lirik lagu black is beautiful – mawule
verse 1
heart broken, don’t know how to mend it
consistently rejected, telling me, i’m not worth it
feeling conflicted, internalized oppression
the color of my skin, got me feeling all the hated
but black is beautiful, tell me i’m the usual
colluded with oppression as a form of survival
i try to challenge me, thinking i’m the only me
mentally, i find myself just hopeless
pre chorus
blind american, is this really american
cause this is my insanity, my everyday reality
right american, blind american, white america, rise america
blind american, remember what you took from me
my africa, mama africa
right american, blind american, white america, rise america
chorus
let’s make this useful
our lives are fruitful
change what we are use to
black is beautiful
let’s make this useful
our lives are fruitful
change what we are use to
black is beautiful
verse 2
we lost, hope
under the scope of blind rage
how we living in this new jim crow, same cage
another page, in this notebook, of manufactured history
color blinded by simple minded men, in misery
money like control, and manipulate, prospective
speaking , of the old life kings, our objective
to teach, raw truth
to the young black youth
meditate on, unity past the segregation that we see
who paint the picture of, hieroglyphic visions
opening the eyes, past this man made tradition
black is color of my sun kissed skin
transformation, is information, to change us within
i speak life
cause my life worth speaking
preaching to choir, cause these words worth preaching
i’m reaching to the ones who know
to find their inner man, so their inner man glow
pre chorus
blind american, is this really american
cause this is my insanity, my everyday reality
right american, blind american, white america, rise america
blind american, remember what you took from me
my africa, mama africa
right american, blind american, white america, rise america
chorus
let’s make this useful
our lives are fruitful
change what we are use to
black is beautiful
let’s make this useful
our lives are fruitful
change what we are use to
black is beautiful
