[Intro: John Boyega & Coco]
First of all, I wanna thank every single one of you for coming out
This is very important
This is very vital
Black lives have always mattered
Wottice
[Verse 1]
Listen, yo
Black is what? Black is great
Black is something that they wanna imitate
Hear what I'm saying make no mistake
When I say that I'm proud to be black, all day ok
Let's chat about race and ting
Head's in a different space and ting
If your black or mixed race and ting
Too long we've been facing things that need to stop
Fuck the federali cops
It's all good when a black man drops
But it's not cool when a man gets to the top, what
When I walk into the shop, why am I getting watched like I came to rob?
Wait, all them fancy things in your museum, got one question: where did you get them from?
[Chorus]
I love it man
Wouldn't put nothing above it man, I'm black
Cos of my colour man they think that I'm another man I'm black
That's my brother and my sister from the motherland, black
You can't silence me, I'm black
They wanna judge me cos I'm black
I love it man
Wouldn't put nothing above it man, I'm black
Cos of my colour man, they think that I'm another man, I'm black
That's my brother and my sister from the motherland, black
You can't silence me, I'm black
They wanna judge me cos I'm black
[Post-Chorus]
I love it man
I-I love it man
I love it man
Wouldn't put nothing above it man, I'm black
That's my brother and my sister from the motherland
Look at my colour man, they think that I'm another man, I'm-
[Verse 2]
It's not black versus white
It's just us against what's not right
It's not changing overnight
But nobody's going down without a fight
Gotta teach yourself more without a doubt
In front of the people, not out of sight
Out of the window, we're being polite
I don't know who's giving you the green light, but that's not cool
More time for the people trying
No time for a racist fool
Got no faith in the system
Wha' gwarn for the education in school
Everybody gather round of me
We don't rate that silent treatmeant
I don't wanna lose my shit and start switching outside 10 Downing Street
[Chorus]
I love it man
Wouldn't put nothing above it man, I'm black
Cos of my colour man they think that I'm another man I'm black
That's my brother and my sister from the motherland, black
You can't silence me, I'm black
They wanna judge me cos I'm black
I love it man
Wouldn't put nothing above it man, I'm black
Cos of my colour man, they think that I'm another man, I'm black
That's my brother and my sister from the motherland, black
You can't silence me, I'm black
They wanna judge me cos I'm black
[Post-Chorus]
I love it man
I-I love it man
I love it man
Wouldn't put nothing above it man, I'm black
That's my brother and my sister from the motherland
Look at my colour man, they think that I'm another man, I'm black
