Buckshot LeFonque - Black Monday lyrics

[Chorus] Black Monday That's what this joint is all about Black Monday A million men strong without a doubt Black Monday It's not just a role that one plays Black Monday So we can have justice one day Black Monday Black, Black Monday Hey Yo, be, I thougt we conquered the world When a million men came and shined like a Black pearl This time there was no black on black crime 'Cause everybody was thinkin' of ways that pays for The black mind One & equal Not thinkin' of wealth But knowledge of self So the past won't repeat like a sequel Visions of unity Strong in the community The same song sung for diplomatic immunity Is soon to be reality Not just a formality, an actuality Built strong by our morality Can you see what I can see One force that be lettin' me be what I be Without costing me members of my family tree One man can stand for all But who got his back when he fall Yo, I had a dream that one day One million men stood strong and we called it Black Monday Black Monday Black Monday Black, Black Monday By now we all know that some wrongs have Been committed So be wise, organize my man Yo, you with it? Let's have the courage to stand up and speak out Reach out and help out No doubt See we can actually make a difference The politicians got game, but I say who are They kiddin' Seriously, we gotta get our own thing tight 'Cause we ain't even learned To treat our own peeps right You don't have to be a scholar to acknowledge You shouldn't harm your own just 'cause your Fiendin' for dollars That's messed up, so fess up It's good for the soul Repent Change your ways Exhibit more self control We must be willin' to stop the k**in' 'Cause if not We'll destroy what our forefathers were building Step up Do something It's your duty and purpose All the material pleasures ultimately are worthless Curses They are not needed to explain that You will wreck your brain If you do not maintain Reconciliation, restoration and resolution Atonement Completion of perfect union Black Monday [Chorus]
