Lyrics

[Verse 1] I swear these beats will have me pouring my soul out The job of a man is taking care of the whole house Everyday I pray the kids don't go down the wrong route I understand a father's value now that I'm grown now So I'm tryna raise responsible black women Tell 'em bout their history and why being black's privileged Teach 'em bout their life, same way that my dad did it But I'ma guide 'em through in the way that my dad didn't I'm booking flights to wherever the girls ask Kobe showed the world it's dope being a girl dad Show 'em to use a gun to protect they self We talk intellectual property, invest in self You know Nahliyah rocking jewellery and they both be threats I make the right decisions now, there'll be no regrets I had these kinda talks with God cause He knows me best And He always get me through so I know we blessed [Chorus] You know the black child is beautiful and precious Why is the black child used to being oppressed then? They think the black child is usually aggressive But the black child is usually in depression You know the black child is powerful, intelligent So why they treat the black child like they irrelevant? Obama showed the black child could be the president Sky's the limit black child, you was Heaven sent [Verse 2] Damn, a cop just killed another black man And we saw it happen all up on the dash cam My daughter called, wanna know what happened Why them cops shoot their guns if some kids didn't have 'em I kept it real and told her "Baby they scared of us" We lapped 'em and they started four hunnid years ahead of us They see our confidence, confuse it with arrogance Plus the mind state the slave masters had, they inherited But she's a strong black beautiful queen Stay focused and motivated while pursuing your dreams I'll make sure to hold you down so you don't want for a thing Set good examples for your sister cause she watch everything The black child could be dealing with mental health We been crying out for years to get some help But they just let the cops kill us and that's wild Growing up in society is hard for a black child [Chorus] You know the black child is beautiful and precious Why is the black child used to being oppressed then? They think the black child is usually aggressive But the black child is usually in depression You know the black child is powerful, intelligent So why they treat the black child like they irrelevant? Obama showed the black child could be the president Sky's the limit black child, you was Heaven sent
