Be Black Video (MV)

You boy Zu
Keeping it True


The rose that grew from concrete
Heart full of love
But love is so obsolete
Rest In Peace Floyd

They killed him
Right on the concrete
Cops never cared
They'll kill us
Right In a heartbeat

Foot on his neck
Till he couldn't breathe
Screaming out for moms
So you know he weak
Saw it for myself
Man I couldn't sleep
If you black
Plus from the ghetto
You gotta watch police
Cuff you and you gone
Plant them drugs on you
Reaching for your wallet
Put them slugs in you
Why they envy us
'Cause we so regal
From creation
We the first and richest people
But they can't break us
So they contaminate the food
And never gave us acres
As they promised
Why you treat us like garbage
Turn around
And try to tell me that
Slavery's abolished
Can't understand that

Be Black
Sunday To Monday
I'm gonna Be Black
Monday to Tuesday
I'm gonna Be Black
Tuesday to Wednesday
I'm gonna Be Black
No matter if we under attack
Be Black
Wednesday to Thursday
I'm gonna Be Black
Thursday to Friday
I'm gonna Be Black
Friday to Sat'day
I'm gonna Be Black
No matter if we under attack
Be Black

Build your penitentiary
We Build your schools
Kick us to the curb
Ride us like a mule
Degrading us for centuries
What to do?
Killing us so many years
Still we should play it cool?
Nah
Now it's time to retaliate
Buy the block back
Rehabilitate
Love your skin tone
Just know you great
Get your money up
Invest it large real estate

It's easier said than done
Let's build a brighter future
For our daughters
And our sons
I know you feel the pressure
Wanna pull a loaded gun
But if you know your history
Then the battle already won
Radiant like the sun
We the chosen ones
They made profits
Ate loafs
We got crumbs
Ain't no stopping until it's done
Black excellence
Our time is now
Take a bow

Be Black
Sunday To Monday
I'm gonna Be Black
Monday to Tuesday
I'm gonna Be Black
Tuesday to Wednesday
I'm gonna Be Black
No matter if we under attack
Be Black
Wednesday to Thursday
I'm gonna Be Black
Thursday to Friday
I'm gonna Be Black
Friday to Sat'day
I'm gonna Be Black
No matter if we under attack
Be Black

I'm gonna Be Black

I'm gonna Be Black

I'm gonna Be Black
No matter if we under attack
Be Black
