Black Boy (In Memory of Richard Wright)

歌詞

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 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 Keep on believing in yourself, black boy Keep on believing
