Race & Equality Songtext
von Eric Bibb

When you hear the lies of bigots
Instead of takin′ it personally
Discover how their minds got twisted
By the lies of history

Our ancestors whisper guidance
So don't hesitate to heed them
They′ll help you find your way
On the windin' road to freedom

Is what I tell my youth
When they come to me
Askin' about race and equality (mm)


Humanity might seem divided
By skin color and religion
I believe the truth is we′re united
In God′s eyes, there's no division

Is what I tell my youth
When they come to me
Askin′ about race and equality

Beautiful as God made you
Don't fix what needs no fixin′
Your hair, nose and lips and hue
Claim their own perfection

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder
Yet every culture has its own ideal
True beauty doesn't fade as you grow older
You′re beautiful, if that's how you feel

Is what I tell my youth
When they come to me
Askin' about race and equality (mm)
