Great Blacks

Coffee shop
When I met Gillian, our sister
They asked me to join em'
I said, "Why not"
Time for me to take my destiny in my hands
Then one big adventure...

I'ma be fine, divinely designed
My heart do the beating but the blood ain't mine
My sense of time's intertwined deep with the great blacks
So standing in my corner ain't no way you could fake that
No way you could shake that
No way you could take that
I reckon that you paced back
Or learned to embrace that

I'ma be fine, divinely designed
My heart do the beating but the blood ain't mine
My sense of time's intertwined deep with the great blacks
So standing in my corner ain't no way you could fake that
No way you could shake that
No way you could take that
I reckon that you paced back
Or learned to embrace that

Gradually to drastically, change been deep
I used to roam wild on the one way street
My ethereal son just picked up my tambourine
And put it on my head and he called me a queen
My direction has shifted
From being ignant and gifted, suicidal and explicit
To being humbly committed, and preferably submissive to the source of all existence

I value my life more than ever
'Cause everyday I live is here to get it all together
Again to my true friends that help me stay splendid
If your faith in me had ended so would I, stay fly

I'ma be fine, divinely designed
My heart do the beating but the blood ain't mine
My sense of time's intertwined deep with the great blacks
So standing in my corner ain't no way you could fake that
No way you could shake that
No way you could take that (no way)
I reckon that you paced back
Or learned to embrace that

I'ma be fine, divinely designed (I'ma be fine)
My heart do the beating but the blood ain't mine
My sense of time's intertwined deep with the great blacks
So standing in my corner ain't no way you could fake that
No way you could shake that
No way that you could take that
I reckon you paced back
Or learned to embrace that

Props infinite to poets, passed the week
Four months old excavating brother's number one for thoughts of loving
Guidance third eye realignment
I know what it means to be dead out the body
The truth is here on earth now, and we create it
The great ancestor forces us to resurrect us
Colon of the heart shows the deeds to be done
And the sun's here to guide us

Pattern of the soul can't be recreated with artificial means
Or the bribing of the bias, investors striving for the highest
Should try the breathing exercises

I'ma be fine, divinely designed
My heart do the beating but the blood ain't mine
My sense of time's intertwined deep with the great blacks
So standing in my corner ain't no way you could fake that
No way you could shake that
No way you could take that
I reckon that you paced back
Or learned to embrace that

I'ma be fine, divinely designed
My heart do the beating but the blood ain't mine
My sense of time's intertwined deep with the great blacks
So standing in my corner ain't no way you could fake that
No way you could shake that
No way that you could take that
I reckon you paced back
Or learned to embrace that

If you have curly black hair
And sort of a, kinda wild and have bangles and beads on (yeah?)
