Black Monday Lyrics - Singles - Buckshot Lefonque

Chorus: 

Black Monday 

That's what this joint is all about 

Black Monday 

A million men strong without a doubt 

Black Monday 

It's not just a role that one plays 

Black Monday 

So we can have justice one day 

Black Monday 

Black, Black Monday 

Hey Yo, B - I thougt we conquered the world 

When a million men came and shined like a 

black pearl 

This time there was no black on black crime 

'Cause everybody was thinkin' of ways that pays for 

the black mind 

One & equal 

Not thinkin' of wealth 

but knowledge of self 

So the past won't repeat like a sequel 

Visions of unity 

Strong in the community 

The same song sung for diplomatic immunity 

Is soon to be reality 

Not just a formality, an actuality 

Built strong by our morality 

Can you see what I can see 

One force that be lettin' me be what I be 

Without costing me members of my family tree 

One man can stand for all 

But who got his back when he fall 

Yo, I had a dream that one day 

One million men stood strong and we called it 

Black Monday 

Black Monday 

Black Monday 

Black, Black Monday 

By now we all know that some wrongs have 

been committed 

So be wise, organize my man 

Yo, you with it? 

Let's have the courage to stand up and speak out 

Reach out and help out 

No doubt 

See we can actually make a difference 

The politicians got game, but I say who are 

they kiddin' 

Seriously, we gotta get our own thing tight 

'Cause we ain't even learned 

to treat our own peeps right 

You don't have to be a scholar to acknowledge 

You shouldn't harm your own just 'cause your 

fiendin' for dollars 

That's messed up, so fess up 

It's good for the soul 

Repent 

Change your ways 

Exhibit more self control 

We must be willin' to stop the killin' 

'Cause if not 

We'll destroy what our forefathers were building 

Step up 

Do something 

It's your duty and purpose 

All the material pleasures ultimately are worthless 

Curses 

They are not needed to explain that 

You will wreck your brain 

If you do not maintain 

Reconciliation, restoration and resolution 

Atonement 

Completion of perfect union 

Black Monday 

Chorus
