America's Worst Nightmare (Part 2)

A black man unafraid Stand tall Walk tall Yeah know stroller needed to support me I stand for something so you just can't tell me anything Knowledge passed down from my heritage That gave me power Made me forever hungry Thirst for more knowledge Success can't even quench my thirst Maybe want go down in black history But want to be remebered Not Malcom or Martin But they both helped paved the way They set a standard for me to follow Day to Year So I plan to win in this game called life My map drawn out precisely Nothing can get my way Nothing can stop me I'm your biggest fear I'm a black man's dream But I'm American's Worst Nightmare
