Black Deaf in America

What do you know about black deaf people or their history?
Oh, I see a lot of blank faces right now, hmm
Let me bring you up to speed

Sit your butt down
Listen good, where's the camera?
This is my folks, my tribe, holla, holla
Pay attention y'all 'cause this never ain't gonna stop
Get yourself woke 'cause we risin' to the top

(Hey!) You ain't ready yo
(Hey!) You never thought about it
(Hey!) Make it rain names
(Hey!) Be about it, 'bout it
(Hey!) We in beast mode
(Hey!) We don't stop
The quote of the day
