Messiah

I was blessed with this melanated skin
Regal-ness lies deep within
The glory of the Lord coming out
And that's the kinda drip I'm talkin' 'bout
Ancestors prayed for this day
Better days where we look like change
I can tell the MESSIAH's on his way
I can tell that REDEMPTION's taking place

There's a people that's seeking your face
Grandma told us that we need to be saved
She was singing 'we shall overcome' but she didn't know
That you would come back wearing our face- 'cause you're the messiah

Back on them slave ships, they wasn't praying for nice whips
They had a promise of Kingdom that they knew was coming and they never lost it
They knew that this brown skin symbolizes glory and resilience
We absorb the light as it shines, that in itself is brilliance

Shine with the light you're so brilliant, Yah's calling all of his children
