A man must be strong, to live long |
|
Shake the negative vibe, trying to stay alive |
|
But I never said it would be easy |
|
Living in a system that you can't win |
|
But by the time you know and slow |
|
Folks hardly want to say hello |
|
But since we've got our pride we'll survive |
|
We believe in the black beauty |
|
Shake the negative vibe trying to stay alive |
|
Wherever you go please remember |
|
If you can't be good be careful be joyful |
|
Oh, we've come a long way and still here |
|
Been through all the stress |
|
And all the stress and fears |
|
But since we've got our pride |
|
We'll survive we believe in the black beauty |
|
Shake the negative vibe trying to stay alive |
|
Wherever you go please remember |
|
That Jah is on your side trying to stay alive |
|
Cause by the time you go and slow |
|
The system didn't wanna see you, wanna see you, wanna see you no more |
|
But since we got our pride |
|
We believe in the black beauty |
|
Shake the negative vibe trying to stay alive |
|
My brother move on |
|
And stand firm in your struggle |
|
Jumping all the hurdle shed your burden |
|
I might say it's easier said than done |
|
Oh, but our race, our race is a hard one to run |
|
But if you got your pride you'll survive |
|
If you believe in your black beauty |
