Jac Ross It's OK To Be Black
Looking at this generation feeling hopeless
Looking cross my shoulder keep my eyes open
Keep my mind focus ain't no hocus pocus
Cuz When it's all said and done they will all know us
Trying to bring us down keep us at our lowest
You thought you broke us, uh huh, but you woke us
Be a leader not a follower Modern day Moses
I'm the water to the seeds that becomes roses
Don't let no one put you down
Let me see your smile
Don't cry daughter ( it's ok to be black)
Don't cry baby (it's ok to be black)
Get up my son nothing can hold you back
Don't cry children (it's ok to be black)
Shine shine
You're beautiful inside
Rise up rise up don't you know you can fly
The darker the berry the sweeter the juice
You make not like it
I'm speaking the truth
Just like a panther that's out on the loose
I stand for the people fight for the youth
Don't let no one put you down
Let me see your smile
Don't cry daughter ( it's ok to be black)
Don't cry baby (it's ok to be black)
Get up my son nothing can hold you back
Don't cry children (it's ok to be black)
Shine shine
You're beautiful inside
Rise up rise up don't you know you can fly
The world will judge you
But God knows heart
They say they love you
But leave you in the dark
Child when you fall down
You better get up
Go on dust your crown
Victory is won
Don't cry daughter ( it's ok to be black)
Don't cry baby (it's ok to be black)
Get up my son nothing can hold you back
Don't cry children (it's ok to be black)
Shine shine
You're beautiful inside
Rise up rise up don't you know you can fly
