Proud To Be Black (feat. Regine)

I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, yeah
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black

I ain't saying that we're better than, I'm just proud of my melanin
I really cherish it and I'm very proud of my heritage
No history in school but there's knowledge that we inherited
Twenty twenty-four you could probably even be president
Black is beautiful, I can say that without no hesitance
They tried to steal our music cause all our music is relevant
Anybody that's prejudice probably just lack intelligence
Made it through hard times, we consider that black excellence
Black lives matter, had no issues expressing it
This is a testament and this written is evidence
I wanna' move to Africa and switch up my residence
Basically I ain't settling, I just wanna' just settle in
It'll make me feel better, something just like some medicine
I'm so proud to be black, I probably sound repetitive
I'm so proud to be black, I probably sound repetitive
Yeah, if they ask me then I'mma tell em' then

I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, yeah
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black

I ain't sayin' that we're better than, been in struggles they never been
I drink a lot of water and put in miles on the peloton
We gotta' be united, divided then we can never win
Support the black businesses, really start to invest in them
They put us through comparison through the eyes of a jealous man
They stay embellishing but we different down to our skeleton
You see the penmanship, my mind goin' just how propellers spin
And I was destined then, thas' a moment worth reminiscing in
Started from Queens, I was made to be royal
First ancient civilization built on African soil
Ain't even gotta' be related to be sister and brother
We spend a lot of wasted time just on resenting each other
Let's go against all the odds, start uplifting each other
Cause' the kind of love that we need can only get from each other
Can never relax, It's time we react
And I'm active, a black activist and proud to be black

I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, yeah
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black, I'm proud to be black
I'm proud to be black

Put your right fist in the air
You are the King
You are the Queen
There's so much power in who you are
Yeah, yeah
