Doesn't Matter
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I know you've heard it all before,
but the message don't get much better.
Always competing with someone else, beating up on yourself.
Deep inside you've always had this dream,
crazy as it sometimes seems.
Always thinking up some excuse, you just need some juice.
It Doesn't matter, if your black or white.
Doesn't matter if your wrong or right.
All that matters, don't give up the fight.
Doesn't matter if your rich or poor.
All that matter's is you know the score.
Doesn't matter, you can open any door.
Never listen but you wanna teach.
Do you practice what you always preach.
Take a deeper look inside yourself,
before you look at someone else.
Please don't rush, take your time.
Challenges are hard to climb.
Before you think of hanging up your boots,
just sip on some juice.
It Doesn't matter, if your black or white.
Doesn't matter if your wrong or right.
All that matters, don't give up the fight.
Doesn't matter if your rich or poor.
All that matter's is you know the score.
Doesn't matter, you can open any door.
Cos in life we only get one chance,
we gotta live it up, we gotta do it right.
If you wanna dance the last dance,
then you gotta be prepared to fight.
There's no point in having dreams.
If your gonna spend your life asleep.
Really there is no excuse. You just need some juice.
It Doesn't matter, if your black or white.
Doesn't matter if your wrong or right.
All that matters, don't give up the fight.
Doesn't matter if your rich or poor.
All that matter's is you know the score.
Doesn't matter, you can open any door.
It doesn't matter, oh no.
Doesn't matter, oh no.
Doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter, oh no.
It Doesn't matter, if your black or white.
Doesn't matter if your wrong or right.
All that matters, don't give up the fight.
Doesn't matter if your rich or poor.
All that matter's is you know the score.
Doesn't matter, you can open any door
