I Am A Man!
I am a man,
a black man I am!
And what you think of me,
I don't giva damn!
I am solid as a rock,
strong as an oak tree.
I have a history of pride
deep rooted in me.
I shall not be moved!
You can't bring me down!
I refuse to allow you
to turn my smile into a frown.
My eyes are wide opened!
No longer am I blind!
I have taken the chains
off my mind!
Like an uncaged bird,
I am free!
For I love life,
and life loves me!
Through the worst of storms,
Still, I stand!
This is why
I am a man!
