I'm Black (Explicit)

I'm black

Whether I'm poor or rich or rich or poor

Dog, it's all the same shit

I'm black

Even though my skin's kinda light

That mean my ancestors was raped by somebody white

I'm black

So I like to sing, dance and crack jokes

Eat good food and be around black folk

I'm black

Sort of like the oldies on Sundays

Drink all night and still go to work Monday

I'm black

So I like my kids lookin' real nice

'Cause I been poor and I know what it feel like

I'm black

And I'ma say it loud like James Brown

People be proud 'cause we all up in the game now

I'm black

And I'ma hold my right fist real high

Might see my man and we might get real high

I'm black

And I know it and I ain't afraid to show it

I'm black

And I'm a genius and a motherfuckin' poet

You know it

So proud to be just who I am

So proud to say that I'm me

So proud to be just who I am

So proud to be so free

I'm black

So proud to say that I made it

I'm black

The one who been strugglin' in the hatred

I'm black

And I'm not afraid to say it

I'm black

I'm black 'cause I know I'm sinkin', yeah

I'm black

So I got a heart full of bravery

Do it for my peoples that went through slavery

I'm black

So you know I'm young into sports

Ninety percent chance I get hung in the court

I'm black

Don't you be scared of me, mister

'Cause you don't really seem to be scared of my sister

I'm black

And I can ride first class too or buy an exotic car

And like merk past you

I'm black

And I don't need to tan in the winter

Mind strong and powerful, not a cypher can't enter

I'm black

And I don't need jewelry to shine

Look at my skin color, it's like the jewelry is blind

I'm black

They focus on the negative attention

Do something positive and never get mentioned

I'm black

Listen, it's a fact, original man, I wouldn't change it

If I could, and that's that

So proud to be just who I am

So proud to say that I'm me, yeah

So proud to be just who I am

So proud to be so free

I'm black

So proud to say that I'm me

I'm black

The one who been strugglin' in the hatred

I'm black

And I'm not afraid to say it

I'm black

(I'm black, I'm black)

(Oh, yeah, yeah)

I'm black

Even with a caramel complexion

Look in the mirror, see Malcolm and Martin reflection

I'm black

Just like the Panthers, lookin' for a end to this prejudice

Shit is like a cancer

I'm black

Look in my eyes, the wool can't get pulled over

Look at my cars, I stay gettin' pulled over

I'm black

Meanin' Public Enemies Number 1, government lookin' in the hood

Sendin' in the guns

I'm black

I grew up off The Good Times show

Drink liquor, smoke weed and let the good times roll

I'm black

I live for my wife and my seeds and my mom with a bond

Only God could exceed

I'm black

I got to show my homeboys love

First thing we've learned in the hood was homeboy love

I'm black

And I'm that if I ain't nothing else

I'm black

I'm beautiful, I love myself

Yeah (Love myself)

So proud to be just who I am

So proud to say that I'm me

So proud to be just who I am

So proud to be so free

I'm black

So proud to say that I'm me

I'm black

The one who been strugglin' in the hatred

I'm black

And I'm not afraid to say it

I'm black

I'm black

I'm black

Yeah
