UMI Says

I don't wanna write this down

I wanna tell you how I feel right now

I don't wanna take no time to write this down

I wanna tell you how I feel right now, heyTomorrow may never come

For you Umi

Life is not promised

Tomorrow may never show up

For you Umi

This life is not promisedI ain't no perfect man

I'm trying to do, the best that I can,

With what it is I have

I ain't no perfect man

I'm trying to do, the best that I can,

With what it is I havePut my heart and soul into this song (yes yes)

I hope you feel me

From where I am, to wherever you are

I mean that sincerely

Tomorrow may never come

For Umi

Life is not promised

Tomorrow may never appear

You better hold this very moment very close to you (right now)

Very close to you (right now)

So close to you, So- close to you (your moment in history is right now!)

Don't be affraid, to let it shineMy Umi said shine your light on the world

Shine your light for the world to see

My Abi said shine your light on the world

Shine your light for the world to see

(I want black people to be free, to be free, to be free)

My Abi said shine your light on the world

(Want black people to be free, to be free, to be free)

Shine your light for the world to see

(Want black people to be free, to be free, to be free)

My Umi said shine your light on the world

(Want black people to be free, to be free, to be free)

Shine your light for the world to see

(Want black people to be free, to be free)Sometimes I get discouraged

I look around and, things are so weak

People are so weak

Sometimes,

Sometimes I feel like crying

Sometimes my heart gets heavy

Sometimes I just want to leave and fly away [fly fly fly, like a dove]

Sometimes I don't know what to do with myself [ow!]

Passion takes over me

I feel like a man

Going insane

Losing my brain

Trying to maintain

Doing my thing

Hey hey hey hey hey

Put my heart and soul into this y'all

I hope you feel me

Where I am, to wherever you are

Sometimes I don't want to be bothered

Sometimes I just want a quiet life, with

Me and my babies, me and my lady

Sometimes I don't want to get into no war

(Black people to be free, to be free)

Sometimes I don't wanna be a soldier

Sometimes I just wanna be a man, butUmi said shine your light on the world

Shine your light for the world to see

My Abi said shine your light on the world

Shine your light for the world to see

(I want black people to be free, to be free, to be free)

My dreamers said shine your light on the world

(Want black people to be free, to be free, to be free)

Shine your light for the world to see

(Want black people)

My elders said shine your light on the world (Hey hey)

Shine your light for the world to seeI want black people to be free, to be free, to be free

All my people to be free, to be free, to be free

Oh black people to be free, to be free, to be free

Oh black people to be free, to be free, to be freeThat's all that matters to meBlack people unite and let's all get down

Gotta have what,

Gotta have that love

Peace and understanding

One God, one light

One man, one voice, one mic

Black people unite come on and do it right

Black people unite come on and do it right

Black people unite come on and get down

Gotta have what,

Love, peace and understanding

One God, one voice, one life

One man, gon' shine my light

Black people unite, now hop up and do it right

Black people unite, now come on and do it right

Yeah baby that's what I like

Yeah baby that's what I like

Yeah baby that's what I like,

Black people, my people
