Black Men

Black men of today lets start being fathers And setting examples for our sons and daughters Lets treat not only yourselves but women with respect So the youth can grow up, think, and reflect Men always held the family down and that's real good But yo family is at home not in the hood No its not in the streets or at the house of yo little side freak They are the people who make you strong and never weak Black men you are the MLK's, the Malcolm X's, and the Obama's in this world So prove what you can do to every boy and every girl You don't have to be a rapper or a basketball star You got education so that's gonna take you far Stop falling into the trap that the white man has laid Be smart get your own label and get paid It is up to you to set the path for others For you for me for your sisters and brothers Its not gonna be easy nothing ever is But now teaching and respect should be the new dope biz
