Black Is Beautiful

Tell me what you see when you're looking at me
A threat or a king
Do I make you feel vulnerable or powerful
Or fearful or all three
That's a normal reaction
For the kind of skin you see
Unfortunately
The world has conditioned you to kill me
Or weaponize me
So, let me rectify your mind
Change your heart and I'm sure you'll see
I'm full of brilliance and dopeness
And good loving

Black is beautiful
We don't have to do the most the beauty's natural
Our culture is contagious it's just who we are
Playing Spades and killing fades yea we're setting the bar
Black is beautiful
Others hate us cause they ain't us
That's the usual
Big drip and well equipped
Yeah, we dangerous
Damn my black is beautiful

Brown skin girl
You're beautiful and made from something special
Fly higher than the clouds they still can't catch you
Life's a balance beam but you finesse her
Cause no one's better
You got the stars on your side
You got that look in your eyes
And now you got me wondering
If we met in my dreams, baby
And to my little black boy
I promise that I always will protect you
I promise that I never will neglect you
I promise that you'll always be essential
To me and your mama boy
So, when life brings us drama boy
We'll have no problems boy
So, let me instill in you
That your black is beautiful

Black is beautiful
We don't have to do the most the beauty's natural
Our culture is contagious it's just who we are
Playing Spades and killing fades yea we're setting the bar
Black is beautiful
Others hate us cause they ain't us
That's the usual
Big drip and well equipped
Yeah, we dangerous

Out of the night that covers me
I'm black as the pit my nigga
I'm back at your wig to split it
I'm back at the crib lets get it
Black is so beautiful
I need a city full
They want to box us like we in a cubicle
Them people they must be delusional
Think plot, plot scheme
Why is black still lesser than green
Could that be why
The Harriet twenty never dropped on the streets
I think it's cause when you kill the wolf
You empower the sheep
You know what they used to say
Bout the earth and the meak
Ain't an op that can stand in our way
Being black got the hand in your face
All you need is to look at your skin
Know that God is the force that's within
Know that I got your back when you need it
The song a hit, press the button
Repeat it
Bear the fruit from the garden
I seeded
All the signs in the stars
If you read it
Okay now let me taste your brown skin
You give me life
I'm drinking juices from your fountain
No amount can
Match your worth up on this earth
No use in Counting
Black is just outstanding you feel me

Black is beautiful
We don't have to do the most the beauty's natural
Our culture is contagious it's just who we are
Playing Spades and killing fades yea we're setting the bar
Black is beautiful
Others hate us cause they ain't us
That's the usual
Big drip and well equipped
Yeah, we dangerous
Damn my black is beautiful
Black is beautiful
We don't have to do the most the beauty's natural
Our culture is contagious it's just who we are
Playing Spades and killing fades yea we're setting the bar
Black is beautiful
Others hate us cause they ain't us
That's the usual
Big drip and well equipped
Yeah, we dangerous
Damn my black is beautiful
