Well this time won't be like the last time it's a different kinda Blackman time
 Blackman of the positive kind, Blackman with a positive mind
 Blackman who is no longer blind, YO, YO, YO

 We are some of dem Blackman of that ancient breed

 We are some of dem Blackman who can be no longer decieved
 Mentally our minds have been freed

 We are some of dem kinda Blackman, WOH
 We are some of dem kinda Blackman, WOHYEH (2x)

 The Blackman inna the west never get a good press
 Negative stereotyping the media a project
 It's the crime or the sports or the music or the 
 What about the Black scholars and the Black intellects
 We not all like the ones upon your TV sets
 We don't call we woman [bad word] we call them princess
 We're seeking the knowledge we want to progress
 Have to get ourselves out of this mess yes, yes
 We are some of dem Blackman with we own mind
 We are some of dem Blackman who no eat no swine
 We are some of dem Blackman who's in touch with the nature divine
 African roots every time
 We are some of dem Blackman who is hard to beat
 We are some of dem Blackman that dem can't defeat
 We are some of dem Blackman the more you want fi lick we down and lick we down
 We bounce right back pon we feet

 We are some of dem kinda Blackman, WOH
 We are some of dem kinda Blackman, WOHYEH (2x)

 Something must be done to much Blackman inna jail and prison
 Too much Blackman inna institution
 Too much youth a get expel outa dem education
 Inna Babylon me say things gone wrong
 Well I and I can feel a revolution a come
 Cause we a get the knowledge we a get the wisdom
 The tide it a change and the table it a turn
 Say Babylon a time fi go dung, dung, dung

 We are some of dem Blackman who's we own boss
 We are some of dem Blackman who's no longer lost
 We are some of dem Blackman who have seen the mistakes of the past
 And we are correcting them fast 
 We are some of dem Blackman of that ancient breed
 We are some of dem Blackman who can write and read
 We are some of dem Blackman who can be no longer decieved
 Mentally our minds have been freed

 We are some of dem kinda Blackman, WOH
 We are some of dem kinda Blackman, WOHYEH (2x)
