BLACK
Catch me in all black everything
Black shoes and black sweater
A black mood
Black don't crack
But I'll crack ya damn skull
I'm that true
I'll smack fools
With back hand
I can't stand
A yes man
I remember back when I would sit in a dark room
Feeling like I'll prolly take
A couple more pills than prescribed
I was tired of having all of those tears flood my eyes
And black circles underneath
From the hours I cried
That black down in ya soul
Will creep up to ya mind
If you let it
Black ink on my skin
Is a reflection of lessons
I've learned
Every black word that I've written I meant it
Take it how you want but never take me for granted
Here for a good time not a long
Dark liquor hella strong
Anything to get me through the moment
I must admit it
I'm black and I'm proud of that
Don't you forget it
Catch me in all black everything
Cause black is the new black, you already knew that
I know it I know it
Yes I do
I smile cause I'm black and I got the right to
And I have rights too
Fist up fist up
That black pride too
Of course they hate
But hmm
Man what's new
You're powerful embrace what's inside you
Take back and reclaim all they denied you
My parents black
My skin's black
My kids black
See I don't wanna be nothin else but black
I've been through hell and my skin don't crack
I'm proud of who I am
Proud of where I've been
This ain't at the store baby
This is built in
Black shoes and black sweater
A black mood
Black don't crack
But I'll crack ya damn skull
I'm that true
I'll smack fools
With back hand
I can't stand
A yes man
I remember back when I would sit in a dark room
Feeling like I'll prolly take
A couple more pills than prescribed
I was tired of having all of those tears flood my eyes
And black circles underneath
From the hours I cried
That black down in ya soul
Will creep up to ya mind
If you let it
Black ink on my skin
Is a reflection of lessons
I've learned
Every black word that I've written I meant it
Take it how you want but never take me for granted
Here for a good time not a long
Dark liquor hella strong
Anything to get me through the moment
I must admit it
I'm black and I'm proud of that
Don't you forget it
Catch me in all black everything
Cause black is the new black, you already knew that
I know it I know it
Yes I do
I smile cause I'm black and I got the right to
And I have rights too
Fist up fist up
That black pride too
Of course they hate
But hmm
Man what's new
You're powerful embrace what's inside you
Take back and reclaim all they denied you
My parents black
My skin's black
My kids black
See I don't wanna be nothin else but black
I've been through hell and my skin don't crack
I'm proud of who I am
Proud of where I've been
This ain't at the store baby
This is built in
