Who's the face in the mirror that I see
Sometimes confused by the double standards of society
And maybe I'm wrong about the way I feel
But then will somebody tell me what is really real?
Now I respect myself
I respect you, too, but in the end it's got to be
Do unto me as I do to you
Now I try to tell you it's time
Separate our wants from our desire
Separate the truth from the lie
To live like people so inspired.
Peaceful world just out to see,
Basic respect, humanity,
And it one time seemed to be
We can live together peacefully
If we have truth we can survive
And for that our forefathers have died
It should be immoral or a sin
If it is according to the skin I'm in
Skin I'm in
Tell me how many times, how many times can i
Adjust my attitude to reach and touch the sky (sky)
Basic love is the creed by which I live
But then sometimes I wonder just how much a man can give
Gross injustices surround me from the highest levels of power
And you say these are the people I depend on for my survival
Is it for real or am I seeing shadows in the dark
I'll let you tell me, can you tell me brother
Tell me now
Peaceful world just out to see,
Basic respect humanity
I'm just trying to be realistic without becoming pessimistic
If we have hope we can survive
A damn good reason to stay alive
Is it immoral or a sin
It seems to be according to the skin I'm in
Skin I'm in
Peaceful world just out to see,
Basic respect humanity
I'm just trying to be for real in a world with less appeal
I'm so frustrated and flustered at what has been reduced to justice.
It is immoral or a sin
If it is according to the skin I'm in
