Black is black, black is deep
All tamed but no shame can be seen
Melanin pigmented thanks to my ancestors for this
Forcefully all been taken away from me
Still struggling for the little cos I can't be playing victim
Black is colour, The sun is me

This is a poem, not some sad song you can sing
While being whited down I can tell they so afraid of me
Maybe cos the blackened me or the blasting me
I don't know so don't ask me this
This is not a racist me but my little way of letting into my reality

Kings & Queens, that's all we claim
The system is still being run them
Our kids is still being raised them
Media,Schools and billboards having them programmed
Still we never feeling ashamed, oh damn!

Body is here the soul is here
Body is gone the soul is here
Everything happening not so real here
Maya and Medea so used here
You can't dig this with no clue yeah

I do my best till the body go to rest
Down to the next
I am a sun of man I burn in the light
Light of the night I burn in delight.
