life----line

[Intro]

I'd like to do a number then I'll be curt

Not too long ago

We're beautiful and we didn't have to enjoy

[Verse]

Black woman don't need no man (Yeah)

What is a woman? (What is a woman?)

What is a man? (What is a man?)

What is a black boy? (Black boy)

When will we win? (Win)

Grandma out on the front porch

Feeling her sunny skin

Looking down at the end of my hand

My lifeline never broken (Never broken)

Been in school all week

In my free time I've been smoking

Stop smoking like limp bodies, vultures pokin'

Still to hear my little voice, and I open (And I open)

My dismay, I'm gropin', from the soul, golden

I'm hard in the moment

Just smokin' feels good, don't it?

Smokin' feels good, don't it?

[Outro]

I'd like to do a number then I'll be curt

Not too long ago

The rest is golden if we lit, the rest is golden
