Black And Proud Lyrics

There ain't nothin you can say to make me fall

You can fear me with your hate

But I stand tall

I will survive the things you say, and carry on

Because I am proud

You can abuse me with your words, but I won't move

You can dismiss me with your slurs

But smile I'll choose

My blackness isn't your concern

I am not your fool

Because I am proud

I'm gonna shout it out loud

I am black and proud

Don't care what you say!

Move out of my way

My skin is tougher than you know

It's powerful

400 years of captured souls have made me strong

I pick my battles, have my foes

Still, I rise above

Because I am proud

From the break of dawn

Sun up to sun down

I feel heavenly every morn, as I wear my crown!

I know that soon it won't be long

Til I'm queendom bound

Because I am proud

I'm gonna shout it out loud

I am black and proud

Don't care what you say!

Move out of my way

I shout it cuz I know

My soul is made of gold

Invincible!

I will stand the test of time

Shout it out loud

I am black and proud

Don't care what you say!

Move out of my way

Don't care what you say!

Don't care, don't care, I don't care, oh!

I don't care what you say

Move out of my way, ay
