Blue Eyed Black Boy Songtext
von Balkan Beat Box

I try to figure out but I don′t understand
What makes one man better than another man
I try to figure out if there's something I can do
To change the way you see me and I see you

The color of my skin, unlike the color of my eyes
Is getting me in trouble, costing me a hefty price
I try to stay away from all those sacred clans
I′ll try to stay in town, I'll try to make a stand

Heads down, make sure your head's down
Don′t get to this town, face down
Face down, make sure you stay down
Don′t stay in town, heads down


If you look into my eyes, you'll see the color blue
If I look at you, I′ll see a human who is living in this town
Like I live every day
Trying to survive, trying to find his way

If you're looking at my skin you′ll see the color black
We better look ahead then look back
We better make this town a better place to live in
'Cause what you going to get is what you giving

Heads down, make sure your head′s down
Don't get to this town, face down
Face down, make sure you stay down
Don't stay in town, heads down

Heads down, make sure your head′s down
Don′t get to this town, face down
Face down, make sure you stay down
Don't stay in town, heads down
