We Are Darker Than Blu(e) |
| I’m talkin' to you |
| (Who are darker then blue) |
| I’m talkin' to you |
| (blue) |
| I’m talkin' to you |
| I’m talkin' bout |
| It took people like Huey to move me |
| My life is like a movie real no films feel me? |
| The real me is black, like my African family tree |
| Blacker then the Black Panther party’s army |
| On me armed to the teeth with the beast all |
| Ready to catch heat from a G spark leaves |
| Lift up outer space black face picture us that deep |
| Black is the bottom of the black sea |
| Black is the reason why I am free |
| I am me a human being being more then all that I can be |
| Multiply more times most high majesty |
| Magic me John’s son as black as can be |
| High yellow Acapello afro actually |
| Nappy tree, lifted to the black above me |
| Buzz freeze for my ni**as, trust me |
| This is for my ni**as from the poorest to the richest that can be |
| Interlude |
| What if Malcolm X wasn’t dead? |
| And John F Kennedy wasn’t shot in the head? |
| And MLK was still living to this day |
| Do you think we would be living this way? |
| I think that John Lennon and Nat Turner would’ve packed burners |
| Peace for peace I keep a piece to keep peace |
| Six feet deep people rest in the piece they kept |
| Judas sold out, Jesus Wept |
| We breathe the breath of life through the wort times |
| Made it through the hurt for the first time |
| Ever since birth cryin', seen the Earth dyin' |
| Heard about the worst crimes |
| Dark nights personify when Black people unite |
| Under moonlight truths be told |
| If the blackness glowed it wouldn’t show another soul |
| So we share and we care for other folks |
| Truth be told |
| We used to cover up the whole globe |
| I’m talkin' bout' |
| Interlude |
| They tried to tell me Jesus Christ wasn’t Black |
| When Egyptian artifacts shows that the Persian army was Black |
| That means Jesus had to be |
| Blacker then the Egyptians then so he was blacker than me |
| Kind of like Nat Turner had to be |
| Imagine if we didn’t have photography a couple centuries |
| And they painted Kanye West a Caucasian |
| The African-American parties would be raging |
| What if they said the Beatles were Asian? |
| Half man, half amazing |
| I’m on a narrow path pacing |
| A Black man from Afghan blazing |
| A burning bush |
| Learning 'bout the kingdom of Kush |
| Push your wig back |
| And how crack made another Black crack |
| How they got us all tagged in a prison stat |
| Knowing damn well more than half ain’t even living that |
| I’m Black and I’m proud |
| Ever since I was a child I knew that |
| Because James Brown proved that back then |
| Black man, I’m light-skinned but |
