VRY BLK |
| Black is like the magic, and magic’s like a spell |
| My brothers went to heaven, the police going to |
| … yeah, they’re going to, hello operator, emergency hotline |
| If I say that I can’t breathe, will I become a chalk line |
| Line up to see the movie, line up to see the act |
| The officers are scheming to cover up their |
| Cover up their… ask me no more questions, tell me no more lies |
| Your serving and protecting is stealing babies lives |
| I’m very black, black, black |
| Can’t send me back, back, back |
| You take my brother, brother, brother |
| I fight back, back, back, back |
| I’m very black, black, black |
| I made a pact, pact, pact |
| You take my brother, brother, brother |
| I fight back, back, back, back |
| Everything is everything, a mantra says the guillotine missionary commissioned |
| misery into angel wings |
| And all he wanna do is be still and cut bread |
| Never know the dead, how they whisper «Forgive me» |
| Everything is relative, politicize the evidence |
| I heard a politician reiterate all the messages |
| And all he wanna do is feed family, be famous |
| Never know the poor, how they scream out «Redeem me» |
| Everything is casualty, a song I heard, the bullets sing |
| I know a couple babies gon' see 'em fly tonight |
| He wish he wasn’t magic, all he wanna do is be a passage |
| In a book titled «America the Savage» |
| Symphony is symphony, when everything was meant to be |
| Piano man and drummer boy just invented a song for me |
| And all I wanna do is find love and be happy |
| And all I wanna do is find love |
| I’m very black, black, black |
| Can’t send me back, back, back |
| You take my brother, brother, brother |
| I fight back, back, back, back |
| I’m very black, black, black |
| I made a pact, pact, pact |
| You take my brother, brother, brother |
| I fight back, back, back, back |
| I’m very black, black, black |
| (Double, double this) |
| Can’t send me back, back, back |
| (Double, double that) |
| You take my brother, brother, brother |
| (The trouble trouble is) |
| I fight back, back, back, back |
| (I'm very, very black) |
| And that is all I, that is all I know |
| And that is all I, that is all I know |
| That is all I… is all I know |
| And that is all I, that is all I know |
