Riding through the garden, lighter on me, spark it
Tote from the L, smokin' Bob Marley
Movin' through the city like a 50 grand army
Protected, grandma sowed the Ankh on my garments
Don't run from my tears, the soul don't tarnish
Melanin strong, it remind 'em of they karma
Crusin', listening to Gil, bending corners
Saving the children, still something that we honor
6:25 on a Sunday
Crack a smile, sun kissing on my folk face
We so beautiful, I must say
I must say, I must say
Black so beautiful
Black so beautiful
Black is beautiful
Black so beautiful
Black so beautiful, beautiful, uh
Black so beautiful, yeah, yeah
Black is beautiful, beautiful
Black so beautiful, beauty

Seeded watermelon in a bowl
The pure things, granddaddy garden backside of the home
Taught me patience, to allow the fruit to grow
Feed the village like he used to do some families down the road
My father's father took the eye out of a cop that called him nigga
He did two years in the pen, I guess my pen the same as his is, bold
Soul music playing from the tapes, Muscadine grapes
Thick like the skin on my folks, I remember as roll
The smell of cig smoke
Uncle Charles at the sto', the family I hold close
Taking note, riding, looking out the window
Over my people
Damn, Black is beautiful
