[00:31.790]You need to hear about beautiful black things
[00:34.309]'Cause most time we hear about black
[00:36.807]We hear about black magic and black witches
[00:39.694]Black list, black book, black market
[00:41.963]Black Friday, ya spend off your black riches
[00:44.649]I've never seen a doctor in black
[00:46.442]Nor seen a black pill fi cure no black people
[00:49.361]But I've seen bush doctors like Tosh and Marley
[00:52.127]Resurrect like a real black beatle
[00:54.647]Malcom, Marcus, Martin
[00:56.838]When you see Walter Rodney ask him
[00:59.292]How you nuh hear about Howell often
[01:01.708]So when the likkle offspring asking, tell them
[01:04.521]They never told us, that black is beautiful

[01:14.238]They never told us, that black is beautiful
