Black

Black is beautiful
Black is courageous
Black is the color that we call a sensation
Black is more than word
Black needs to be heard
Black needs a new light
Black is causing me strife
Black is the cost of my life
Even when I do right

I look to my left then I look to my right
I don't see too much light
The world has gone crazy overnight
And is till find myself taking flight
I still find myself instagraming
Hash Tagging Twitter ranting
But rarely do I see something interesting that'll hold my faith in this planet
Funny how it goes
We're addicted to the shows
But we never get the chance to read the bible
Even if you don't believe
You should want to see
A new state of equality
For you and me
I can't perceive
Blood on the leaves
I can not leave
Ive lost my sleeves
So my heart is cold
Black is beautiful and black is bold
But the judgement of black might kill my soul

Black is beautiful
Black is courageous
Black is the color that we call a sensation
Black is more than word
Black needs to be heard
Black needs a new light
Black needs to loose strife
Black is the cost my life
Even when I do right

Black
that's what they called me
Same kid that never attended the party
Never intended to be such a smarty
Never knew that he would think so sharply
Built an image and built a new name
Aiming for success could care less about the fame
Didn't want to play in societies game
Knew that he'd be the only one to blame
Even if he never wore a gold chain
Even if he never got the perfect aim
Even if society made him insane
All he ever wanted to do was make a change
But he was black
And that made the difference
No matter the amount of success
He still had the black appearance
Black is beautiful
Black is courageous
Black is the color that we call a sensation
Black is more than word
Black needs to be heard
Black needs a new light
Black needs to loose strife
Black is the cost my life
Even when I do right
