Black & Proud
Lyrics
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm feelin so good, my melanin skin
Shine bright as the sun, look where I came from
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm feelin so good, my melanin skin
Shine bright as the sun, look where I came from
Black with an attitude, cuz I know I'm free
And I'm black with education I gotta degree
And the past had black man treated like a trash can
Nowadays people try to copy with a bad taaaan
How ironic now we famous and iconic
To be black is to be cool, crazy everybody want it
Y'all be Cappin like a bonnet Lyin quick as sega sonic claimin Your a quarter black
You as funny as a Comic
Strip down to ya bare bones n we all alike
And the difference in the melanin irrelevant alright?
But I gotta keep it honest black is beautiful to me
We defeated every obstacle we excellent in deed
We know yeshua was brown and his hair was like mine
If that line make ya frown then ya gotta fix your mind
And we know about our slavery but homie press rewind
Black history began at the very start uh time uh
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm feelin so good, my melanin skin
Shine bright as the sun, look where I came from
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm feelin so good, my melanin skin
Shine bright as the sun, look where I came from
Uh
Skin richer than roasted coffee beans
Im the sum of all of my momma momma dreams
Cuz we stand tall when they can't stand us
This world start to feel outlandish
Cuz we were queens and kings way before the dream
We made a mark like killer bees way before the green
We are the Culture
So all those trends are just a reflex
So please respect the way we architect yo style
This melanin is a deep flex
So give me back all the credit you try to reject
And watch as the sun on my skin reflects
And this flow is like water, so this track it might drown
Aint no slackin my style they get made me when I'm loud
I just throw a fist up
Like Im black and Im black and Im black and Im
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm feelin so good, my melanin skin
Shine bright as the sun, look where I came from
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm Black and Im Proud
I'm feelin so good, my melanin skin
Shine bright as the sun, look where I came from
