Corneille - A Man of This World lyrics

I was born black and free I was born in the cold Cold was home to me Until I was told I was really from the South So I traveled closer to the sun But you see Flesh burning beat Got me crossing the sea Back to the cold again So here I am Here I am I'm a stranger Anywhere I run to Yes I am A stranger And I just can't seem to Find a race I could claim The roots to my name But who I am Is a man of this world This is my second shot Winter's smiling at me I'm taking this shot To be all I can be So the next place I stop Will be the land of the free A place where a million of colors and dreams dwell Sounds like a place to me, where someone might understand Just who I am, who I am I'm a stranger Anywhere I run to Yes I am A stranger And I just can't seem to Find a race I could claim The roots to my name But who I am Is a man of this world Now there's this fuss about color And everybody needs to belong But take a minute to consider my perspective You see, black kicked me out once And white took me in But white looked at me once And nearly spat at my skin I'm so confused, I'm so confused About who I should hate I figure I'll just love them all I'm a stranger Anywhere I run to Yes I am A stranger And I just can't seem to Find a race I could claim The roots to my name But who I am Is a man of this world I'm a stranger Anywhere I run to Yes I am A stranger And I just can't seem to Find a race I could claim The roots to my name But who I am Is a man of this world I'm a stranger Anywhere I run to Yes I am A stranger And I just can't seem to Find a race I could claim The roots to my name But who I am Is a man of this world
