Oh Lord, why Lord lyrics

I've searched the open sky,

to find a reason why,

Oh Lord, why Lord.

The color of my skin,

is said to be an awful sin,

Oh Lord, why Lord. Oh-oh.

No I cannot understand,

no I'll never never understand,

Oh Lord, why Lord.

I've got to live and live, and give,

much more than I can give,

Oh Lord, why-y-y-y-y-y Lord.

In this world, you made so sacred,

I only find problems and hatred,

(Oh Lord, why Lord).

I just can't seem to find any place,

my every move is so unsafe,

(Oh Lord, why Lo-o-ord).

Why this long and bitter strife,

must go on for equal rights,

(Oh Lord)

Why can't there be some harmony,

(Why lord)

Instead of constant agony.

I just can't help but cry,

for the tears won't stay inside,

(Oh Lord, why Lo-o-ord).

I feel the weight, of their everlasting hate,

yet I still live with hope and faith,

(Oh Lord, why Lord).

I wear the chains,

but nothing ever seems to change,

(Oh Lord, why Lord).

I ask no special kindness,

I ask not for a crown.

I only ask, for some justice Lord,

to restore what's right from wrong.

So now you've learned my sadness,

in a story and a song.

Oh Lord, why Lord.
