Black Lyrics

(Chorus : L E K A N I)
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black everything. black
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black everything. black

(Verse 1 : L E K A N I)
Black we often take it for granted
Not to mention the heartache that
We went through It's panicking task
To lift up our glasses, appreciate the stats
And the glory that the good Lord has provided
But somehow we remain fighting
It don't really make sense, I'm blessed
To have Two parents a father and then a mother
At night man I do hover in thanks of all
That I have and for that I will remain grateful
In these streets nobody safe so
I get on my knees, pray the Lord will keep me safe
And also the enemies, man I don't have no Animosity, look at how they be classing we
Gotta keep on moving, keep improving
Don't let doubt to see you in your darkest days
That way you will sink inside a maze
That's how the devil gonna catch you
Then surpass you
Still have a silver lining
Despite of all the reclining
We rising like the morning sun
While still having a lot of fun
Still got a lot to overcome, get to that later
Right now we focusing on somethin'
Brush off the haters I'm back as if I never left
I was stuck inside a shelf and I couldn't escape
My skin my logo, adagio my catalogue
To have these constant monologues
A blessing and a curse
Addressing all the hurt
Addressing all the ways
That I was told that I would never be enough
For the love of my dark skin huh

Black
(Chorus : L E K A N I)
Black
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black everything. black
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black everything. black

(Verse 2 : Jazz The Man)
In my skin is the power, Let the people devour
Let everything that takes up life
Get incredible showers
Wash the dirt to the pave, Put the sun out today
Take the kids out the grave, We gon' conquer the Phase, yeah
Aim for the bonnet, Aim for the front man
Aim for the problem, Aim what I saw next
Make 'em a sonnet
Pray for the whole clan, Pay and I'm on it
Go black kid go black kid go
Go black kid go black kid go
Call number nine
You can tell 'em we fine
You don't wanna be them
You don't wanna tell lies no
How many niggas a piece now
How many niggas are rich now
How many niggas are good now
How many niggas are hood now
Tough ain't never made me
Love has always made me
Black people been made these
Disadvantaged, like you
Tell 'em all, that I'm in
We can win, make it in
Take an L, make a sin
Wash away, getting rinsed
All clean, holy Spirit
On me, not blue
Not red, not green
Not white, I'm
(Chorus : L E K A N I)
Black
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black everything, black
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black love, black power, black everything
Black everything, black
