Black and Proud
You know I'm black
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killin each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
You know I'm black
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killin each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
Writing letters
Can't put my pen down
I know how it feels
When no one to depend on
Money low & the rent due
Neglect the devil
Listen to the master
That's inside you
I pray we win
Pray we never lose
A different feeling
When it's yo family
Mentioned on the news
Can't bring em back
If you wanted too
Killing for generations
Can we call a truce
You say you love the kids
Lets do it for the kids
They watchin yo example
Take yo time with em
Love yo face
& your black skin
Never be ashamed
Of your black skin
Used to be broke
Used to share clothes
But that ain't stop me
And nothing can't stop me
I Love my face & my black skin
If that ain't stop me
Then can't nothing stop me
You know I'm black
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killing each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
You know I'm black
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killing each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killin each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
You know I'm black
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killin each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
Writing letters
Can't put my pen down
I know how it feels
When no one to depend on
Money low & the rent due
Neglect the devil
Listen to the master
That's inside you
I pray we win
Pray we never lose
A different feeling
When it's yo family
Mentioned on the news
Can't bring em back
If you wanted too
Killing for generations
Can we call a truce
You say you love the kids
Lets do it for the kids
They watchin yo example
Take yo time with em
Love yo face
& your black skin
Never be ashamed
Of your black skin
Used to be broke
Used to share clothes
But that ain't stop me
And nothing can't stop me
I Love my face & my black skin
If that ain't stop me
Then can't nothing stop me
You know I'm black
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killing each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
You know I'm black
You know I'm proud of it
Wish we would stop
Killing each other
I'd be so proud of us
Dr Martin your dream came alive
I'm so inspired
I feel so alive
