Right Now
It's time we come together
It's long overdue
Together, we can accomplish all
But divided we fall
You see, a large group is hard to sever
Compared to a few
We're longing for better days
Well, it's up to us to pave the way
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Right now, right now, right now
We have to stop the violence
We have to conquer our silence
Curb the toxicities
That plague our communities
If we join hands we can take a stand
And find our promised land
We're longing for better days
Well let's go and pave the way
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Right now, right now, right now
I'm Black and I'm proud
Say it loud
We must break the chains of mental slavery
Only we can free our minds
Envy, hate, jealousy
We must defy
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Right now, right now, right now
It's long overdue
Together, we can accomplish all
But divided we fall
You see, a large group is hard to sever
Compared to a few
We're longing for better days
Well, it's up to us to pave the way
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Right now, right now, right now
We have to stop the violence
We have to conquer our silence
Curb the toxicities
That plague our communities
If we join hands we can take a stand
And find our promised land
We're longing for better days
Well let's go and pave the way
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Right now, right now, right now
I'm Black and I'm proud
Say it loud
We must break the chains of mental slavery
Only we can free our minds
Envy, hate, jealousy
We must defy
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Black pride, black power, black freedom
That's what we need right now
Black love, black honor, black unity
That's what we need right now
Right now, right now, right now
