Lyrics

I am black ambition I am always whisperin' They keep telling me I will not But my will won't listen Gravity on a black man With everything on his back and His family and passion If the doors ain't crackin' You gotta let go (let go) If you wanna fly take the leap You gotta risk it all (risk it all) Or they'll be lots of things you'll never see You gotta let, let go 'Cause you never know what's in store Mister Entrepreneur In this position with no choice A system imprison young black boys Distract with white noise The brainwashed become hype boys Third eye dilate You wasn't supposed to make it off Sеction Eight Robbin' Peter just to pay Paul Preparе to risk everything You need let go (let go) If you wanna fly take the leap You gotta risk it all (risk it all) Or they'll be lots of things you'll never see Remember black is space And it's the color of your face There will be no sunny days If Black went away Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Don't go chasing waterfalls Please stick to the drip that you're used to They don't make them like they used to Uh, lies told to you, through YouTubes and Hulus Shows with no hues that look like you do Black Twitter, what's that? When Jack gets paid, do you? For every one Gucci, support two FUBUs Sipping crip-a-Cola consumer and an owner, uh 'Til we all vertically integrated from the floor up D'Usse pour up, sip Ace 'til I throw up Like gang signs 'cept I bang mines for both ya Serial entrepreneur, we own our own Stop sitting 'round waiting for folks to throw you a bone If you can't buy the building at least stock the shelf (word) Then keep on stacking 'til you stocking for yourself, uh See, everything you place after black Is too small a term to completely describe the act Black nation, black builder, black entrepreneur You in the presence of Black Excellence And I'm on the board, Lord Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord God, God, God, God, God Lord, yuh, God Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man Black man, Black man, Black man
