"Ra, El Sol Negro"

. #raelsolnegro #sexyslimthegoddess 🎵 Roots Don’t Lie (Ra El Sol Negro) (by Daeshanae Davis Dupree / Sexyslim Thegoddess) [Intro – Spoken / Ad-libs] (Yeah... uh-huh...) We all came from the same sun, same fire... But some forgot the truth. (Mmm-hmm.) Dr. King had a dream… not just for one color, but for all of us. (Let’s go!) [Verse 1 – English] Why you hate the side that made you shine? (Uh!) Black blood built the pyramids in time. (Yeah!) Before the borders, before the lines, We were the rhythm, the gold, the mind. (Facts!) They eat off us, take what’s ours, (Uh!) From our music to our power. (Yeah yeah!) MLK said let freedom ring, but they turned his dream into bling. (Say that!) [Chorus – English + Spanish mix] Roots don’t lie (las raíces no mienten), (lah-rah-EE-sehs noh MYEN-ten) Look inside (mira bien, siente). (MEE-rah byehn SYEN-teh) We came from the sun, from the same old fire, Black, brown, gold—our souls climb higher. (Uh-huh, let’s go!) Roots don’t lie (las raíces no mienten), Stop the hate, love’s the only weapon. Before the storm, before the divide, We were one—can’t kill that vibe. (Never!) [Verse 2 – Español / Spanish verse with pronunciation] Nos roban la cultura, (nohs ROH-bahn lah kool-TOO-rah) pero somos la raíz. (PEH-roh SOH-mohs lah rah-EES) Desde África hasta Borinquen, (DEHS-deh AH-free-kah AH-stah boh-REEN-ken) la sangre negra aquí. (lah SAHN-greh NEH-grah ah-KEE) Hablan mal de su piel, (AH-blahn mahl deh soo PYEHL) pero aman nuestro swing. (PEH-roh AH-mahn NWES-troh swing) Dr. King tuvo un sueño, (DOCK-tor KING TOO-boon SWAY-nyo) y seguimos su ring. (ee seh-GEE-mohs soo REENG) (Ad-libs: “Sí! Uh! Libre!”) [Bridge – Spoken Word / English & Spanish mix] They love our sound, but fear our power. They wear our style, but steal our flowers. We built the world, stone by stone, and still they act like we alone. (Nah!) (Spanish) Pero mira, somos uno, (PEH-roh MEE-rah SOH-mohs OO-noh) negro, blanco, todo el mundo. (NEH-groh BLAHN-koh TOH-doh ehl MOON-doh) [Chorus – Final] Roots don’t lie (las raíces no mienten), Look inside (mira bien, siente). We came from the sun, from the same old fire, Black, brown, gold—our souls climb higher. Roots don’t lie (las raíces no mienten), Stop the hate, love’s the only weapon. Before the storm, before the divide, We were one—can’t kill that vibe. (Never! Never!) (Outro ad-libs: “Stand tall! Love one another! Dr. King saw the vision… we the dream, baby! Would you like me to:
