Black
Black
of any human group having dark-colored skin, especially of African or Australian Aboriginal ancestry.
It's hard being black in a world full of light
Always being put on the back burn
People taking from your culture and calling it theirs
When you do it it's ghetto
When they do it it's urban
When you use slang you're uneducated
When they use slang they're cool
Nobody stands up for us not even our own
How can you not love a soldier on your side,
no matter how bad their aim is
Slavery is no more
The chains are broken, but
The judge has spoken
So the chains are put back on taking you to your cell
But they let the everyday cop walk free
Letting murders set free
Black
We fight for our rights
Black
The opposite of white
