A man must be strong, to live long
Shake the negative vibe, trying to stay alive
But I never said it would be easy
Living in a system that you can't win
But by the time you know and slow
Folks hardly want to say hello
But since we've got our pride we'll survive
We believe in the black beauty
Shake the negative vibe trying to stay alive
Wherever you go please remember
If you can't be good be careful be joyful
Oh we've come a long way and still here
Been through all the stress
And all the stress and fears
But since we've got our pride
We'll survive we believe in the black beauty
Shake the negative vibe trying to stay alive
Wherever you go please remember
That Jah is on your side trying to stay alive
Cause by the time you go and slow
The system didn't wanna see you wanna see you
Wanna see you no more but since we got our pride
We believe in the black beauty
Shake the negative vibe trying to stay alive
My brother move on
And stand firm in your struggle
Jumping all the hurdle shed your burden
I might say it's easier said than done
Oh but our race is a hard race to run
But if you got your pride you'll survive
If you believe in your black beauty
