about

Proud to be Black

lyrics

To all my Black brothers and sisters and siblings out here trying to live your life
Who know that when you look like us the world ain't always nice
I'm thinking of you

If they say that you're worth nothing, let me tell you that they're wrong
If they say that you're not good enough, then listen to this song
Shouldn't have to spend so many years oppressed and colonized
But there's nothing more beautiful than living our Black lives
If they say that you're worth nothing, let me tell you that they're wrong
If they say that you're not good enough, then listen to this song
We shouldn't have to spend so many years oppressed and colonized
But there's nothing more important than saving your Black life

Black Lives Matter, Black lives are beautiful
Black Lives Matter, Black lives are beautiful
Black Lives Matter, Black lives are beautiful
Your life matters, your life is beautiful
Black Lives Matter, Black lives are beautiful
Black Lives Matter, Black lives are beautiful
Black Lives Matter, Black lives are beautiful
Your life matters, your life is beautiful
Black Lives Matter, Black lives are beautiful

I draw inspiration from soul artists, masters of harmony, gospel icons, people who just make you feel some kind of way, and everyone in between. ... more
