Black Isn'T Our Name Its Beautiful

Being black is not just a figure of speech Its a noun, adj., & knowing when & when not to turn the other cheek Many pioneers has lived with the mis representation While some died fighting to end the civil frustrations Being black isn't as bad as it may look Our physical properties don't represent the makings of a crook Our natural elements are sustainability & resilience Our original nature made us uniquely Brilliant enough to handle our own responsibilities Our culture is design to shine bright so that everyone can see The Afro American culture sets the tone for a concrete society And need no help to raise our family just equality Even with methods that was used to torment us "We shall overcome" was a phrase that helped boost us "By any means necessary" we struggled through the turmoil Once we began to re "know thyself" the bigots of the world started to boil Then had to recognize our true uniting potentials They psychologically uses entertainment to convince us And install hate inside our mental Through dis associating our past & segregating our class Degenerating our creative intentions Re imagining our mind with criminal inscriptions So Trust All we got is us Our ingredients posses spiritual reasons to teach They figure since we was enslaved & freed Afro Americans wouldn't know how to reach We paved the way to preach So to prove their unintelligent They dictated our intellectual & spiritual nature by the color of our butts Pardon my speech
