[00:03.425]Mm, Supa Good
[00:10.223]Inglewood
[00:11.445][Verse 1: D Smoke]
[00:11.854]Purple rain fallin' down on a prince of the coast where the sun shine
[00:16.071]All year 'round (Mm)
[00:17.557]Purple haze over landscapes, still I hydrate in a lunch line
[00:21.971]With the smog and clouds (What?) Start me out (Uh)
[00:25.039]This song's in the key of life and love is in need of more
[00:28.458]Young nigga from Inglewood, barefoot on a cedar floor
[00:31.510]If black music is the blood, then my heart has been beatin' more
[00:34.946]Rapidly, happily, I look back on Afeni Shakur
[00:38.076]Her son paved the way, now all eyes on me
[00:40.887]'Cause I'm young, black and gifted, Nina, all eyes gon' see
[00:44.033]If you swung back when faced with a challenge that's meant to break you, unbalanced
[00:48.176]Scales, you ain't average, now throw your hands on three
[00:50.160]Go on and put 'em up for
[00:51.957][Chorus: Jackie Gouche, D Smoke, Both]
[00:52.146]Black magic, black excellence
[00:53.960]Black habits, this black medicine, everything
[00:57.910]Black Chucks, black tux, everything, everything
[01:01.352]Black hug, black love, everything
[01:04.058]Praise black Jesus, play black Moses
[01:06.852]Give 'em flowers while they still here, black roses, everything
[01:10.531]Black tie, black ride, everything, everything
[01:13.659]Black pride, black lives, everything (Ah-ah-ah)
[01:16.906][Post-Chorus: D Smoke]
[01:17.744]Skin noir, friends noir, here you are, black
[01:20.610]Everything you need, better believe you are that (Say it)
[01:23.891]Skin noir, friends noir, here you are, black, every—
[01:27.789][Verse 2: D Smoke]
[01:28.163]Every time they hear this, they gon' say "He made a anthem"
[01:30.557]Life ain't a panda, shit ain't black and white, it's a canvas
[01:34.027]Spike Lee your dreams and Bruce Lee your tantrums
[01:36.459]To beat that bullshit and go Michael Jordan, go Samson
[01:39.588]Knock down the walls around me, strong and dark and so handsome, uh
[01:43.214]Everything around me is shinin' dark and the time is divine
[01:46.538]I found a spark, when the clouds leak, in the rainfall I found peace
[01:49.459]I'm black as the concrete, black as the street that's lined with the palm trees
[01:53.273]I'm black as the night sky when you broke and your bread and your bacon just don't meet
[01:56.199]Black as the bottom of Chuck Taylors, black on some "**** haters"
[01:59.403]Black as the burned rubber hittin' donuts in front of the store where two months later
[02:02.458]They got stopped and the cops found a black burner underneath the seat on some Nat Turner
[02:05.437]Black as the judge robe when the case closed, now your life on the back burner
[02:08.925][Chorus: Jackie Gouche, D Smoke, Both]
[02:09.386]Black magic (Black magic), black excellence (Black excellence)
[02:12.076]Black habits (Black habits), this black medicine (Yeah), everything
[02:15.340]Black Chucks, black tux, everything, everything
[02:18.661]Black hug, black love, everything
[02:21.205]Praise black Jesus (Yeah), play black Moses (Hah)
[02:23.930]Give 'em flowers while they still here, black roses, everything
[02:28.146]Black tie, black ride, everything, everything
[02:31.338]Black pride, black lives, everything (Ah-ah-ah)
[02:33.778][Post-Chorus: D Smoke]

[02:47.087][Verse 3: D Smoke]
[02:47.302]Mira negrito, puro amor pa' mis morenitos
[02:50.311]Hice un giro cambiando idioma'
[02:51.423]Vuelan palomas encima del rollercoaster
[02:54.688]Cerca de la playa, ocean view
[02:56.823]Blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice, we dancin' to soca, too
[02:59.858]Only **** with few real niggas that chill with us, bear with us and deal with us
[03:03.862]Never pulled a trigger aimin' at another man, but real hitters still pick up the phone
[03:07.154]Ayy, Smoke, what you need? I ain't on this mission alone
[03:11.274]Used to dream of really stackin' my funds, now my window's just as black as my guns
[03:13.071]I feel divine, it came on time, God never changes
[03:16.221]Ain't gon' lie, I lost faith and cried, then my faith revived
[03:19.522]And as soon as I let go and surrendered to him my talents
[03:22.902]This young king took off like, "Go, Go Gadget", there go that
[03:25.973][Chorus: Jackie Gouche, D Smoke, Both]
[03:26.641]Black magic, black excellence
[03:28.795]Black habits, this black medicine, everything
[03:32.700]Black Chucks, black tux, everything, everything
[03:35.709]Black hug, black love, everything
[03:38.536]Praise black Jesus, play black Moses
