G
Against the canvas of the night
Appears a curious celestial
phenomena
Called Black Star, but what is it?
Black people unite and let's all get down

to have what? We got
to have that love
Verse 3
G
What is the Black Star?

Gm
Is it the cat with the black shades,
Is it shining from very far, to where you are?
It is commonplace and different
Intimate and distant
Verse 4
Fresher than an infant
G
Black, my family thick,
like they're striped molasses
Star, on the rise,
in the eyes of the masses
Black is the color of my
true love's hair
Verse 5
Star's are bright, shining, hot balls of air
G
Black like my baby girl's stare
Black like the veil that the
muslimina wear
Black like the planet that they fear,
why they scared?
Black like the slave ship
that later brought us here
Black like the cheeks that are
roadways for tears
That leave black faces well
traveled with years
Black like assassin cross hairs
Blacker than my granddaddy
armchair
He never really got no time
to chill there
Cause this life is warfare, warfare
Verse 6
G
Deep on the front lines,
and blacks is all there
Black like the perception of who,
on welfare
Black like faces at the bottom
of the well
I've been there before
To bring the light and heat
it up like "la cocina"
Make without imagine happen but
maybe I'm just a dreamer
I love rockin' tracks like John
Coltrane love Naema
Verse 7
G
Like the student love the teacher
Like the prophet love Khadeja
Like I love my baby features
Like the creator love all creatures
Verse 8
G
Who acknowledge truth and peace seekers We
on point like heat seekers
Targeting the black marketing strategists
Run up on 'em with the heaters
A
Everybody following with no leaders
Dm
Gm
Feeling like we killing ourselves
G
Because I know they can't defeat us
Am
It don't stop 'til we complete this,
There's so much to life when you
just stay Black and God
Verse 9
G
Am
Blacker than the nighttime sky
of BedStuy in July
G
Blacker than the seed in
the blackberry pie
Gm
Bb
G
Blacker than the middle of my eye
Black like feh- lah man cry
Some man wan ask "Who am I?"
I simply reply, "The U- N- I,
V- E- R- S- A- L Magnetic"
Am
Work to respect the angelic,
And tell it 'til the valley's
enveloped
You're full of big chat but
you nah know me
I'm dark like the side of the moon
you don't see
Am
When the moon shine newly
Verse 10
G
You know who else is a Black
Star? (Who?) Me
You know who else is a Black
Star? (Who?) Me
You know who else is a Black Star,
who we? (And we)

Be shining and shining,
when we rhyming and rhyming
G
We be shining and shining,
when we rhyming and rhyming
Verse 11

Now everybody hop on the one,
the sounds of the two
It's the third eye vision,
five side dimension
The 8th Light,
Am
is gonna shine bright tonight
G
It's the third eye vision,
five side dimension
Verse 12
Go from the dark
The other way is ass- backwards
It's absurd
Make you want to crow
like a blackbird
That's right
Dm
You living from your first day to
Sometimes you show your ass like
Lint on your clothes
When you froze in
Dead that
G
Before you get your head wrapped
Like Badu
We see through your voodoo
Gm
Bb
Just like Eve's Bayou,
Dm
you dealing with that black magic
Gm
G
Try to civilize you
Not walk on by you
Like civil- (lies do get
you black listed) it'll
Be unlucky for you like a black cat
A panther
Revolution is the answer
That's what we need
Greed plague my people like the cancer
True indeed
Verse 13
G
Now black people unite,
and let's all get down
Now everybody hop on the one,
the sounds of the two
Am
It's the third eye vision,
five side dimension
is gonna shine bright tonight
Everybody hop on the one,
the sounds of the two
It's the third eye vision,
five side dimension
is gonna shine bright tonight
