Black boy Joy
black boy Joy is not just noise
it is a voice that should be heard from word to word
like thunder in the clouds or a lion roaring in the jungle they should hear the rumble not your grumble
speak loud and proud cuz you're black will never be silenced or unbalanced
your joy is created equal just like any other people peacefully we have March for years
and shed it many tears endured whips and chains through all of the pain
we manage the gain knowledge of self worth when we insured our Legacy and Scholars
they try to hold his back but now we got a fist full of dollars
they tried to destroy our forefathers now look at us where doctors lawyers judges and even made it to the White House
showing that anything is possible if you believe that you can achieve greatness in this world
black boy Joy is not just noise
