Black Child

“Black boy, black girl, just don’t cry You weak child if you show whats inside” Turn emotion into rage thats our life Cuz nobody said affections alright Wish I didn’t care whats said about me I can’t help it someone said an egos way more important Feeling like it’s demons fighting for me Cuz ain't nobody there to say "it's alright, it's alright" Tell me Where do I go who do I turn to When I’m alone with the world on my shoulders When I start thinkin' “Maybe they’re better off without me...I’m just a problem." It gets too hard It gets too hard sometimes Dealing with these emotions when everyone's around you saying  "Black boy, black girl just don’t cry  You weak child if you show whats inside Turn emotion into rage thats your life Cuz nobody cares about whats inside” But don’t give up and don’t give in Cuz your tears are stronger than they make it seem When you don’t think its okay Just take a minute, push to the limit I'm here to tell you, "you gone be alright" I'm here to tell you, "you gone be alright" It ain’t nothin better than your life And you only gonna have the chance at one try You just sit in your room staring at blank walls that cause typhoons in your head And you pray for better days but who knows what day it'll be okay You ain’t gotta hide from what you’re feelin' All the pain you feel is gonna help you in your healin' So don’t give up and don’t give in Cuz your tears are stronger than they make it seem When you don’t think its okay Just take a minute, push to the limit yeah It’s gon' be hard It’s gon' be hard sometimes Dealin' with these emotions just Don’t listen when they say “Black boy, black girl just don’t cry  You weak child if you show what's inside Turn emotion into rage thats your life Cuz nobody cares about what's inside" But don’t give up and don’t give in Cuz your tears are stronger than they make it seem When you don’t think its okay Just take a minute, push to the limit I'm here to tell you, "you gone be alright" I'm here to tell you, "you gone be alright" There ain’t nothin better than your life And you only got one chance It’s alright It’s gonna be alright It’s gonna be alright It’s gonna be alright, yeah yeah It’s okay to cry You'll be alright, yeah yeah It’s okay to cry
