If you were born with a broken heart
If your whole world had been torn apart
Don’t tell me you wouldn’t get into fights on trains
Don’t tell me everything would still be the same
And if you’re whole word was now somebody else’s world
To walk these streets you’ve had to pay a price
If you were born with a broken heart
If everyday was coloured by your skin
If history just never let you in
Don’t tell me you’d have grown up comfortably
Don’t tell me you’d understand the word ‘me’
And if you’re whole world was now somebody else’s world
To walk these streets you’ve had to pay a price
If everyday was coloured by your skin
Someday, someday I’ll have my world
Then I’ll know who I am
Somday, someday, people won’t turn away
To satisfy the fear they feel inside
If you were born with a broken heart
