A Man Like Me...

A man like me…the black man you see

Standing here in front of you…

In your eyes…but out of view

Always knew…

What it's like to be

A man…a black man like me


Can you tell me…

The black man you see

Standing here in front of you

Face to face…but out of view

Something new…about what it’s like

To be a man…a black man like me


Now look at me…stare deep into the mirror of my soul

And see yourself…

In my pain

In my degradation

In my crucifixion

In my resurrection…

Know me as I am

And receive salvation…

From a black man

Like me.
