Black Women by THA CAPITAL G Lyrics
[John Boyega Speech] (Background voices supporting John as he cries)
This message is specifically for Black men
Black men
(Speak! Speak! You’ve got this, John, you’ve got this)
(You’ve got this, John. John, you’ve got this, you’ve got this)
(They’re listening)
Black men, Black men, we need to take care of our Black women
We need to care of them, they are ours, they are our hearts
They are our future, we cannot demonize our own
[Sandra Bland]
Good morning my beautiful kings and queens
I love you all dearly, I hopе you have a great day
Good afternoon my bеautiful kings and queens
I am into building up my kings and queens
So for me, Black Lives Matter
Good evening my kings and queens
Know that I am still praying for you all
And I ask that you pray for me, while I pray for you
Sandy Speaks
[Verse 1: THA CAPITAL G]
This is a celebration, you are so amazing
Your natural beauty’s something I’m always embracing
Your skin is a pure gem no matter the shading
Onyx, obsidians, tourmaline, opals, no slating
And I don’t need sexual attraction or dating
To respect you when birthed the whole world, no caping
Every human’s DNA has a Black woman’s traced in
You are God’s gift to earth, Her greatest creation
You are what it means to be human, you’re the best of us
A shame that you’re treated worse than the rest of us
You’re the most educated, yet you’re the most hated
You’re also the boldest and the bravest
It’s time for Black men to be a bit more courageous
And protect you from people who think that they can degrade us
Every time I see you I’m like oh my goodness gracious
Sweet aroma, glowing aura, and effortless effervescence, vivacious
[Hook: THA CAPITAL G]
Black women
You have a warm glow and it feels like sunlight
Black women
You make the world so bright
Light as the day or dark as night
Love your skin tone, it’s just right
You are human, you are life
So beautiful, you’re a beautiful soul
[Oluwatoyin Ruth Salau]
Wherever the fuck I go, I’m profiled
Look at my fuckin’ hair, look at my skin, bruh
This shit - I can’t take this shit off
So guess what, I’ma die about it
[Verse 2: THA CAPITAL G]
Black Trans women, I love you
Always praying for you and always thinking of you
All I want is sunshine and clear skies above you
And to protect you from every single bigot who bugs you
They’re killing you for real and it’s killing me inside
I promise to fight for you until you don’t have to hide
Light blue, pink, black, raise your flag with pride
I accept you with all my heart and my arms open wide
Black people who are anti-LGBT
Really need to go and learn African history
Black people who are anti-LGBT
Are direct products of white supremacy
The same white supremacy that killed Sandra Bland
The sweetest woman ever, I just don’t understand
Seeing Breonna Taylor’s smile gives me trembling hands
Oluwatoyin Ruth Salau, I’m so damn sorry, I am
[Hook: THA CAPITAL G]

Black women

Love your skin tone, it’s just right
You are human, you are life
So beautiful, you’re a beautiful soul
[Tamika Palmer, Breonna Taylor’s mother]
Breonna was - she would be so proud to see these people
All these different people, all around the world
Just different age groups
Everybody coming together and, and standing for something
[Protest Crowd]
Say her name!
Breonna Taylor!
Say her name!
Breonna Taylor!
Say her name!
Breonna Taylor!
