You know I`m proud to be black y`all
and that`s a fact y`all
And if you try to take what`s mine
I take it back y`all - it`s like that
Licki-licki-licki-licki-licki-licki-licki-licki-
Listen party people here`s a serious song
It`s right not wrong, I should say right on
I gotta tell you somethin that you all should know
It`s not a mystery it`s history and here`s how it go
Now Hariett Tubman, was born a slave
She was a tiny black woman, but she was brave
She was livin to be givin there`s a lot that she gave
There`s not a slave, in this day and age
I`m proud to be
[D.M.C.]
Black, god damn, I`m tired my man
Don`t worry bout what color I am
Because I`ll show you how ill, this man can act
It could never be fiction cause it is all fact
And if you get in my way, I will not turn back
I`m proud of my name, my name is Darryl Mack
I`m black and I`m proud, and I`ll say it out loud
I`ll share my story with the whole crowd, AUUUGHH!
[Run-D.M.C.]
You know I`m proud to be black y`all

DJ Run, and I run these things
You can hear it loud and clear like when the schoolbell rings
Like Martin Luther King, I will do my thing
I`ll say it in a rap cause I do not sing
[D.M.C.]
D.M.C., the man, that`s causin the beef
I got a message for the world so listen up it`s brief
Like Malcolm X said I won`t turn the right cheek
Got the strength to go the length, if you wanna start beef
Start beef!
[Run-D.M.C.]
You know I`m proud to be black y`all
and real brave y`all
And motherfucker I could never be a slave y`all
So take that!!

We`re gonna tell ya somethin put your mind in a swirl
God bless the next baby that comes in this world
The world`s full of hate discrimination and sin
People judgin other people by the color of skin
I`ll attack this matter, in my own way
Man, I ain`t no slave, I ain`t bailin no hay
Written a deposition, in any condition
Don`t get in my way cause I`m full of ambition
I`m proud to be black (and I ain`t takin no crap)
I`m fresh out the pack (and I`m proud to be black)
SO TAKE THAT!!
[Run-D.M.C.]
There was a man - an inventor - who invented so well
He invented a fortune - for a man named Bell
George Washington Carver, made the peanut great
Showed any man with a mind, could create
You read about Malcolm X - in the history text
Jesse Owens broke records, Ali broke necks
What`s wrong with ya man? How can you be so dumb?
LIKE DR. KING SAID, WE SHALL OVERCOME!
