Corneille

A man of this world

Corneille
I was born black and free, I was born in the cold
You see, cold was home to me until I was told
I was really from the South, so I travelled closer to the sun
But you see, flesh burning heat 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, just 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
So 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'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
Is a man of this world
