lyrics

You wanted to bring me down to your level
And you tried to paint me black
But what color is your hue now?
Since you tainted everything you had

I'm not the same as you
And you are nothing like me
Call me whatever you like
Cause we are the same on the inside

Do you feel the strings of guilt?
Pulling at your conscience
You can't take back the words you said
Because they're already swirling inside my head

Does the color of my skin offend you?
The shape of my body tend to
Make you place me in a clear cage?

I've you'd look beneath the surface you'd see
Everything that's true about me
Are all the things that you don't see within yourself

But how different could we really be when
Chasing such fantastic dreams
I'd rather be the realest me
Than the blackest hue that could ever be
