Ain't i black ain't I strong my culture came along way and we still exist ain't i black i love listening to oldies motown to be exact soul food is my favorite dish partying and dancing is my favorite thing ain't I black I hang out with my brothers laugh and sip hennesy remenice on all the old memories poverty is were you can find me trying my best to hit the lottery 9 to 5 ain't getting it fighting to stay alive because my own kind is like my enemy trapped in a crooked system looking back on black history we came along way from Rosa Parks refusing to sit on the back of the bus,Martin Luther King marching in the streets preaching peace still getting beat,Rodney King screaming in the LA streets Nat Turner tired of seeing his people hung he tried to fight back and his body was flayed, beheaded and quartered terrified kids witnessed this torture ain't i black ain't I strong they hate to see unity so they poisoned are community and still none of your drugs got through to me aint i black aint i strong im a good brother that come from the slums were the streets is full of bums and life feels like its hard to carry on but still I rise still I strive can't nothing stop this black pride!

very strong medicine for the mind/about time and the ability to survive/ only that is not where we belong/ black is strong in community, not so much isolated and tied up in a just get by mentality. nicely laid out and packed with hard hitting true to the road of hardship we are led, bred and tied to. problem is ...we've been lied to. because where we come from and we're headed can only get better,
