(I`m Black)
Whether I`m poor or rich, or rich or poor
Though its all the same shit
(I`m Black)
Even though my skins kind of light
That means my ancestors was raped by somebody white
(I`m Black)
So I like to sing dance and crack jokes
Eat good food and be around black folks
(I`m Black)
Sort of like the Holys on Sundays
Drink all night and still go to work monday
(I`m Black)
So I like the kids looking real nice
Cuz I`ve been poor and I know what it feels like
(I`m Black)
And I`ma say it loud like James Brown
People be proud cuz we all up in the game now
(I`m Black)
And I`ma hold my right fist real high
Might see my man and we might get real high
(I`m Black)
And I know it, and I aint afraid to show it
(I`m Black)
And I`m the genius in the motherfuckin Poet
You know it
(Ohh Ohhh)
Chorus (Floetry)
So proud to be just who I`am
So proud to say that I`m me...
So proud to be just who I`am
So proud to be so free
(I`m Black)
So proud to say that I made it
(I`m Black)
The one who struggled in the hatred
(I`m Black)
And I`m not afraid to say it
(I`m Black..Cuz I know I`m Sinking)
(I`m Black)
So I gotta heart full of bravery
Do for my peoplez that went through Slavery
(I`m Black)
So you know I`m young in the sports
Nintey percent chanced I get hunged in the Court
(I`m Black)
Don`t you be scared of me Mister
Cuz you don`t really seem to be scared of my sister
(I`m Black)
And I can ride first class too
Or buy an exotic car and like murk past you
(I`m Black)
And I don`t need a tan in the winter
Mind strong and powerful now a cypher can`t enter
(I`m Black)
And I don`t need jewelry to shine
Look in my skin color is like the jewelry is blind
(I`m Black)
They focus on the negative attention
Do something positive, and never get mentioned
(I`m Black)
Listen it`s a fact, original man
I wouldn`t change it if I could and thats that
Chorus(Floetry)
So proud to be just who I`am
So proud to say that I`m me...
So proud to be just who I`am
So proud to be so free
(I`m Black)
So proud to say that I made it
(I`m Black)
The one who struggled in the hatred
(I`m Black)
And I`m not afraid to say it
(I`m Black)
(I`m Black...I`m Black...Ohh...Yeah...Yeah)
(I`m Black)
Even with a caramel complextion
Look in the mirror see Malcolm and Martin reflection
(I`m Black)
Just like the PANTHERS, looking for an answer
It`s prejudice shit is like a cancer
(I`m Black)
Look in my eyes the wall can`t get pulled over
Look in my cars and stay gettin pulled over
(I`m Black)
Me the public enemies number one
Government looking in the hood sending in the gun
(I`m Black)
I grew up off the good time show
Drink liquor smoke weed and let the good times roll
(I`m Black)
I live for my wife and my seeds
And my mom with a bond only God can acceed
(I`m Black)
I got to show my homeboys love
First thing you learnt in the hood is homeboy love
(I`m Black)
And I`m mad if I ain`t nuthin else
(I`m Black)
I`m beautiful and I love myself (Say together)
YEAH! (Love myself...Ohh yeah)
Chorus(Floetry)
So proud to be just who I`am
So proud to say that I`m me...
So proud to be just who I`am
So proud to be so free
(I`m Black)
So proud to say that I made it
(I`m Black)
The one who struggled in the hatred
(I`m Black)
And I`m not afraid to say it
(I`m Black)
(I`m Black...I`m Black...Yeah)
