Music Lyrics Source
This is a song for the colored boys whose rainbows forgot how to bloom
Whose muse forgot how to change into sons
Rainbows in the ghetto
Gotta let ‘em know
Every kind of self-knowledge I have ever touched within myself, at no matter what cost, and there have been times when it’s been very costly. There is no place that I have touched that has not given me, not just knowledge, but power overall
So sometimes your birthday rolls around and it’s not necessarily the most, like, you know…
Yo mouth is getting me down honey
Why don’t you just leave and be an assassin?
Who knew the DDC was this long
Like them long johns
Mmm… Plantains (Ahhh yeah)
(D) DDC add the extra flavor (DC)
(Instrumental)
Yo this is 25 to D/DC
We movin’ like Africans moved across the middle passage (Philly)
Ventura County (Senegal), moving all day (Jamaica) back and forth and now)
Negro boys, and negro girls
Negro us, in a negro world
