I'm Black, I'm melanated,
and I'm proud,
Sometimes I'm silent, sometimes I'm humble,
and sometimes I'm loud.
I have morals, I have character, I have values,
I have dignity, I have respect, I don't bring bad news.
My moods reflects the often changing times, that affects my mind,
but I never let it disrupt my shine,
Amerikkka makes the Dark- matter children bipolar, it's up to us to stand on top of the clouds.
And look down
On all of the hypocrisy that seems like only people with the brown skin can see
that no one that bears pale skin can relate to,
or offer me anything that can console me
in my people's time of need.
You see it's a package deal, I don't just care about me,
finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow is minor,
I'm into major business and that's enjoying the rewards of witnessing and watching my people go free, and living in peace.
No pimps, no hoes, no guns, no drugs, no prostitutes, no users, no abusers, y'all know what I'm trying to say, pretty much no losers.
We have to be sophisticated, not domesticated,
we have to love, and erase our self-hatred,
You're made in image that the slave masters have made you,
How foolish of you to wrap yourself up in the American flag, like that flag has ever saved you,
all that flag ever did was disgrace you.
Replace you,
erase you,
and misplace you.
Sold Mama to a family in Pennsylvania and daddy down south to the Jew in Louisiana, kept the young girl in Virginia, our records are all screwed up, when it comes to the negroes place in history, no one seems to remember.
Only the Amerikkkan flag knows the full truth, but it's an inanimate object so it can't speak,
definitely can't be the voice for the weak,
the oppressed get killed 7 days a week,
but Media won't let the world see, but when an athlete speaks out and challenges the Elite,
they vilify the righteous intent, and silence their speech.
Talking about we gave you freedom.
Freedom for who?!
You meant to say freedom for you.
It wasn't too long ago that blacks was shining and polishing your shoes,
while the Amerikkkan white men was sitting on the stools.
And laughing at who?!
God intended to make little gods, but we were be stolen away to be made into domestic n¡gg3rs,
by a people, who didn't care if your own mother was dead or if she was living.
Major bravery, to survive 310 years of chattel slavery,
followed by a 4 year civil war that was was fought to keep the slaves in place,
and to keep them in an animal's state so that the master can feel safe.
100 years of Jim Crow laws after the war and 50 years of So called Civil Rights,
461 years later And Blacks are still begging to be treated right!
Man this can't be life!
Only when we as a people unify, we'll experience drastic changes in our lives,
so I dedicated my life for this mission, I was born to engage in battle,
and put up a fight,
on behalf of our sleepless nights.
