Some Of Us Are Brave
If the sky were to fall, I'd be the first to call
Some of us, some of us are brave
Who's gonna feel my pain? Who's gonna say my name?
Ain't no choice but to be brave
Peace and love to the ones who give praise
Take a bow as the sun hits the face
See me now, golden hour
And to those who fear leads them to hate
What a pity to be locked in a place
You see me now, I'll show you how
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
Peace and love to the ones who give praise
Take a bow as the light hits the face
See me now, I'm loud and proud
And to those who fear leads them to hate
What a pity to be locked in that place
I know you see me though
'Cause the breeze don't blow 'cause you want it
And the sun gon' shine regardless
I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
All we want is to be ourselves, shine our light with no problems
We don't want problems
I do believe that the power in me frightens you
That's your problem, that's your problem
I say the darker the berry, the sweeter the fruit
The kinkier the hair, the deeper the roots
Bow down when the queendom comes
Take note when we speak our tongues
Darker the berry, the sweeter the fruit
Give her her crown when she walks in the room
We are the first ones, we are light of the sun
All we want is to be ourselves, shine our light with no problems
We don't want problems
I do believe that the power in me frightens you
That's your problem, that's your problem
Black like the earth to the world we gave birth
Hair to the sky so much cool in our stride
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
Some of us, some of us are brave
Who's gonna feel my pain? Who's gonna say my name?
Ain't no choice but to be brave
Peace and love to the ones who give praise
Take a bow as the sun hits the face
See me now, golden hour
And to those who fear leads them to hate
What a pity to be locked in a place
You see me now, I'll show you how
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
Peace and love to the ones who give praise
Take a bow as the light hits the face
See me now, I'm loud and proud
And to those who fear leads them to hate
What a pity to be locked in that place
I know you see me though
'Cause the breeze don't blow 'cause you want it
And the sun gon' shine regardless
I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
All we want is to be ourselves, shine our light with no problems
We don't want problems
I do believe that the power in me frightens you
That's your problem, that's your problem
I say the darker the berry, the sweeter the fruit
The kinkier the hair, the deeper the roots
Bow down when the queendom comes
Take note when we speak our tongues
Darker the berry, the sweeter the fruit
Give her her crown when she walks in the room
We are the first ones, we are light of the sun
All we want is to be ourselves, shine our light with no problems
We don't want problems
I do believe that the power in me frightens you
That's your problem, that's your problem
Black like the earth to the world we gave birth
Hair to the sky so much cool in our stride
I'll show you how
I'll show you how
