Just Me

Switch on the TV, what do I see?
Yet another guy that looks just like me
Another picture, another story
Another tale, another pieceSome guy who got shot
Young guy left to rot
Lady got robbed
Some guys who got stoppedOpen the paper in search of news and enlightenment
Met by some story bout hate and incitement
Half the stories in the paper bout us
Another woman got assaulted on the busTheres a piece about young immigrants and thugs
Another article bout brother selling drugs
Turn the page, hurt my eyes enough
Yo, this BS everyday is toughIts just me, just me
Yet again all the talks about me
Just me, just me
No matter what I do, you cant set your mind freeHear a lie enough times
And you believe it for sure
Obstacles in your way, make you wanna quit
And turn your back on everythingShine a light up
Brothers and sisters going get brighter
Even though the media try to demonize us
Need to wiserWith eyes wide shut, we aint gon get nowhere
So, man, listen up, raise your cup
It aint half empty, its half full, life is a test
It faces many obstaclesCon la frente siempre en alto hasta el crepsculo
Nunca esperando un milagrito maysculo
Soy ciego a los lamentos de aquellos que se
Aferran a ser victimasBlanco, negro
Creyente no creyente
La belleza de este mundo
Es que somos differentesIts just me, just me
Yet again all the talks about me
Just me, just me
No matter what I do, you cant set your mind freeAnother day in Parliament, politicians speak
So call guardians of the land, protectors of the weak
Immigration this, integration that
Minorities dissed again, same ol chatOpen the paper in search of news and enlightenment
Met by some story 'bout hate and incitement
Half the stories in the paper 'bout us
Another woman got assaulted on the busThere's a piece about young immigrants and thugs
Another article bout brother selling drugs
Turn the page, hurt my eyes enough
Yo, this BS everyday is toughIts just me, just me
Yet again all the talks about me
Just me, just me
No matter what I do, you cant set your mind free
