Switch on the TV, what do I see?
Yet another guy that looks just like me
Another picture, another story
Another tale, another piece

Some guy who got shot
Young guy left to rot
Lady got robbed
Some guys who got stopped

Open 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 a*saulted on the bus

There'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 tough

It's just me, just me
Yet again all the talks about me
Just me, just me
No matter what I do, you can't set your mind free

Hear a lie enough times
And you believe it for sure
Obstacles in your way, make you wanna quit
And turn your back on everything

Shine a light up
Brothers and sisters going get brighter
Even though the media try to demonize us
Need to wiser

With eyes wide shut, we ain't gon' get nowhere
So, man, listen up, raise your cup
It ain't half empty, it's half full, life is a test
It faces many obstacles

Con la frente siempre en alto hasta el crepúsculo
Nunca esperando un milagrito mayúsculo
Soy ciego a los lamentos de aquellos que se
Aferran a ser victimas

Blanco, negro
Creyente no creyente
La belleza de este mundo
Es que somos differentes

It's just me, just me
Yet again all the talks about me
Just me, just me
No matter what I do, you can't set your mind free

Another day in Parliament, politicians speak
So call guardians of the land, protectors of the weak
Immigration this, integration that
Minorities dissed again, same ol' chat

Open 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 a*saulted on the bus

There'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 tough

It's just me, just me
Yet again all the talks about me
Just me, just me
No matter what I do, you can't set your mind free
