lirik lagu b l x c k. i n t e r l v d e. – $aint empee
i’m black
my identity was formed as a revolution because people like me were socially and spiritually colonized
marginalized
brutalized
stolen from our native lands
our cultures were stolen and brought back europeanized to our native lands
the europeans even stolen our native lands
changed the way we live in this native land
stripped the self*knowledge out of the bodies in our minds
traumatized
dеhumanized
i’m black
these humans likе me were subjugated for mere wealth
alienated to be mere labourers – building a new world we have no rights and freedoms over
the system became updated, now we’re working for businesses we have no rights and ownership over
we’re incarcerated and murdered, we’ve been protesting to be systematically perceived and treated as human beings
i’m black
i know myself
i know those that gave birth to me
i know those that gave birth to those that gave birth to me
ndingumxhosa
i know my roots’ so deep like a great tree and i’m standing tall in this world through the weather of the environment that i was put in
they might have forcibly put me in this township and took me away from my ancestors’ way of life
but, they cannot take me away from myself
and, they cannot take away my worth because they don’t even know it
i’m black
black is not the colour of my skin, nah!
black is the colour of the thoughts that my mind is populated with
that means blackness is the state of mind to which i’m an inhabitant
blackness is impeccable and powerful
black is all colours in the colour spectrum in one. yes. black is colourful
i’m dark but don’t throw me a shade, i know that black is beautiful
[skit and “b l x c k” (prelude)]
judge: but why do use a term like “black is beautiful”?
steve biko (denzel washington): because black is commonly associated with negatives. the black markets. the black sheep of the family. anything which is supposed to be bad
judge: then why do you used the word? why do you people call yourselves black? you people are more brown than black
steve biko: why do you call yourselves white? you people are more pink than white!
