For all the civil rights for which the world has struggled and fought for 5,000 years
the right to learn is undoubtedly the most fundamental
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ay, don't look at me different cause the color of my skin

Is what you see on the outside, it's not within, it's a sin
To judge or hold a grudge against your kin and your friends
We just trying to live and make some ends
When does it end? They killing on CNN

We protesting, do it over again, and we can't win
I'm getting tired of it, finna bend around the corner with my friends
With weapons breaking them in, yeah
And anybody need help, take them in

You worry about it, you try to come save an end
You ain't gonna do it, you protecting and serving, you gotta prove it
Hurry up, skip, skip, let's get it, come on, move it
Straight up, cause the clock still ticking

The cops still killing, and a lot of real ones feeling
Gotta kill it, or we gonna be tripping in any minute
But I don't care, you can tell them that we did it, yeah
We must provide and protect the life of yours, of mine, the black future

We must provide and protect the life of yours, of mine, the black future
I paint the sky blue, but still a black boy
Comfy in the skin that I'm in, you think we black, boy
Breaking stereotypes through sound bites

I forgot the crime pipes, that's black like brown types
Chocolate boy and proud, my spirit is not destroyed
My kind you cannot avoid
We still here, and beautiful, like the woman who adopted me

An ebony queen who dreams properly
Blackest, gladdest night on that midnight train
Durag over the dome, sound waves in the brain
Mind of Huey with the swagger of Riley

Came from the boondocks, raised off of the tribe
In Ice Leagues in Venice, the soulless within us
I ain't talking Sunday dinner, melanated on the surface and the center
Some view us as sinners, but we winners, no pretenders

The original vendors of black splendor, remember
We must provide and protect the life of yours, of mine, the black future
We must provide and protect the life of yours, of mine, the black future
Hold fast to dreams, for if they die

Life ain't nothing but a broken winged bird
And I want to fly past the racist and frown
When they see brown faces
Smile at them, cause hate can't drive out hatred

Love is the weapon that I choose to wield
We been fighting juvenile, everyday I hear another gruesome
Tell about a black death, for infringing on their privileges
Stay limited, or I soar like Mae Jemison

Black like licorice, unapologetically, genetically
I can't hold back, or let it be
Black like the fists on my afro pick
Is why my nap so thick, why my cap don't fit

Or why when I walk by, cats activate their car locks
Blackness, acceptance to the school of hard knocks
Cap and gown in the back of the crowd
Hear me rapping it loud, that I'm black and I'm proud

We must provide and protect the life of yours, of mine, the black future
We must provide and protect the life of yours, of mine, the black future
