We Are Darker Than Blu(e) Blu

[Intro: Blu & Curtis Mayfield]
We people
I'm talkin' to you (Who are darker then blue)
I'm talkin' to you (Blue)
I'm talkin' to you (Blue, blue)
I'm talkin' bout

[Verse 1: Blu]
It took people like Huey to move me
My life is like a movie reel, no films, feel me?
The real me is blacker than my African family tree
Blacker then the Black Panther party's army
On me, armed to the teeth with the beast
All ready to catch heat from a G, spark leaves
Lift up, outer space, blackface picture us that deep
Black is the bottom of the black sea
Black is the reason why I am free, I am me
A human being being more than all that I can be
Multiply more times, Most High majesty
Magic me John's son as black as can be
High yellow acapello afro actually
Nappy tree, lifted to the black above me
Buzz freeze for my niggas, trust me
This is for my niggas from the poorest to the richest that can be

[Chorus: Blu & Curtis Mayfield]
I'm talkin' 'bout (We people)
I'm talkin' to you (Who are darker then blue)
I'm talkin' to you (Blue)
I'm talkin' to you (Blue, blue)
I'm talkin' 'bout (We people, people)
I'm talkin' to you (Who are darker then blue)
I'm talkin' to you (Blue)
I'm talkin' to you (Blue, blue)
