Black Pearl lyrics

(Intro)

Black Pearl, Precious little girl

Let me lift you up where you belong



(Verse 1)

Comin at`cha, can you feel what I`m feelin`

Some soul sister need some natural healing

Gifted but shifted, so come follow me

Cause I`ma take you on a sister to sister journey

Run to get mine, better get `fore they grab it

Like cold pepsi-cola, gotta say I gots-ta have it

Stayin back too long, when you really got it goin` on

It ain`t nothing wrong with being strong, but you don`t hear me though



(Chorus)

Black Pearl, Precious little girl

Let me lift you up where you belong

Black Pearl, Precious little girl

You`ve been in the background much too long



(Verse 2)

Now, all my sisters with the bangles, tryin` on earings

Tryin shopping with the Fendi`s and ain`t got a penny

High school drop-out, only sixteen like she don`t know no better

Don`t think it`s a crime, cause nobody`s there to tell her

Life is scarce, if you don`t take a chance you`re losin honey

The streets`ll be the only place you make your money

Let`s get it together, that`s the price you have to pay

And if you live for the streets you`ll see a better day

One nation, under the groove, we got it open

If we`d just learn to stick together, you know what I mean?

Stop killin` each other, learn to love each other

For the sake of a mother and a brother

Run to get mine, better get `fore they grab it

Like cold pepsi-cola, gotta say I gots-ta have it

Stayin back too long, when you really got it goin` on

It ain`t nothing wrong with being strong, but you don`t hear me though



(Chorus)



(Verse 3)

What I`m kickin ain`t no joke, you better listen up

Black black pressure, and pretty black pearl

Yeah, I done been around the world and it`s still all the same

Everybody`s still got a little shame in they game

Scared to admit, well here`s something you can lean on

Hum the chorus to this song...

It`s a lot of strings attched don`t let him play you like a buppy

You gotta stay above it or your just like the rest of `em

Following some dry-ass dream, scared to move on and be more than you friends

Self-motivation, for your self-motivate set the two

Black Pearl`s dedicated from Yo to you

Run to get mine, better get `fore they grab it

Like cold pepsi-cola, gotta say I gots-ta have it

Stayin back too long, when you really got it goin` on

Now tell me what`s wrong with being strong



(Chorus till fade...)
