Black Man in a White World Songtext
von Michael Kiwanuka

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

I′m a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white

I'm in love but I′m still sad
I've found peace but I′m not glad
All my nights and all my days
I've been trying the wrong way

I'm a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world


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

I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world

I′ve been low and I've been high
I've been told all my life
I′ve got nothing here to pray
And I′ve got nothing left to say

I'm a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I′m a black man in a white world


I'm in love but I′m still sad
I've found peace but I'm not glad
All my nights and all my days
I′ve been trying the wrong way

I don′t mind who I am (I'm a black man in a white world)
(I′m a black man in a white world)
I don't mind who I am (I′m a black man in a white world)
(I'm a black man in a white world)
I′m not wrong, I'm not wrong (I'm a black man in a white world)
(I′m a black man in a white world)
Oh it′s alright, it's alright (I′m a black man in a white world)
Oh it's alright (I′m a black man in a white world)

Oh it's alright (I′m a black man in a white world)
(I'm a black man in a white world)
(I'm a black man in a white world)
(I′m a black man in a white world)
