letra de i'm black - griot b

give me five on the black hand side
on the black hand side
give me five on the black. hand. side
yeah that’s the new dap, so tell the news that
we’re more than just thugs, athletes, and hood rats
we’re the most innovative, underrated
complicated culture in the whole wide world
ourstory proves that!
we weren’t just slaves we were more than that
when europeans were in caves
we were more than that
bruh, we taught them how to bathe
even more than baths
look at all the stuff we gave, the moor’s are back!
i’m talking about those black kings
who ruled the first place where hola meant h-llo
word to oth-llo!
moor with the oo in the center
if you’re ever feeling lost, just remember
you is a winner!!

you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!

i’m black! and i’m proud of that
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!
i’m black!

i’m the rose that grew out the concrete and so are you
together we blossomed into a bouquet
our aura and aroma noticed in any room
full of lilies, you can smell the rose perfumed (1)
with shae b-tter, coconut oil, and black soap
our melanin poppin!
since the day we sprouted from that soil of that continent
where you find gold oil, diamonds
rubies redder than robin
ivory whiter than t–th
no wonder we flossing. i find it ironic
the concrete that was holding us back was never black
‘cus black don’t crack
no black don’t crack. no, black is like coal
under pressure it evolves into diamonds that glow
shining bright like hope
our story is amazing, the greatest never told
what culture you know
overcame the same fate?
black ain’t bad, baby black is great!
and

you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!

i’m black! and i’m proud of that
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!
i’m black

look at all the stuff we’ve been through
jet magazine we had a bunch of issues
missed opportunities we’ve had a couple miscues
still we’ve made it. we’ve paid it when the rents due
even through oppression!
we started as king, forced into slaves
transitioned to leaders, inventors
and rulers of state (2)
we moved and we shaped
the fabric of the country that swooped us away
don’t ever think you weak that we were just slaves
i’m a griot with a bachelors and a masters
i went to college and learned
why we had to call them m-ssas
they wouldn’t let us read our knowledge
that would be disastrous
‘cus when you free your mind
you wanna break out them shackles
see they just wanna move your body
i’m tryna move your mind
they just wanna move your body
i’m just tryna move your mind
they just wanna loose it up
i’m tryna stiffen spines
make you stand up and raise your fist with some pride!

you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!

i’m black! and i’m proud of that
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!

you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
you black! be proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!

i’m black! and i’m proud of that
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
i’m black! and i’m proud of that!
proud and black!
proud and black!
i’m black
