To a Black Boy
I'd like to give you happiness and dawn
I'd like to fill each day with joy as can be played
But I'm wise enough to know it can't be done
I'd like to give to you a life that's built on hope and trust
When love can stamp out cruelty and crime
I'd give you wealth and fame and free your walk of shame
But first, I'd give you freedom
Give you freedom in your time
I'd like to fill each day with joy as can be played
But I'm wise enough to know it can't be done
I'd like to give to you a life that's built on hope and trust
When love can stamp out cruelty and crime
I'd give you wealth and fame and free your walk of shame
But first, I'd give you freedom
Give you freedom in your time
