Black Flowers

In the air we have a ball
From the darkness we have light
As a seed we become a plant
Through the weeds in a garden
We are black flowers

You started as a seed that was planted
Life on earth is what you've been granted
Now it's up to you to do what you need to continue
Life granted joy, the world, growing like a cultured pearl
Make the best of what you have and travel down the lighted path

Sunshine on her very first day
She used to cry but now she's feeling okay
So she started walking 'cause her legs got strong
Wherever she ended, she could never go wrong
Hard times they used to have
Her mother raised her without a dad
She was young but she's seen it all
They fought and struggled and now they stand tall

Black flowers shining bright
They're gonna make it through the night
Black flowers came so far
She'll never give up till she'll reach the top
Black flowers oh they're gonna make it
Black flowers shining, shining bright

Fun times when she started school
She did her work and she played by the rules
But the teacher never showed them right
Their class was black but he taught them white
Sometimes she would get upset
She had straight A's but she got no respect
Now she's grown and things have changed
She's paid in full and made her own way

Black flowers shining bright
They're gonna make it through the night
Black flowers came so far
She'll never give up till she'll reach the top
Black flowers oh they're gonna make it
Black flowers shining, shining bright

Knowledge is what we all need
That's the key to succeed
Leave those substances alone
Those that are made and grown
Answers you'll find if you seek
Troubles and problems they get weak
Priorities they must be straight
Bloom black flowers control your fate

She said "I'll never, I'll never, I'll never gonna stop until I'll make it"
She said "I'll never, I'll never, I'll never gonna stop until I'll make it" yeah yeah

Black flowers shining bright
They're gonna make it through the night
Black flowers came so far
She'll never give up till she'll reach the top
Black flowers shining bright
They're gonna make it through the night
Black flowers came so far
She'll never give up till she'll reach the top

Black flowers she ain't never giving up ever, never yeah
Black flowers going to keep on shining, yeah, yeah
Black flowers going to keep on shining, never giving up
Black flowers going to keep on shining, yes they will
Well ain't never giving up ever, never yeah
Going to keep on shining, yeah, yeah
