Kiwanuka, Michael - Black Man In A White World Lyrics






I've been low, I've been high
I've been told all my lies
I've got nothing left to pray
I've got nothing left to say

I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white...

I'm in love but I'm still sad
I've found peace but I'm not glad
All my nights and all my days
I've been trying the wrong way

I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world

I feel like I've been here before
I feel that knocking on my door
I feel like I've been here before
I feel that knocking on my door
And I've lost everything I had
And I'm not angry and I'm not mad

I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world

I've been low and I've been high
I've been told all my lies
I've got nothing here to pray
And I've got nothing left to say

I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world
I'm a black man in a white world

I'm in love but I'm still sad
I've found peace but I'm not glad
All my nights and all my days
I've been trying the wrong way

I'm a black man in a white world
(I don't mind who I am)
I'm a black man in a white world
(I don't mind who you are)
I'm a black man in a white world
(I'm not wrong, I'm not wrong)
I'm a black man in a white world
(Oh it's alright, it's alright)
I'm a black man in a white world
(Oh it's alright)

  14. N.... X....

    I found this song because of what I searched (how I feel): “I hate living in white man’s world.”

  15. T.... C....

    2019
    Who wrote the entire song?

  16. G.... M....

    I am a black man in Africa, still enduring White man's opression.

    G.... M....

    And that's where the leaders need to sit up and take responsibility for their people and their welfare. Do the leaders have vision and unity beyond their own families? It's been some decades now

  17. n.... ....

    Why is London born Kiwanuka so unhappy?
    London is now a Black Capital, with Black knife crime too ...
    If he's so unhappy, why shoot a video in America, instead of parent's Uganda?

  18. C.... M....

    Say it as it is brother I feel you in my forth coming book THE BLACK NATION LIES POLITICS AND RELIGION IN THE 21ST CENTURY I go deep on our existence as Melanites living in a white regressive society lost in a day dream of hypocrisy called democracy.

  29. F.... s....

    BOTHAM JEAN....

  30. G.... J....

    I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.❤🇸🇸

  31. R.... B....

    Unfortunately so many blacks are stuck on rap that they haven’t heard of this guy. Great song and video.

  32. G.... E....

    i luv this man's prose

  33. W.... ....

    All colors let's unite for freedom

  34. C.... W....

    Sing it my brother🗣️

  35. N.... A....

    Why does it sound so africa? I love it! it remembers me a kind of Fela Kuti nigerian music

  36. A.... ....

    Kinda of music that sticks in your head for a week... Here's another one : Raury - God’s Whisper.

  37. A.... B....

    Why do I look at the comments? You people have to ruin everything. I knew it. Except for two or three comments, the rest were stupid people who neither understand the meaning nor see the reality of the world. Not to mention the racist douchebags who say racism doesn't exist, diversity is a weakness or that this is discrimination against white people. Music is one of the few good things left in the world but morons have to ruin even that. Thank god the song is good enough to forget about your ignorant comments.

  38. b.... ....

    I'm an animal in an animal world.

  39. W.... W....

    Richie Havens reincarnate

  40. M.... D....

    Hay gente hispanohablante escuchando esta hermosa musica,¿cierto ?
    salgan de ahí muchachos v,:
    A mover el cuerpo.

  41. J.... T....

    Meanwhile, "Whites" only make up 11% of the entire world, and blacks are projected to be the MAJORITY in 40 years.

  42. d.... c....

    I feel this in my soul 🙌🏾

  43. O.... ....

    My privilege card has not come in the mail yet. 😒

  44. R.... A....

    I love this song. But I just feel every black person hates me just because I'm white. this is not equality, just saying

  45. D.... G....

    Esau the so called white men will be destroyed with hell fire and these last days

  46. B.... ....

    Meanwhile white people only make up 16% of the worlds population.

  47. e.... ....

    Seems black people are far better in a white world than in black Africa. Just saying, nice song.

    e.... ....

    Africa is the way it is, because the land has been rapped of it's resources & because of materialism. white men, black men & all other races of men are to blame for that. The world in general is the way it is , because of greed.

    e.... ....

    Not only false but a horrible mentality.

  48. S.... ....

    I feel like this is the opening line of my song (on iTunes) that I released on Malcolm X's birthday in 2015. 🤔 You're welcome.

  49. R.... C....

    "Black Man In A Zionist World commonly confused as a White World"

  50. C.... T....

    You rock, so glad I discovered your music.

  51. a.... ....

    Wow just mic drop to such talent

  52. L.... ....

    2019👌

  53. N.... T....

    LOL I've lived in China and India - he's so lucky to be living in the US. Sounds too much like a 'plantation song'. Most of the current, 21st century issues are self inflicted. One of the worst for this 'victim narrative' are people who favour 'Identity Politics' - Martin L King would be so sad.

    N.... T....

    The artist who made the song lives in the UK. Not the United States and it's not a victim mentality when it's the truth, also Botham Jean was not playing victim nor was he harming anyone and was killed in his home. Now that is a real victim

  54. M.... M....

    Good final clip!!!!!! Awesome!!!!

  55. L.... S....

    Fa pa loko alto tema

  56. N.... B....

    Great song great vid and I love the whole feel of his music!

  57. D.... L....

    Lovely song, lovely video!

  58. b.... n....

    Soy el único que vino por tve get down ??

  59. r.... r....

    This song is racist!!!

  60. G.... A....

    Não entendo nada, mas entendo tudo♡ Que instrumental, quee vozes belas!!

  61. c.... ....

    We all should know and remember that we are from same place EARTH

    c.... ....

    And i love all his music it make me feel :) and in todays world that is much

  62. M.... ....

    What if you sing im a white man ? Just sayin

  63. �.... �....

    2019? ❤️

  64. J.... c....

    I'm a black man in a white world because you are a Israelite that didn't keep God's commandments.

  77. M.... ....

    Blackish anyone ?

  78. X.... B....

    People that are black or trying to make white people look like they're the bad one but we're not the bad ones the black people are actually the bad ones we are all the bad ones

    X.... B....

    Oh well, it’s not like white people murdered, enslaved, and shipped black people to Europe and the Americas to work for them against their will...
