Lyrics Black Man - Frisco

Black man fightin′ for survival
Tryin' to stay alive for my kids, I′m their Idol
Raised in a system designed for me to take the L
So when you see us cryin' hard, that's vital

Please don′t call me urban, I don′t think it, I'm certain
Black king but they tryna make me feel like that′s a burden
Still chasin' the money and even when you get it
They respek you on the sly, still look at man funny

The most oppressed understand the stress
That′s not an angry black girl, that's an Empress
Yes, we live life but we know death
Police kill a black man, then we protest

Listen, I swear down, man I′m tired now
We need change right now, owe it right now
Talk up, this ain't no time to be quiet now
I ain't takin′ time, this ain′t no time for a time-out

The biggest threat in the world ain't no nuclear bomb
If black people unite, you know
Everything′s long, could you imagine it?
Yeah I know man, mad ting

I just pray and wait for the day man partin' it
They just hope it don′t happen, they couldn't manage it
I′m so me, I'm so black with it
I'm on point, I′m on track with it

They killin′ off black people, so if you're ridin′ out
I'm backin′ it
And to be honest, man, the truth of the matter
All lives don't matter till black lives matter

Dawg, this is bigger than a postcode passer
Everyday new clip, new killin′, maza
Turn your card and work twice as harder to level with
Someone you know you're better than, that's kinda hard

They hear the bars and say I′m kinda hard
Forget that, cah right now all I′m tryna do is highlight the scars
Years of oppression, years of self-hate
Years of killin' each other, years of walkin′ with the weapon

I ain't tryna hear "I don′t care what you reckon"
Don't think it′s racist, here, come learn you a lesson
You got us feelin' like our lives are threat
I can't breathe with your knee on my neck
We bleed the same, can′t you see that it′s red?

I can't believe what I seen on the net
P.D.C, you know we pray days change
Wanna see change dawg, you gotta change

Colour of my skin means I′m already guilty
Don't trust the police, you know a lot of them are filthy
Black and I′m proud, say it over and over
Love black lives the way you love black culture

We just want a fair shot
But we can't get it
Now you wonder why we got this big chip on our shoulder

Bring forth your humanity, it′s your weapon
And the biggest weapon in the world today is the power of love
Love is your colour today, yeah
You are not black, you are not white
You are the colour of love
You have the rights, human rights
