Embrace the negro
who did what had to be done
living to fight another dark day
Dark days don't end
in the skin I'm in
Dare to take pride in Pullman porters
maids and The Underground Railroad
Channel the sheriff held at gunpoint
in the movie Blazing Saddles
cunning as black
on Black
"I shot the sheriff...
but I didn't shoot no deputy"
Deputize your brother's brother
in an effort to take back
what is rightfully yours
Present in the knowledge of self
shake the stigma of the past
as you reclaim your negro
