All I do

All I Do Is Think Black (Rap Song Version)

Conscious Rap / Revolutionary Flow

Yeah…

This bigger than music…

This mindset…

Rough, right, strong—still labeled wrong

From weed to weaves to chains and songs

From radios, cars to the girls we chase

We shape the culture but don’t own the space

Righteous and angry, loud then timid

Big dreams but the support stay limited

Heavy influence, little control

Got all the answers but stripped of the role

Fight or fall back, lazy sometimes

Four hundred years still paying for crimes

Fifty more passed, still feeling the heat

Still trying to rise from the same old seat

We built with passion, power in speech

Carry the world but can’t find peace

Creative minds, beauty divine

Still get boxed in, still confined

All I do is think Black

Every move, every track

From the roots to the now

Yeah I carry that

All I do is think Black

Truth deep, no mask

We been more than they told

Now we taking it back

Up-risers, survivors, we stride through pain

Game changers, builders, redesign the frame

Heroes in silence, still get stifled

Truth in our hands but the system’s titled

We see through lies that they paint in white

Feel the pressure every day, every night

World feel heavy, like it’s dying alive

Still we push just to keep hope alive

We greater than what we was taught to believe

Stripped of identity crossing the seas

Still find peace in the roots of the trees

But forget our seeds, forget what we need

We take what we get, turn scraps to gold

But we know deep down we deserve more

So when we gon’ rise? When we gon’ unite?

When we gon’ see with a clearer sight?

All I do is think Black

Every move, every track

From the roots to the now

Yeah I carry that

All I do is think Black

Truth deep, no mask

We been more than they told

Now we taking it back

When we gon’ love like brothers again?

When we gon’ stop fighting each other again?

When we gon’ break from the system we in?

Money and chains disguised as a win

When we gon’ write truth and stand on it?

When we gon’ build and expand on it?

When we gon’ stop being stifled inside

And move as a force we can’t deny?

Black ain’t evil…

Black ain’t wrong…

Black been feared…

Black been strong…

They fear what they never could understand

So they tried to control it with fearful hands

Keep us low, keep us working the land

But we rising again with a different plan

This a mental shift, this a revolution

Not confusion—this evolution

All I do is think, speak, live that truth

From the elders down to the youth

All I do is think Black

Till I fade to black

Every breath, every step

I’m reclaiming that

All I do is think Black

Never losing that

From the past to the future

We proving that

All I do…

Is think Black…

That’s all I do…
