Black Boy Destiny
When I was born only had one destiny
I would die or I would go to jail
When I was young nobody saw the best in me
I was just another black boy in hell
But I knew if I tried to achieve
If I tried to be more than they thought I would be
If I knew that I would get this far
Go to college and graduate
Be the captain of my fate
I'll go all the way
Further than they thought I would
cll the way out the hood
Turn my bads into good ill fly
Part the clouds and testify
With all this light in my heart
Break all these curses on me
Generations of pain
Generations of hate all on me
They said I would never go anywhere
So that's why I'm here
Black boy destiny
Rise up to all you can be
Black boy destiny
Rise up to all you can be
In this war there's a price for humanity
cre we lost or are we unwell
What's mine is yours
Your pain belongs to me
But together we'll undo this spell
But I knew if I tried to achieve
If I tried to be more than they thought I would be
if I knew that I would get this far
Go to college and graduate
Be the captain of my fate
I'll go all the way
Further than they thought I would
cll the way out the hood
Turn my bads into good ill fly
Part the clouds and testify
With all this light in my heart
Break all these curses on me
Generations of pain
Generations of hate all on me
They said I would never go anywhere
So that's why I'm here
Black boy destiny
Rise up to all you can be
Black boy destiny
Rise up to all you can be
cll you can be

Rise to your destiny
Black man don't cry
Black man just fight

Loves where you belong
