I've been low, I've been high
I've been told all my life
I've got nothing left to pray
I've got nothing left to say
All the black men in a white world
All the black men in a white world
All the black men in a white world
All the black men in a white
I'm in love (love) but I'm still sad
I've found peace but I'm not glad
All my nights (nights) and all my days
I've been trying the wrong way (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
I feel like I've been here before
I feel that knocking on my door
I feel like I've been here before
I feel that knocking on my door
And I've lost everything I had
And I'm not angry and I'm not mad (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
I'm a black man in a white world (woah)
