Black Is Beautiful (Single)

Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Whoa, whoa, whoa, uh-uh

Cah wen yuh black is a big threat

Never see nothin' like this yet

Such a pretty brown skin, wen yuh see my melanin

Yuh better show some respect

They can contain me now

So, they wanna come change me now, oh

This a mental slavery, minimal bravery

Mi nuh see di fix yet

So, no, no, no, I won't lower my standards

So, watch mi fight for what's mine, who I am, I am proud of, whoa-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

You won't be taking what's mine, I don't play by my culture, whoa

Out of many one people, we're all the same

Same color and blood flow through we vein

The strongest survive the human race

Only love will last along the way

Tell your children black is beautiful

To be alive is a whole lot of privilege

Education is the key to rule the world

You don't need to be white to be a pretty girl

Tell your children black is beautiful

And we naah guh beg for nuh privilege

Knowledge is the ruler of the world

You don't need to be white to be a pretty girl

Cah wen yuh black is a big threat

Never see nothin' like this yet

Such a pretty brown skin, wen yuh see my melanin

Yuh better show some respect

They can contain me now
