black child - joe blow lyrics
[verse 1]
i swear these beats will have me pouring my soul out
the job of a man is taking care of the whole house
everyday i pray the kids don’t go down the wrong route
i understand a father’s value now that i’m grown now
so i’m tryna raise responsible black women
tell ’em bout their history and why being black’s privileged
teach ’em bout their life, same way that my dad did it
but i’ma guide ’em through in the way that my dad didn’t
i’m booking flights to wherever the girls ask
kobe showed the world it’s dope being a girl dad
show ’em to use a gun to protect they self
we talk intellectual property, invest in self
you know nahliyah rocking jewellery and they both be threats
i make the right decisions now, there’ll be no regrets
i had these kinda talks with god cause he knows me best
and he always get me through so i know we blessed
[chorus]
you know the black child is beautiful and precious
why is the black child used to being oppressed then?
they think the black child is usually aggressive
but the black child is usually in depression
you know the black child is powerful, intelligent
so why they treat the black child like they irrelevant?
obama showed the black child could be the president
sky’s the limit black child, you was heaven sent
[verse 2]
d*mn, a cop just k!lled another black man
and we saw it happen all up on the dash cam
my daughter called, wanna know what happened
why them cops shoot their guns if some kids didn’t have ’em
i kept it real and told her “baby they scared of us”
we lapped ’em and they started four hunnid years ahead of us
they see our confidence, confuse it with arrogance
plus the mind state the slave masters had, they inherited
but she’s a strong black beautiful queen
stay focused and motivated while pursuing your dreams
i’ll make sure to hold you down so you don’t want for a thing
set good examples for your sister cause she watch everything
the black child could be dealing with mental health
we been crying out for years to get some help
but they just let the cops k!ll us and that’s wild
growing up in society is hard for a black child
[chorus]
you know the black child is beautiful and precious
why is the black child used to being oppressed then?
they think the black child is usually aggressive
but the black child is usually in depression
you know the black child is powerful, intelligent
so why they treat the black child like they irrelevant?
obama showed the black child could be the president
sky’s the limit black child, you was heaven sent
