Lyrics

That feeling
You know that feeling when
You win a game of spades and slap the table with the cards ****
I wake up every day to sunshine and black joy
For them beautiful black girls and them fearless black boys
Doing all that dirt cause they ain't understand they had a choice
Manifesting hurt cause they ain't know the power of they voice
Now we know fasho
This that HBCU marching band putting on a show
This your neighborhood church choir that make you catch the holy ghost
This your new favorite song
Shining with no jewelry on I'm truly on my Mansa Musa shit
Cause my culture rich and my lady thick
Shake it right and I might pay ya rent
Summer Olympics in Atlanta 1996
I'm tryna paint a pic
And tell the world about this black joy
You could never steal my black joy
We smile through the hard times
Black joy
Sing it with me now
Black joy
Cookouts and the barbecues
Black joy
Pull up at a HBCU
Black joy
Juneteenth bring the kids through
Black joy
I'ma tell 'em bout this black joy
That feeling
You know that feeling when
They open the fire hydrant on the block
And all the kids play in the water
Ice cream truck pulling up
That feeling
Black skin white smile
I can hear 'em right now
Looking at me like wow that **** got some nerve
These affirmations that I write down
To improve my lifestyle and buy momma a nice house
Cause that's what she deserve
We be fresh out of church
Sunday dinner I need soul food
Hugging on my granny and my auntie with the gold tooth
Today we ain't gone dwell on what we go through
Let's turn on some old school jams and for those who oppose we got poles too ****
Barbershop talk
Salon gossip
Walk out feeling good and looking better on my momma
We had a block party in the ghetto with no drama
Cha-cha, electric slide, cupid shuffle
It's an honor to be black
And I promise that's a fact
Head high
I got pride it don't matter where I'm at
Light an incense and hang it in the door
Ashes drop to the floor
This the soundtrack being black
Sing it once more
We gon' tell 'em about this black joy
They could never steal our black joy
We smile through the hard times
Black joy
Sing it with me now
Black joy
Cookouts and the barbecues
Black joy
Pull up at the HBCUs
Black joy
Kwanzaa, bring the kids through
Black joy
They gon' hear about this black joy
That feeling
You know that feeling when
We just get together
Black joy
Black joy
Black joy
Black joy
Oh you thought we was done
