Black Love Lyrics by Rapsody
(Feat. Malice)
Kingdom coming with some drumming and some truth to tell
Water my roots with pales of ginger ale
I’m sick of BBLs, but what the hell
Now there’s more ass for these white folks to kiss
Ate them licks and still exist
I flick the Bic and smoke a bitch
Intelligence like Emirates
I oversee they ill intent
Don’t be hard rock, be a gem
L told me that, I took that in
Became the wind, I blew these niggas minds again, again, again
Go left of how they write us, light us
Selling bleaching cream for skin, all the while black girls are missing, 350 a gram for melanin
Coincidence, I think it not
Worth more than gold, I know they shop
They harvesting
Conspiracies I’ve yet to shake like Parkinson’s
Can’t part the sins, perfect I never claimed to be
It rain on me, it seem to be, but then I see it’s just tears from my irises
I pray for all my sisters, all my brothers in the fire
It’s hell, jail cell where my cousin collect call me from
I sent cologne, I sent socks, I sent a cell phone and all
Twelve long, yeah, he did them, last day 2012, picked him up
Halfway house, his mind hard to tell still in ’94, what it do to us
Saw for myself the effects of years behind wall
Y’all, let’s discuss
Black pain unfelt like Orajel but everything else they bite from us
I feel Pac, I feel Kodak, I feel the weight of being free ASAP
Can’t turn my back on none of mine, when you understand the history of that
How we adapt when the was phone tapped
Sister Souljah told me no disrespect, I live by that so I love you deeper, no judgment when it come to my people
Black love
Pray for me, respectfully, don’t judge me, you love me? Black love
I pray for you, respectfully, wont judge you, I love you, black love
Brothers who love brothers
Women who love women
Others who love others
God love all us, tears fallen
Lost my cousin, Timmy
Alcoholics love through all it
Know the source and all the wars
We fight alone
The loans they wouldn’t give us, red line districts, looking for some home and hearts and visits
From the other side of the all the people that we’ve lost and missing, hugs and kisses, take more time to pause and give ’em
‘Cause I know pain, lost enough of ’em
Inhale light and exhale sun
My heat and friction internal
Battles ‘tween my mind and heart
She feel that I think too hard, she think that my feeling’s off
My ears heard what I didn’t see, my eyes saw what I didn’t say, my actions reveal I evolved
Saw myself in all of God
Observing all the barking dogs
A wise woman once said nothing, so I learned to listen more
A wise woman once said nothing, so I
Embraced silence, closed my eyelids and I mediated
Learned to breathe, bereave, let go of all the pain my heart gave haven
Truth, I face it, no matter how thin the ice, I’m still gon’ skate it
Shzooom-shzoooom, I balloon and rise above, thank God we made it
For this love, we all are favored
Cousin called collect, reminding me that I am still his favorite
Thank God that he elevated
Twelve long, yeah, he did them, last day 2012, picked him up
Halfway house, his mind hard to tell still in ’94, what it do to us
Saw for myself the effects of years behind wall
Y’all, let’s discuss
Black pain unfelt like Orajel but everything else they bite from us
I feel Pac, I feel Kodak, I feel the weight of being free ASAP
Can’t turn my back on none of mine, when you understand the history of that
How we adapt when the was phone tapped
Sister Souljah told me no disrespect, I live by that, so I love you deeper, no judgment when it come to my people, black love
Pray for me, respectfully, don’t judge me, you love me? Black love
I pray for you, respectfully, won’t judge you, I love you, black love
