[Verse]
I'm not accepted as white
I'm not accepted as black
Then, who am I?
I am the human race
I am the universe
The sun is my mother and the moon is my father
And all the stars, my sisters and brothers
And this planet is my resting place
Now, I have no time to waste on black white brothers
Or, white black brothers, or white white sisters
Or, black white sisters pointing their fingers
Crying: "You ain't. You ain't. You ain't"
Because, I am
You, and him and all of them brothers and sisters
Wasting time, signifying and clarifying a color
I'm the human race
Hold my hand and understand yourself
Transcend this unnatural concern
Because we're losing the battle for our tomorrows
