“Black” Lyrics
Upsetter
Accurate, Immaculate
Kabaka Pyramid again
They took us away from our homeland
Carried us across the seas
Put we pon the plantation pon program
Thinking they’re the boss of me
I don’t know what I did to deserve this
Don’t they know what’s right from wrong
And is it cause the melanin in my skin
Makes me have to sing this song
Chorus
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black black black
Anywhere you see me come around, Anywhere you see me come around
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
Anywhere you see me you see blackness,
Nah gonna hold my head down low no
I am comfortable in my own skin,
Nah go see me bleach out Oh no
My ancestors fought so I can be free in this time and sing and be an Icon
They laid the firm foundation on which I stand
That’s why equal rights and justice is ina my plans
And I am an African yute born in the Islands
My melanin skin is part of my brand
So anytime some self righteous fool gwaan like say them no like man
Beg you tell them say
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black black black
Anywhere you see me come around, Anywhere you see me come around
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
Yah man

Black am a proud, Am a proud to be black ,
Never look down and mi never look back
Look at my ears afi look at my locs
Black from mi to mi foot in mi socks
Black as the food that me put in the pot
Haffi season up right when mi putting it back
when mi step in the place and they looking a lot
in my face what you feel like mi stupid or what
I know you wanna judge me for the color of my skin
Just take a good look around we taking over everything
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black black black
Anywhere you see me come around, Anywhere you see me come around
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
Anywhere you see me come around
Anywhere you see the melanin
Anywhere you see me come around,
positive vibes I man a bring
Anywhere you see the Pyramid
Blackness certified
And anywhere you sight Kabaka
Ancestors surround I
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black black black
Anywhere you see me come around, Anywhere you see me come around
Anywhere you see me come around I’m proud to be Black
