Rise Young Black Man Rise
You Know How Much You’re Worth In This World?
As A Black Man We Were Designed To Endure What Others Can’t
Made With Black Beauty Yet Some Folks Still Only See Hate
From The Days Of Emmit Till “Supposedly” Whistling At A Young White Woman
To Later Her Saying He Never Spoke To Her
It Took Years For Her To Speak The Truth
They Burned Down Cities Because We Were Growing Into Something
Now Underground And Under Water Turned Into Nothing
They Tried To Get Rid Of Us By The Bulk Load
Young Black Man Understand This
There’s People Who Will Lie On Your Name Because Your Black
More Importantly It’s A Lot Who Will Love You Know Matter What
Don’t Focus On The Ones Who Scold You As You Walk By
Young Man It’s Plenty Love From One’s Who Pray To God You’ll Say Hi


It’s A Choice Made To Dismiss You Before They Scratch The Surface
We Don’t Understand Defeat, We Teach
Even If We Can’t Get The Same Respect Lead With Peace
You’re So Valuable To The World Black Man I Hope You Know
Putting All The Pressure On Yourself You Don’t Have Too
For Many Reasons The Generations Before You Happened So You Can Walk Your Own Truth
Don’t Be Scared To Live Black Man
Don’t Be Shy To Love Young Black Man
Express Yourself And Don’t Be Confined To The False Narrative Black Man
You’ll Never Be Looked At As Weak

We Are Wonderful
The Self Love You Give Yourself Overpowers When It Seems Like The World Isn’t On Your Side
They Want The Black Face Erased
Will You Continue To Let Them Disrespect You Face To Face?
Ignorance From The White Man Will Never Win
Black Love
Black Faces
Black Everything Again And Again
Continue Being A Natural Born Leader
You Are A Not Mistake
God Made You Destined For Success

Repeat After Me Know Matter If You Look In The Mirror Or Anywhere You Are

“I Am Blessed
God Holds Me Close
I Love You Self
When There’s Nobody To Pick Up The Pieces I Still Stand With My Head Held High
I Mean Something In This World
I’m Black , I’m Excellent And I Will Shine Brighter”

Older Black Man We Have To Be Aware Of Our Youth
Some Grew Up With No Fathers Or Fathers That Aren’t Really Present
Just Step Up And Lead In A Place That May Be Vacant
Young Black Men Need A Mentor
It’s Too Many Of Us Getting Killed
Black Men Reveal That You’re Suppose To Defy Odds Set Against Us
Don’t Let Nobody Steal That Smile Away,
Take The Joy Out Of Being Black
Keep Being Happy And Always Pray
You Don’t Have A Voice?
Make It Heard

Aren’t You Tired Of Black Men And Boys Dying To Violence?
You Don’t Wanna See Each Other Grow Old?
You Rather Help Kill Us When The World Already Wants Us To Fold?
Stop And Think Young Black Men
You’re Smarter Than That
Be Stronger But Remember The Mental And Faith Side Play A Huge Part
Use Your Anger For Better Use
The Women And Children Need Our Young Black Men Too
Hold Your Fist High Young Sir
You Will Not Give Up

The Days Where Dogs Were Sent To Attack Us
Fire Hoses Sprayed Against Us Full Force Them White People Thought It Was A Must
We Came From Something And People Tried To Make Our Culture Nothing
You’re The Future Now Of What Couldn’t Get Done Right Back Then
The Next Century Of Kids Will Look Back At These Moments Of Today’s Time
Can We Make A Good Example Now?
Show Them That They Can Do Anything They Set Their Minds Too


We Have To Come Together
You’re A Young Black Man Known As A National Treasure
Better Yet A Young Black King
Remember It’s Your Job To Introduce Why Being Black Is An Important Thing To The Kids
Young Black Man You’re The Vision Not The Villain
It’s Not About Feeling Forced To Do Something Better
Young King Be A Leader
Our Young Ones Need The Teachers
Your Pride Get In The Way?
Don’t Let Silly Mistakes Have More Kids Get Killed By A Stray
Senseless Violence Stunts Growth In The Mental Young King
Situations Are Allowed To Pan Out With Peace
You Know What’s More Worse?
Most Black Kids Wanna Be In The Streets Instead Of A Classroom
Hardly Can Read
But Will Pull A Gun On You First Thing
It’s Not Ok So Help As Much As You Can
Know Matter How It May Look Young Black King We Will Be Ok

It’s Good Karma When Building Up Young Black Men
I Just Hope We Stop Killing Off Centuries Of Black Generations Before They Turn 18
Fight Together But Not Against One Another
Life Isn’t A Game Young Black King
You’re Capable Of Love
You Should Have A Life Past Your Teens
You Know You’re Allowed To Have Kids Of Your Own To Share These Great Genes
I Know It’s Difficult And It’s Not Gonna Change In One Day Young Black Man
But It Starts Here Today With You
Plenty Of People Don’t Want To Take Time To Educate Our Young Black Men
Don’t Be One Of Those Folks
Use Your Words And Actions
It’s Wisdom
Our Young Kings Will Listen
Some Young Kids Aren’t As Level Headed As Others
Those Are The Ones Who Will Lead Gracefully
We Won’t Give Up On You Young Block Gentleman
Black Love For You Forever
My Young Black Kings
This Is A War Cry To Keep Your Brothers Wing By Wing
