Hey people,we got a little something That we want to tell you all,so listen Undestand,"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 someone Whether 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 another It 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 someone There are fireman,bankers,messengers,preachers Brokers,policeman,executives,teachers,journalists Janitors,architects,doctors,restaurant workers Nurses,chief rockers If you feel you're somebody Be proud and show it!'Cause everybody's Somebody,(Ugh) and ya know it It 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 believe That I am somebody Like you are somebody He is somebody Like I am someone You 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 witcha So 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 Die,so 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 scream That I am somebody Like you are somebody He is somebody Like I am someone So be yourself, HUH!!!
