Lupe Fiasco - All Black Everything[00:00:00]
Sometimes[00:00:07]
You just gotta[00:00:09]
Go [00:00:11]
You would never know what you could ever be[00:00:12]
If you never tried you would never see[00:00:16]
Stayed in Africa we ain't never leave[00:00:17]
So there wasn't no slaves in our history (All black everything )[00:00:19]
Wasn't no slave ships wasn't no misery[00:00:21]
Call me crazy or isn't he [00:00:23]
See I fell asleep and I had a dream[00:00:29]
It was all black everything[00:00:31]
Uh and we ain't get exploited[00:00:33]
White man ain't fear it so he did not destroy it[00:00:36]
We ain't work for free see they had to employ it[00:00:40]
Built it up together so we equally appointed[00:00:43]
First 400 years see we actually enjoyed it[00:00:46]

Call me crazy or isn't he [00:01:27]
See I fell asleep and I had a dream[00:01:30]
It was all black everything[00:01:32]
Uh and it ain't no projects[00:01:35]
Keepin' it real's not an understood concept[00:01:38]
Yeah complexion's not a contest[00:01:40]
'Cause racism has no context[00:01:42]
Hip-hop ain't got a section called conscious[00:01:45]

You would never know what you could ever be[00:02:17]

Stayed in Africa we ain't never leave[00:02:21]
So there wasn't no slaves in our history (All black everything )[00:02:24]
Wasn't no slave ships wasn't no misery[00:02:26]
Call me crazy or isn't he [00:02:31]
See I fell asleep and I had a dream[00:02:35]
It was all black everything[00:02:36]
Uh and I know this just a fantasy[00:02:36]
I cordially invite you to ask "Why can't it be "[00:02:36]
Now we can't do nothin' 'bout the past[00:02:37]
But we can do something 'bout the future that we have[00:02:38]
We can make it fast or we can make it last[00:02:39]
Every woman queen and every man a king and[00:02:39]

You would never know what you could ever be[00:02:40]

Stayed in Africa we ain't never leave[00:02:42]
So there wasn't no slaves in our history (All black everything )[00:02:43]
Wasn't no slave ships wasn't no misery[00:02:43]
Call me crazy or isn't he [00:02:43]
See I fell asleep and I had a dream[00:02:45]
It was all black everything[00:02:45]
All black everything[00:02:47]
