Traces of My Melanin (Video Mix)
It's not impossible
To share with you my song
It's not impossible for you
To right a wrong
It's not impossible for lives
To intertwine
It's only
A matter of time
Can you see the traces
Of my melanin
(Traces of my melanin)
You tried to wipe them out, but they survived
(Traces of my melanin)
I see the guilt in your eyes
(Traces of my melanin)
They will always stand the test of time
(Traces of my melanin)
This world is yours and mine
My home I had to leave behind
You tried to take my voice
I fought and fought with all my might
You left me with no choice
There was nowhere for me to run
My soul you tried to break
The damage cannot be undone
My freedom was at stake
If loving me is hard to do
That's something you must face
I have as much the right as you
To see the break of day
My joy will not be measured by
Your tyranny and hate
There's one thing you must realize
I wasn't made to break
The fact that I'm still here today
Will prove to you my strength
Why did you bring me all this way
If you won't make amends
The past will be the past
It doesn't matter what we say
May peace and love and hope at last
Wash all the pain away
Can you see the traces
Of my melanin
To share with you my song
It's not impossible for you
To right a wrong
It's not impossible for lives
To intertwine
It's only
A matter of time
Can you see the traces
Of my melanin
(Traces of my melanin)
You tried to wipe them out, but they survived
(Traces of my melanin)
I see the guilt in your eyes
(Traces of my melanin)
They will always stand the test of time
(Traces of my melanin)
This world is yours and mine
My home I had to leave behind
You tried to take my voice
I fought and fought with all my might
You left me with no choice
There was nowhere for me to run
My soul you tried to break
The damage cannot be undone
My freedom was at stake
If loving me is hard to do
That's something you must face
I have as much the right as you
To see the break of day
My joy will not be measured by
Your tyranny and hate
There's one thing you must realize
I wasn't made to break
The fact that I'm still here today
Will prove to you my strength
Why did you bring me all this way
If you won't make amends
The past will be the past
It doesn't matter what we say
May peace and love and hope at last
Wash all the pain away
Can you see the traces
Of my melanin
