03:01]

The roots to my name[00:03:05]

But who I am[00:03:07]

Is a man of this world[00:03:10]

I'm a stranger[00:03:12]

Anywhere I run to[00:03:13]

Yes I am[00:03:16]

A stranger[00:03:17]

And I just can't seem to[00:03:19]

Find a race I could claim[00:03:21]

The roots to my name[00:03:24]

But who I am[00:03:26]

Is a man of this world[00:03:28]

I'm a stranger[00:03:30]

Anywhere I run to[00:03:33]

Yes I am[00:03:35]

A stranger[00:03:37]

And I just can't seem to[00:03:38]

Find a race I could claim[00:03:41]

The roots to my name[00:03:44]

But who I am[00:03:46]

Is a man of this world[00:03:48]
