Tell Them I Said That

A man who is white is the same as a man who is black

The same features but character is something they lack

Same blood, same heart, same pulse...All the same

But mental slavery keeps us all enslaved

Could we tell the difference if both men bleed?

Could they both catch the same disease?

Do it separate us because they wear a suit n tie?

All I see is slacks with a certain dye

If each race die they're buried the same

Minds of the youth are twisted because our colors aren't the same

Open that mind's eye to break the mental slavery

See mind of a white man is the same mind god gave to me

Though our colors are different our hearts are the same

Its racism that causes our heartaches and pain

Demolish the foundation of slavery and bring equality back

People may say "no" but tell them I said that
