Like the student love the teacher
 Like the prophet love Khadeja
 Like I love my baby features
 Like the creator love all creatures


 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 shinin and shinin, when we rhymin and rhymin

 You know the light
 Go from the dark
 The other way is ass-backwards
 It's absurd
 Make you wanna crow like a blackbird
 That's right
 You livin from your first day to your last night
 Sometimes you show your ass like
 Lint on your clothes
 When you froze in
 THE BLACK LIGHT
 Dead that
 Before you get your head wrapped
 Like Badu
 We see through your voodoo
 Just like Eve's Bayou, you dealin with that black magic
 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
