Bolden Boke Boy |
| If I move slowly through this task |
| I will earn some rest |
| If I move quickly and surely |
| I will do my best |
| I’m sad to see things change |
| For you who were such good friends |
| One should walk the way one needs |
| And when the way is crooked one bends |
| Out that evening it makes me sick to think |
| You put your hands up as if to say |
| I won’t be part of what you do |
| Life ain’t war least not today |
| If I move slowly through this task |
| I will earn some rest |
| If I move quickly and surely |
| I will do my best |
| This is how it would be |
| When we would meet often to see |
| How easy things could be made |
| And still go down unanxiously |
| Once you were chased down the street by blacks |
| Screaming about how cool it is |
| To be black and you ducked away |
| It will never be as cool as this |
| If I move slowly through this task |
| I will earn some rest |
| If I move quickly and surely |
| I will do my best |
| Then it was needed to become rough |
| In order not to be inhuman |
| Uncanny unable and unwilling |
| To think about not having children |
