Sometimes I close my eyes  Sometimes I open my eyes  But the view remains the same  Surrounding me is prejudice  And Melvin... that's my name    Grave disorder  White mans greed  Oppressing millions  To plant the seeds  Seeds were planted  But in the wrong way  Melvin, that's my name  And I'am black is that OK?    Brave Melvin  From the Southern point    And now we're in the nineties  And do things have changed  Changes are so many  But prejudice stays the same  The seeds are planted  But in the wrong way  Melvin is my name  I'm black is that OK?    Brave Melvin  From the southern point    Heading for the future  The pace of life increased  For making lots of money  The business man agrees  Modern day enslavement  And we all sing along  Selling souls and culture  Again we are wrong
