Lyrics for Pride II

Dark black night White men rage They dream of killing me (You gotta protect yourself) Me (You gotta protect yourself) Gotta learn to protect yourself (Learn to protect yourself) Did you think it'd last forever? (Life's all a part) Did you think it'd last forever? (Life's all a part) Don't Don't Don't Don't be mad Be bitter my friend Last forever Forever Haven't you flown Haven't you flown All my gladness Haven't you flown Haven't you been In this gladness
