Tekst piosenki
This is just a song to say That I'm proud for what they are And I hope my world can take me Half that far Way back in Mc Carthy's day My parents left the USA Young rebellious lovers They left behind a nation far too proud And powerful to say That love transcends all colors Some black men turned against my father Some white men turned against my mother Each race has their place they all would say And with a past so battle worn And a future begging to be born They found a life that's growing still today And glancing thru the years And living thru their fears I hope they can accept my goals A bit confused, a bit unclear And all the years behind me now Seem like a book I've read and yet somehow I still don't understand all the words All the black and all the white That rest in me that make me fight Remind me of all the knowledge left to learn Still Some black men turned against my father Some white men turned against my mother Each race has their place they all would say with a past so battle worn And a future begging to be born They found a life that's growing still today And glancing thru the years And living thru their fears I hope they can accept my goals A bit confused, a bit unclear This is just a song to say that I'm proud for what they are And I hope my world can take me half that far
