Dear black boy I thought I would inform you That Webster defines black as dirty, spoiled Absent of light, very sad, gloomy, marked by the occurrence Of disaster, hostile, angry, discontent, grim, and distorted Young black boy tryna navigate Zillow in the classroom trying to find my place Since I was knee high I knew the caste system Since the sun kissed me they look at him different Jokes fallin down like you black as night Laughs felt like punches to the face I had to fight Six years old wishin I was white If I was Micheal Jackson color would they treat me right But I aint black I'm Davey They like you blacker than a African boy you crazy They thought it was a diss you can't diss the crown I wish I knew that then at least I know it now They try to say that my skin color was criminal Not to my face but on the tv subliminal We hate the tint of my skin so we hate our brothers I don't need to know the set to know we kill for colors dont kill for colors Dont kill for colors, them yo brothers dont kill for colors Look at my skin (Huh) Look at my skin Made by him Made by him (Him) Made in his image them is fact facts (Facts) We celebrate loud with a clap clap (Ahh) Tried to degrade it (Tried to degrade it) Told me to hate it (Told me hate it) Cannot degrade it Look it's amazing Look I won't trade it I'm black I'm black Made us hate our hoods then they bought that Made us fight our brothers we should've fought back Divide us and kept us off the same page Made me hate my brother so they worked him like a slave Colonizes our minds monetize the culture Generified what's mine demonized the cultural Cuz it's black and it's different And I'm black and Im gifted Tragic they did this But i'm free from this system ID gone but YAHWEH recovered mine Cause where I'm from look God ain't colorblind Yea the skin black but I shine My pigment was intention by his design Citizen of heaven African blood That middle eastern Savior shows the boy some love He sees my skin and he cares Told me I'm a heir Every tribe at his throne can't wait to get there Look at my skin (Huh) Look at my skin Made by him Made by him (Him) Made in his image them is fact facts (Facts) We celebrate loud with a clap clap (Ahh) Tried to degrade it (Tried to degrade it) Told me to hate it (Told me hate it) Cannot degrade it Look it's amazing Look I won't trade it I'm black I'm black My son, tell me what you want to know Black, black. Why does it hurt so? Bad Black is bad? Who told you that lie? To God, you're an heir to his kingdom Those who've been brought low, my God, he will lift high Where else can you go? Who else would you want to be? Made in his image, you mirror a holy king Do you want to know why God made you black As black as the earth's decor? Let me tell you son So that lie, you'll believe no more They say not to question for God is the God of all creation He birthed light out of darkness, my son, that is legit Only in this life is black black so dangerous Son,thank God for your gift of blackness
