Beautiful Children ft. Amy Davis & B.B.C. Lyrics

In comes a musical thing called, beautiful black children, Darq alongside Amy

And when it seem like things not goin' right, no fuss, no fight

Cause everything gonna be alright, everything gonna be alright

Behind these eyes see my fair share of damage,

Day cares and nightmares, dreams of living lavish

We live it cause we have to everyday try to salvage, memories of laughter, surviving through the sadness

As children we play together, got good grades together, ties on these streets, them bonds you couldn't sever

Rain, shine, any weather, them birds of a feather, we're taught a little different, parents just raised better

We are the voices that'll bring about change, and who'd have thought our lessons would set the world stage

When shooting for the stars, falling short out a range, use your gift as your fire, let your trail blaze

And when the right way takes you the long way, I know it's wrong but the wrong ain't the only way

So through the curves and turns, remember what I say, it always gets brighter, even on the darkest day

Everything's gonna be alright, and when you close them eyes tonight

Rest well, cause you in my sights

I know it's hard in the dark to find your light

Up the hill we gon' make it,

Promise to you we gon' change it

All the beautiful children,

Living life on your way just to find yourself

We were some beautiful children running wild as some youth,

I bear it all in his boots, been none less than the truth

Before the hopeless weed days and nights of dust and absolute,

We were good kids decked out in your Sunday suit

Coming home from morning service, time to change your clothes, before I can go out with Raymond, play with our G.I. Joes

Hit the laundry mat, penny cookies and dollar hoagies,

Mr. Fletcher letting Davis send kids to purchase stogies

We live here free, but we always stuck to the rules, it's the reason I'm still living out here paying dues

Putting it down for BBC, E&T, TNC, Schlesinger, ain't just a rapper but also a messenger

Letting the youngins know, it ain't all about dough,

It's about living life, going through dark trying to find light

Stevie Wonder even though I'm not needed for sight,

So shine bright despite all the hardships and plight

Everything's gonna be alright, and when you close them eyes tonight

Rest well, cause you in my sights

I know it's hard in the dark to find your light

Up the hill we gon' make it,

Promise to you we gon' change it

All the beautiful children,

Living life on your way just to find yourself

I see the youth with the future is, I challenge to inspire any group of kids

Where you come from, no matter what you go through, don't ever wait for no one

Learn the weather that storm, they show the past, it's as they come and think before you make a move

Slow your motions, and always consider that path that's not chosen

Gotta move with your heart, and not worry about what they think

You learn that your best attribute is your instincts

Give thanks for lessons, and the lessons that were taught to you

And use it as a tool, represent the ones that fought for you

Deepest thing I ever wrote, it's something I often do

Live life to the fullest, you can end up in a coffin too

Hug your wife, grab your kids, tell them take a walk with you

Take a couple days off, no one is the boss of you

State of mind I know, life is epic and a saga too

I'm doing what I gotta do, there might be some drama soon

Everything's gonna be alright, and when you close them eyes tonight

Rest well, cause you in my sights

I know it's hard in the dark to find your light

Up the hill we gon' make it,

Promise to you we gon' change it

All the beautiful children,

Living life on your way just to find yourself

Rest in peace,

To my angel Amy Davis,

And my big bro Tech Slash

We make promises, and the family here today, and we gon' see those out

Darqness,

BBC,

One love
