lirik lagu the brooklyn globetrotter - i am black american
i am black american lyrics
chorus
wanna to thank everybody for coming out tonight
want to introduce you to the album
thank y’all for being here
i am black american!
verse 1
picture me being satisfied with a simple life
when our ancestors here were crucified like christ
pontius pilates swear they blowing out our lights
and these stupid judas’s still not knowing wrong or right
so every couple fortnight’s i’m jumping on a flight
i’m out here globetrotting do it out of spite
for all the dog bites we had to take in civil rights
words i recite marcus garvey get a co~write
i carry his story everyday while chasing glory
study our history yea i’m taking inventory
this is payback our favorite type of category
success living my best life they can’t ignore me
so pardon me if i appear to be a rolling stone
the ancestors had no choice of where they call home
so out of respect the corners of the globe i roam
til they’re satisfied i guessing it’s my life they own
chorus
wanna to thank you’ll again for being here
y’all look so beautiful tonight
it’s a true honor to have you in the house
i am black american!
verse 2
they packed us in ships and stored our bodies underneath
they beat us with whips and tied us up to a tree
they fire hosed us when we was marching peacefully
they rang shots when mlk was on the balcony
i swear to god man all these things be haunting me
what i gotta do i gotta honor them by living free
flights to foreign lands can’t even pr~nounce the currency
i flew to cuba just for cigars man i’m sorry
yea it’s flossing but trust me this is necessary
then southern states ain’t nothing but afro cemeteries
for centuries we was treated colder than february
madame cj walker told me live a life that’s legendary
so i’m forever here reppin’ diaspora souls
i wear their hearts on my sleeve and you can see the holes
from being sold man our family structure stole
my motherland goals ballin’ outta control
chorus
yea, i hit the motherland ballin’ out of control
yea yea yea
i am black american!
