Black Boy Lyrics

The street is so cold like stone prison walls
A child growing older all alone
The wind in your eyes, no tears ever fall
A man got to hide his fears
Black boy, I hope that you see
The loneliness ain't what it seems
Hold on to your dreams, black boy

You keep your eyes mean out of sight on your face
Or they'll pick you clean every time
Not one loving hand to ease you on your way
No, you never, never, never, never, never, never land on your knees

Black boy, I hope that you see
The promise of the golden dream
Hold on to your dreams, black boy

I hope that you see the loneliness ain't what it seems
Hold on to your dreams, black boy
Black boy, yeah
Keep on believing in yourself, black boy
Keep on believing
