lyrics

Aye
Well alright
I just wanna' take time to formally invite
Every soul under the sound of my voice
To the cookout, the kickback with my comrade, Lady Bri
You ready

Black on black skin baby what's the crime
I only came for a piece of mind
Can we make love like it's '65
Before Coretta lost her King & brotha Malcolm died
I'm so sick of this world of hate
Where premature death seems to be my fate
My God come take us away
Send a sweet chariot for me and my baby

Glory glory halleluh
I can't lose when I'm with you
The truth that surely sets me free
Love so good that I can't leave

We can take a knee, we can clinch our fists
But I'd be a fool to protest ya' kiss
Come here sugar girl give me what ya' got
Let me cast my vote in yo' ballot box
I just wanna' Bobby Seal the deal withcu
Nat turnin' you on until ya' face is blue
We can Rosa Park in the back of the lot
Sojourn our truth until the cops come knock

Glory glory halleluh
I can't lose when I'm with you
The truth that surely sets me free
Love so good that I can't leave
Glory glory halleluh
I can't lose when I'm with you
The truth that surely sets me free
Love so good that I can't leave

We gotta fight the powers that be
Breakin' us up to get in between
The love we share is heaven-sent
Everlastin'
The Lord's intent
We gotta fight the powers that be
Breakin' us up to get in between
The love we share is heaven-sent
Everlastin'
The Lord's intent

Glory glory halleluh
I can't lose when I'm with you
The truth that surely sets me free
Love so good that I can't leave
Glory glory halleluh
I can't lose when I'm with you
The truth that surely sets me free
Love so good that I can't leave
