Am I a foreigner to you?
My eyes a different shade of blue?
My skin a different type of hue?
Or am I human too?
Am I a woman or a man?
Is my head buried in the sand?
Am I a tourist on this land?
Or am I human too?
Do you see me here?
Could you lend an ear?
Can you feel my fear?
Oh, please remember dear
I'm human too
You think I'm wearing a disguise
My words have hidden spells and lies
Wish I could open up your eyes
That I'm just human too
This isn't an attack on you
A knife is in my back
I've fallen down
I'm losing track
I need your help
And if I'm being honest
I've been crying and exhausted
And I'm frankly just astonished
That all you can think of is your
Self
Although a little overdue
I'm bringing color to your view
These words have never been more true
That I am human too
You're not a foreigner to me
Your eyes are closed to some degree
Please open up your heart to see
That I am human too
