Black Enciente

[Chorus: Marium Echo]
Carry you
Holding you…
You and me, knowing you
Black and white, showing you
Every time you kicking it
I just hope your safe

Carry you
Holding you…
You and me, knowing you
Black and white showing you
If I stare long enough
I can see your face

[Verse 1: Rukus]
You been pushing for awhile...Did it on your own
Everybody asked if you and dude back on
But it’s just you - Black women go through it
Hardly feel supported, loyalty unrewarded, I know…
You trying to fight away the tears
Carried it for awhile, held this in almost a year
You stare at the ceiling, refuse to be crying
You want something for the pain, you’d be lying, you been trying
To just cope with it, - a little wine right now would be so perfect
Would be so worth it -
But you told yourself, you want to feel every emotion
Whether it’s water, spirit, or hearts that are broken
They think you strong… - cuz your assertive, always leading
But they don’t realize that even queens still be bleeding
You’re human too - and it’s time the world face it
Too many black sisters don’t make it (I can't take it)

[Chorus: Marium Echo]
Carry you
Holding you…
You and me, knowing you
Black and white, showing you...
Every time you kicking it
I just hope your safe

Carry you
Holding you…
You and me, knowing you
Black and white, showing you...
If I stare long enough
I can see your face

[Verse 2]
He was so deep in ya life, - And like that it was finished
Your whole world changed in just a couple of minutes -
He arrived in ya life too soon, You never got where you wanted to go
And then a few weeks pass, You realize you’re out of your flow
And now your thoughts getting out of control…it’ll bother your soul
Life will test you, to see if you stay positive -
Check ya bank account hoping a deposit hits…
You’ve been growing -
Thinking bout the future, scared where the world is going
Gained a little weight, scared that it’s all showing…
But you found your purpose and everyone say you’re glowing
Natural hair no sew-in
And it’s nice like this
Now he texting you out the blue, he ain’t seen you since
He last left you - won’t expect you
To show him the surprise of his life, it’s only right...

[Chorus: Marium Echo]
Carry you
Holding you…
You and me, knowing you
Black and white, showing you...
Every time you kicking it
I just hope your safe

Carry you
Holding you…
You and me, knowing you
Black and white, showing you...
If I stare long enough
I can see your face
