People look at me like I'm an alien All because of the color of my skin Whether you're Black, White, Asian, or Rican All that matters is what lies within When did race become such a problem Character should be the only model But I refuse to conform to the column May not be at the top but we're not at the bottom Our people getting placed in a bubble Judging by color, our children getting troubled But we need to see through the dividend To make a way for the not-so-distant end I hold my stance, standing flatfooted With steadfast will and you know I'm not moving When society tries to label us as lesser We will rise above the pressure and show that we are better Cuz I'm thankful and grateful Blessed with this melanin Said I'm proud and I'm loud Standing up for who I am And nothing can stop me from the joy that comes with it Regardless of the skin I'm in, I'm still a human And we can detest all the things that test us But we must come together for a cause greater than us Cuz I'm thankful and grateful Blessed with this melanin Said I'm proud and I'm loud Standing up for who I am We can't fight hate with hate because there's no room for it If you're fighting for a cause then you gotta stand for it Tryna place blame, unity will deplore it Cuz we have to move forward with togetherness and restore it Thankful for my color Thankful for my brother Thankful for my sister Come on and sing it with us Thankful for my color Thankful for my brother Thankful for my sister Come on and sing it with us Yeah, oh oh Yeah, oh oh Yeah, oh oh Yeah, oh oh, yeah Cuz I'm thankful and grateful Blessed with this melanin Said I'm proud and I'm loud Standing up for who I am, oh
