Black King

Your Throne Awaits

In A Kingdom Worth More Than Any Amount of Vibranium In Wakanda

Black King

Black King Said, “Your King is Blackness”

And We Took It As A Message From The King

Not To Bow Down To Over-Cast, Black Caricatures of our Image

Black King

King of Games

Ran Through Stadiums Instead of Cotton Fields

Showed Us How 42 Would Live On As 24 in the Sports Field

Black King

Black Judge

Gave Us Dreams of One Day Having White Folk Callin’ Us, “Your Honour”

As We Marshall The Courts

Not “Yes, Massa” 

Not “No, Suh” 

Not “I’s Gets To It, Big Man Cracka”

You Sholl’ Did Good, Thurgood!

Black King

Told Black Boy

“You Better Get on Up”

Black King

Told White Man

“I’m Black & I’m Proud”

Black King

Had Audacity To Tell Cops

“I’m Super Bad”

Now That’s A Bad Mutha--”

shutcho’ mouth!

Black King 

Black Soldier

Black Before Being A Soldier Connected By Da Blood of 5 Negroes

Knowing That Black Man Fought For White Wars

Just To Get A Seat At The White Table

When We Built The Muthafucka In The First Place

Chadwick, You Said It Best,

“I Say The USA Owe Us!”

Black King

Black King

We Ain’t A Fan of Cops, Let Alone NYPD

While Also Being The First Cop To Speak First & Shoot Later

Nah, They Didn’t Deserve You.

So God Blessed You With Your Own Militia
