lyrics

That's how great minds think, ayo ayo x 15

Opening verse (Darkie):
Embrace the grace I bring/ we raised by queens that’s why we made like kings/ raw like thunder when I make light sing/ how can I not be a God when I make lightning// that’s how great minds think// that’s why they trying to hate my skin/ never imagine all the hate I’ve seen / as soon as you see me now in the state I am in// they’ll break my dreams// I’m so black I swear I hate white things// the shit I spit penetrates like / flow similar to how a great white swims/ this is the cakes icing/ ng’phum’eKasi don’t floss/ I take nice things/ you can hear It between the bassline strings/ the godliness runs in the rare rhyme skeems//

That's how great minds think, ayo ayo x 15

Chorus: The black man is God x 4

Poetry verse (Tony): What do you mean you don't see my Godliness? When my skin covers the area of where God ends and God Begins/planet earth's first populant, carry my ancestors with me, they Uber pool in my consciousness/I'm from this continent/Where black is beautiful, ain't it obvious? (I said) Where black is beautiful, ain't it obvious? (I said) Where black is beautiful, ain't it obvious!?

Chorus: The black man is God x4

Poetry verse (Tony): Earth wind water fire, all shades of the spectrum my entire existence inspired by silent space/(I said) my home's in the stars, I'm tryna trace/back to a time where blackness wasn't just a sign of race/Where culture was a place when spirituality and science mate//

Chorus: The black man is God x 4

Poetry verse (Tony): From Kemet to Timbuktu, down to Mapungubwe/I represent all that is black from a Tuesday to a Tuesday to a Tuesday to a Tuesday to a Tuessssssssday.

Black in my skin, black in my speaking. As black as a desert evening/spend my evenings, dancing with the moon mother/my days mapped out on Adam's Calendar ngsahamb umhlaba, skin speaking the language of the universe, skin speaking the language of the universe. So remember a time before your human birth/coz what is God was you at first, what is God was you at first, what is God was you at first.

Chorus: The black man is God x 4
(Beat changes pace)
Verse (Darkie):
ng'umuntu omnyana ngiyazazi/ khohlwa esxukwini sa bo ngamula
angifakazi /ng’shintsha ubuso ngathi ngobona igazi lalabafazi//ng’vele nkwhwaze
ugazi / asenze once s’vele sibasacaze/ s’cove inyuku sishintshe/ s’chele sibamangaze/sbheme sibakhathaze/ sibe sihlenka sibahlakaze / ungabi ne stress /umagistrate uyamokoleka / ungazikhathazi and even worse lonke I docket liya deletheka abantu maw’bazi / sho ! seng’ngal’kguzula ngama gama/ le beat/ ngiyagula ngathi ngozula nginama gama / ng’hlula abanamanga / maseng’hamba / ndlula bangamanga / na ley’Febe zinjeng’Bhede akudlulwa kungalalwanga / ngazi ezinye izinja rximbi/ ezifunda kungabhalwanga / izinja eziqala zitshontsha I idlul’inga khalanga / awusuli ungabambanga / jozi awulikhulumi ungalihambanga / ntwana cabanga indlu yomlungu awuyiphuli ungal’hambanga / s’khula singa jabulanga/ bo ngeke ukhule unga ganganga/ ngkfana nokuthi makushuba angeke uphumi\e ungajampanga / ukuthi I kaar ayinaskhiya/iduma singfakwanga / uyazi umuntu omnyama akajabuli kungalhalwanga

Chorus: The black man is God x 4

So its peace to the gods of the earth, peace to the gods on the earth (x14)

Ay the black man…
The black man…
