about

Syl Johnson - "Is It Because I'm Black"

lyrics

THE DARK BROWN SHADES OF MY SKIN ONLY ADD COLOR 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.

CHORUS:
IS IT BECAUSE I'M BLACK..SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT CAN I DO..
SOMETHING IS HOLDING ME BACK, IS IT BECAUSE I'M BLACK.
