Это потому, что я черный?
1973. Ники Томас, Ямайка, рэгги в Шотландии.
My people...
The dark brown shades of my skin,
Only add colour to my tears
That splash against my hollow bones
That rocks my soul
Looking back over my false dreams that I once knew
Wondering why my dreams never came true
Somebody tell me... what can I do
Something is holding me back
(holding me back)
Is it because I'm black?
Yeahhh
In this world of no pity
I was raised in the ghetto of the city
Momma, she worked so hard
To earn every penny
Something is holding me back
Is it because I'm black?
(Is it because I'm black?)
Something is holding me back
Is it because I'm black?
*Interlude musical*
Tell me, because I'm a color
Something is holding me back
Like a child steeling his first piece of candy... and got caught
Wonder around life's corner somewhere I got lost
Something is holding me back
Is it because I'm black?
(I want to know, I want to know.
Yeahhh...)
Something is holding me back (people)
Is it because I'm black?
(Tell me... can't you see)
Somebody,... please tell me.
Is it because I'm black?
(Is it because of my color?)
