The dark brown shades of my skin,
only add colour to my tears,
That splash against my hollow bones,
and rocks my soul,
Looking back over my false dreams,
That i once knew,
Wondering why my dreams never came true,
Cuz something is holding you back,
Is it because im black?..
so tell me this,what am i to do?,
Because something is holding you back..
-Syl Johnson "is it because i'm black?"( 1968)
