Black Love (feat. Andy Mkosi)

I remember while growing up, I was bullied simply for

The color of my skin, and the texture of my hair

I couldn't quite comprehend at that tender age

Why did I look so different from the images I've seen?

I failed to see, the many colors in me

Hand crafted by the one above

And if all that counts lies inside

I think it's time we begin the process of healing

Black love, that's love

Black love, that's love

Yes, we can get lost in all the outside noise

Trying to live up to one standard clearly makes no sense at all

Yes, we can get better, taking off my blinkers

My philosophies and how I view the world have changed, you see

While you fuss and fight

I choose to walk in the light

I was finally forced to face my truth

Colorblind state of mind what a time to be alive

Sowing seeds of hope, faith and love

Black love, that's love

Black love, that's love

Black Love, that's love

Black Love, that's love

Mirror, mirror on the wall

Who's the darkest of them all.

My favorite hue is navy blue, the color of my skin too

I want to know love, black love like a waterfall seen on the wound

I want to heal, I want to do it soon

Want us to be seen like the kings and the queens we are

This skin is a royal robe, wear it like its confidence

I want that I love you, you love me, we are happy family

With a kiss from me to you it's just innocence, we're passionate

And at times we fail to action it

We got that hood love, confused love, that tough love

Black love is revolutionary

Black love, that's love

Black love, that's love

Black love, that's love

Black love, that's love
