Dark child, dark child
Don't nobody else want you
Just know that you are special to me 
When nobody else want you
Dark child, dark child
Don't nobody else want you
Just know that you are special to me 
When nobody else want you

We will never be defeated
Can't feel what defeat is
Like we paraplegic 
King since a fetus 
Power flows through streams of breast milk that feed us 
But the same queens that breed us
Are the ones they taught to beat up
Quest to be the leaders 
But oppressed by the elitists 
1619 we were told we were the weakest
They whipped stripes on our body like we was Jesus 
Whipped stripes on our body like some adidas 
Stripes on our body like we were zebras 
Put stripes on our body like we Les Tigres 
Animals is how they treat us 
But no matter how much they struck us, they could never beat us
Black excellence gives that pristine feeling
But it hurts God don't look like me on that Sistine ceiling 
And that Mona Lisa
For sure a classic
But I know a Lisa
I should call her magic
Not just 'cuz she's a black girl that secures the bag quick
But when times were tragic
Should've died, she surpassed it
See these bars are to ignite my people
Once regal, but today I prophesy the sequel
And don't forget your melanin is sun kissed 
So the (Soda) people that see error in you missed
Everything that God designed for you to be
Don't let others opinions write your eulogy 

Dark child, dark child
Don't nobody else want you
Just know that you are special to me 
When nobody else want you
Dark child, dark child
Don't nobody else want you
Just know that you are special to me 
When nobody else want you
Dark child, dark child
Don't nobody else want you
Just know that you are special to me 
When nobody else want you
Dark child, dark child
Don't nobody else want you
Just know that you are special to me 
When nobody else want you

It will be alright
I am on your side 
It will be alright
I am on your side 
It will be alright
I am on your side 
It will be alright
I am on your side 
It will be alright
I am on your side 
It will be alright
I am on your side 
It will be alright
I am on your side
