People who don't see color showing their true color
We're all hue man 
But what hue is you
I'm 50 Langston Hughes 
Darker than Hugh Jackman
But y'all got the nerve to mistreat me
Like I'm the mutant 
I'm Luke Cage with this melanination
It's amazing 
My Black is more of a Superpower 
Than China is 
Muscle, bone, and brain are warmed 
By a mahogany coat of solar panels
Who needs electric companies
When I'm generating this Black Power 
Dopeness per hour 
By the kilo watt
We get charged with death penalties for our innocent existence  
So we protest to legalize Blackness 

Hair is kinky but it's not a fetish 
Black woman says you'll catch these
Hands before you can ever touch this
No spared feelings, no cares given
There's no Karen their world 
There's Atatiana, Breonna, Aura Janisha, Tanisha
Say their names, say their names 
Y'all acting kind of shady 
For a people who don't see color 

The darker the melanin, the less intelligent 
They used to claim 
I'm dark like the neuromelanin in your brain
That protects you from Parkinson's Disease 
So all lives have Black thoughts
Paranoid when they hear those Black voices 
In their head 
Stealing their sleep and peace of mind
As reparations for stealing our language 
But couldn't steal our rhythm 
And wouldn't you be sad if we made the Blues Black again
Our walk, our talk, our sex is smooth as Jazz 
And even that has an African genotype  
The flesh of Rock 'n' Roll and Disco
Was Micheal Jackson's skin tone 
Until he Bleached it 

It all goes to show that Blackness is Soul
It doesn't die 
It reincarnates over many genres 
It transcends physicality
It's mentality + spirituality
Where you can speak proper English 
Think like a Negus, feel like a n**** 
But act like a god or goddess 

It is brilliant resilience 
Rich in spirit, impoverished living
Fatherless and still smarter 
Than 90% of the class 
It's surviving slavery, thriving like it didn't happen
But living like our ancestors never died 
They are reborn as Us today 
Not for vengeance but for healing 
It's laughing so hard you gotta run off and come back 
It's Kool-Aid smiles with gangsta grills
It's doo rags and head wraps 
It's kicks instead of shoes 
It's, I'm trying to be like you, but I'm also doing me
It's Kwanza and Juneteenth 
Wazzup with two zz's 
You speak when you enter my house 
But if I see you in the street
I greet you with a head nod from 20 feet away 

You good? means 7 different things 
And they're all understood 
Everything is written over our Black Face
So you can see what we're thinking 
It's never about what you say 
But how you say it 
It's Vodoun, Santeria, Ifa, the Orishas
It's ancestor worship 
Blackness is liberation 

Black boy joy and Black girl Magic
Killing linguistic semantics
Giving good meaning to bad words 
Blackness is the word 
And the word is with God 
So the God body is a Black body 
And mine was mirrored in God's imagination
Black since the Moors
Black since the Nubians 
Black since the Khemetians
Black since the Atlanteans
Black since the Semites 
Went from having a dream  
To staying woke 
Its one drop of this Blackness in your blood 
And you're one of us 
As long as you were raised by The Village
You think you're not racist 
Because you have biracial children
But so did the slave masters
