Black (feat. Bishop Dwight Amey Sr)
Ethiopia and Egypt were her strength
I know Ethiopia's black
I know Egypt is black
I know uh Cush is black and then it says Libya
Well Libya is black too
Man, if I could have a conversation with this white guy (black)
I would ask him explain (black)
About all these black countries (black)
How in the second chapter (black)
Of Genesis we got three rivers (black)
And all of them are surrounded (black) by black people (black)
And they're right in the beginning of the Bible
Ahh
Black, Black
Ahh
Black, Black
Under the sun, Africa
Marching to the beat of our own drum
We got the soul stamina
That's why they jealous, they all want some
Healing power, deep in the blood of our veins
Mystic flower, surrounded by the lion's mane
It ain't a mystery, yeah, yeah
They put us in slavery, yeah, yeah
To keep the discovery, yeah, yeah
Of our true identity yeah
Melanin is so, so deep in us
God's spirit is runnin' all up in us
Go head be natural, we spiritual, black power showin' up
Fro'd up (black)
Fist up (black)
Sing hallelujah (black)
Thank ya (black)
This ain't a warnin' (black)
We're celebratin (black
Jesus (black)
Black (black)
Ahh
Black, Black
Ahh
Black, Black
Uh, flip it, yeah
Sat down and had conversation with God
Gave me information for all you Bobs
Y'all owe us compensation, reparations and that's just the half of it
Every one of our ancestors from Sheba to Musa
Knew that we were created for greatness hence the rulers
Before the red, white and blue yeah
Black diamond on the earring
Black on the shoestrings
All black, thick black everywhere
Face down only when I pray
Take your hoorays you weren't invited anyway
God is the almighty
We writin' new history
BLM no more deadly ends
This is it
Fro'd up (black)
Fist up (black)
Sing hallelujah (black)
Thank ya (black)
This ain't a warnin' (black)
We're celebratin (black)
Jesus (black)
Black (black)
Ahh
Black, Black
Ahh
Black, Black
Keep on marching
Keep on praying
That's what we gonna do
No more silence
Y'all so violent
But y'all blame it on us
We ain't done anything wrong
Brother man just went out for a jog
Baby girl was asleep in bed
And baby boy was just gettin' some licorice
Y'all never ask us questions
Y'all just shoot instead (pop, pop)
But for the white skinned
Even if, when they commited it (y'all know y'all did it)
Y'all just forget about it
I'm so tired of all y'all bullshit
But we here to stay
And y'all gon' learn today
Fro'd up (black)
Fist up (black)
Sing hallelujah (black)
Thank ya (black)
This ain't a warnin' (black)
We're celebratin (black)
Jesus (black)
Black (black)
I'm glad I heard that
I'm glad I heard that guy say that Lance
Because I missed that
I missed the second chapter
Where it talks about these three rivers
And every one of these, these lands are Black People
Fro'd up
Fist up
Sing hallelujah
Thank ya
This ain't a warnin'
We're celebratin'
