I Am Somebody

Hey people, we got a little something

That we wanna tell you all, so listen

Understand, "Yo God made one no better than the other

Every girl becomes a woman, every boy a man"While you're livin' in your mansion driving big cars

There's another on the street cold sleepin' on the ground

So when you walk by, "Yo, don't act cold-blooded

'Cause it just ain't fair to kick a man when he's down"'Cause, he is somebody

Like I am somebody

You are somebody

Like I am someoneWhether you're here or you're gone

Right or you're wrong, you were meant

To be somebody from the second you're born

Don't criticize and knock one anotherIt ain't really that hard to just be a brother

So be good speak up don't wait for it to happen

Life is passing you by and homeboy

You're cold knappin'Don't get hung up on what you're not

Be proud of what you are and whatever you got

'Cause it's a cold cruel world causing

Kids to cry, if you're hangin'Your head,cold kiss it goodbye

Stand up for your heritage, rejoice

In the fact whether you're red, white, tan

Yellow, brown or black'Cause he is somebody

Like I am somebody

He is somebody

Like I am someoneThere are fireman, bankers, messengers, preachers

Brokers, policeman, executives, teachers, journalists

Janitors, architects, doctors, restaurant workers

Nurses, chief rockersIf you feel you're somebody

Be proud and show it

'Cause everybody's somebody

(Uh)

And ya know itIt doesn't matter if you're black, white or Chinese

Livin' in the States or reside overseas

'Cause you and I are special, same as everyone else

And if you don't believe me you're only cheating yourself'Cause we all got a purpose in life to achieve

(That's a fact)

And here's another

That you better believeThat I am somebody

Like you are somebody

He is somebody

Like I am someoneYou got wealth, good health and you're stuck on yourself

Let me tell you that you're better than no body else

'Cause you got no self-esteem, so I'm richer

And when you leave this earth you can't take money wit' chaSo play your dumb game, call me out

My name but there's nothing

You can do that could make me feel shame

We're all created equal we live and we dieSo when you try to bring me down I keep my head up high

Don't judge a book by its cover 'cause it's never what it seems

Now I know what I'm sayin' and I feel

I gotta screamThat I am somebody

Like you are somebody

He is somebody

Like I am someoneSo be yourself, uh

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
