[Two times, rap, male]
Does it really matter if I am short?
Does it really matter if I am thin?
Does it really matter if I am black?
I know I can do it… yes, yeah, better than you!!

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know…………………..

[Female]
I know that I am short,
But my dreams…… [High pitch, pause] ain’t any shorter,
I can put the ball into the basket,
I know I can do it….yes, yeah, better than you!!! [Emphasize]

But there you boss over me,
But there you bully over me,
You run with the ball away from me, you scream that I am a scum,
And there goes my dreams……. [High pitch] shattered.

I know that I am thin,
But my goals in life…….[High pitch, pause] ain’t any thinner,
I can kick the football, high into the air, into the goal,
I know I can do it….yes, yeah, better than you!!! [Emphasize]

But there you boss over me,
But there you bully over me,
You say go and check your foot, before you play with the ball,
And there goes my life goals……. [High pitch] shattered.

I know that I am black,
But my beauty……… [High pitch, pause] ain’t any blacker,
I know that I can live, strive and model for my beauty,
I know I can do it….yes, yeah, better than you!!! [Emphasize]

But there you boss over me,
But there you bully over me,
You say, I am ugly, you reprimand me for participating modeling,
And there goes my beauty ………… [High pitch] shattered.

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I know, I know, I know, I know, I know……………………… [Low pitch, female]

[Rap, male ]

Why don you give me a chance??
Why don you give me an opportunity??
To prove myself worthy, yes, yeah, I can do it, [Emphasize]
I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, yes, yeah.

Does it really matter if I am short?
Does it really matter if I am thin?
Does it really matter if I am black?
I know I can do it… yes, yeah, better than you!! [Emphasize]

Listen……..

I maybe, I maybe…….
Be short, thin and ugly
That doesn’t mean, that doesn’t really mean,
I am stone hearted, I have feelings,

Don you dare make me cry,
Don you dare make me angry,
Don you dare make me sad
Just give me a chance, listen……..

Does it really matter if I am short?
Does it really matter if I am thin?
Does it really matter if I am black?
I know I can do it… yes, yeah, better than you!! [Emphasize]
