Black Is Black Lyrics

Brothers and sisters
The pride is backBlack is black
I'm black and I'm proud
You can't take that
Don't want to
Say it loud
Black is black
Brothers and sisters
So we brought it backYou feel inferior
You wanna be superior
You imitate the man
Who don't wanna be dead, ya
Step to the left
Look at yourself
You are you and nobody else
Your skin is black
A different shade of brown
Your tin is too hot

So I will bring it down
Can change your voice
And where you live at
But the bottom line is, brother
Black is blackBlack is black
I'm black and I'm proud
You can't take that
Don't want to
Say it loud
Black is black
Brothers and sisters
So we brought it backThe picture is clear
You got a lot of fear
Of bein' a black brother
But we're in here
Don't run and hide
Do you have pride
Of bein' proud about it
And the inside
Of you
My point of view
Real black brothers
Are very few
Brown's just a black one
Black's just a brown one
Not just a white one
When we're killin' off the black oneBlack is black
I'm black and I'm proud
You can't take that
Don't want to
Say it loud
Black is black
Brothers and sisters
So we brought it backYour [?] made more
It used to be short
So listen up to another black report
Old town, city of the black
We got the [?]
And it's like that
You got promoted
Your head got [?]
You started sweatin', brother
And you know it
It doesn't matter 'bout the [?]
The bottom line is, brother
Black is blackBlack is black
I'm black and I'm proud
You can't take that
Don't want to
Say it loud
Black is black
Brothers and sisters
So we brought it backDon't be silly
Don't be a jackass
You are not a white man
But just a kid
Ask me questions
You get answers
Beat that brother
Sweatin' like cancer
Malcolm one
And [?]
Yeah, brothers
They were together
It doesn't matter where you're from or at
The bottom line is, brother
Black is blackBlack is black
I'm black and I'm proud
You can't take that
Don't want to
Say it loud
Black is black
Brothers and sisters

Brothers and sisters
So we brought it backMan you're in the music biz
Here's a little pop quiz
You know how to dance
But do you dig it
[?] while you're talkin'
You're talkin' about me
What are you doin'
For our community
Little kids
That's lookin' up to you
They wanna grow up
And be like ya
[?]
In your spare time
Their skin is colored black
It's for a life timeBlack is black
I'm black and I'm proud
You can't take that
Don't want to
Say it loud
Black is black
Brothers and sisters
So we brought it backSay it loud
I'm black and I'm proud
Say it loud
