Song lyrics
I am black ambition,
I am always whispering,
They keep telling me I will not,
But my will won't listen.
Gravity on a black man
With everything on his back, and
His family and passion,
If the doors ain't cracking
[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
You gotta let go (Let go)
If you want to fly take the leap,
You gotta risk it all (Risk it all)
Or they'll be lots of things you'll never see.
You gotta let, let go,
'Cause you never know what's in store,
Mister entrepreneur.
[Verse 1: Pharrell Williams]
In this position with no choice,
A system imprison young black boys,
Distract with white noise,
The brainwashed become hype boys.
Third eye dilate,
You wasn't supposed to make it off Sеction Eight,
Robbing Peter just to pay Paul,
Preparе to risk everything.
[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
You need let go (Let go)
If you want to fly take the leap,
You gotta risk it all (Risk it all)
Or they'll be lots of things you'll never see.
Remember black is space
And it's the color of your face,
There will be no sunny days
If black went away.
[Refrain: Pharrell Williams]
Black man, black man, black man! [16x]
Dont go chasing waterfalls, please, stick to the drip that you're used to,
They don't make them like they used to.
[Verse 2: JAY-Z]
Uh, lies told to you, through YouTubes and Hulus,
Shows with no hues that look like you do.
Black Twitter, what's that? When Jack gets paid, do you?
For every one Gucci, support two FUBUs,
Sipping crip-a-Cola consumer and an owner,
Till we all vertically integrated from the floor up.
D'USSÉ pour up, sip Ace till I throw up,
Like gang signs 'cept I bang mines for both ya,
Serial entrepreneur, we own our own stop,
Sitting 'round waitin' for folks to throw you a bone.
If you can't buy the building, at least stock the shelf, (Word)
Then keep on stackin' till you stockin' for yourself, uh,
See, everything you place after black
Is too small a term to completely describe the act:
Black nation, black builder, black entrepreneur,
You in the presence of Black Excellence, I'm on the board, Lord!
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord!
God, God, God, God, God!
Lord, yuh, God!
[Refrain: Pharrell Williams]
Black man, black man, black man! [11x]
[Outro:]
Black man, black man, black man! [8x]
