Care for You Video (MV)

Care, yes I do
You know I care
You know I care

Uh, beautiful Black child, let's have a conversation
Let's skip the contemplation
Let's talk more about moderation and modern day shit
Let's learn black love, take it back by the basis
We ain't even gotta fake shit
Beautiful black women, help me to make you stronger
Help me to make me stronger
Help though it takes me as long as clock on the wall to get my act right and me call her
Help me to make you better, help me I'll take you farther
All these insecurities play on your mind currently
Dealt with pain durably
And here I come inside of the bathroom
Makin' it worse, blamin' you for the pain hurtin' me
We need God urgently
Lately I've workin' your feelings while on my workin' spree
Lately I've been hurtin' your feelings meanwhile it's hurtin' me
Maybe I've been all in my feelings, tryna get back to you
Lately I've been mindin' my bidness, tryna get back at you
Help me more to understand
It's traumas in my past that make me talk loud and lash at you
Sorry for the times my attitude mix with the status too
We've been smokin' weed and gettin' drunk, and mixin' batter too
F*ck all that status, I'm tryna get back the bag with you
Beautiful Black mothers, you raised so many of us
They built abortion clinics by your house to take you from us
Beautiful Black fathers, I know your back against the wall
You goin' hard but don't you let these people take you from us
We thuggin' hard, niggas die in the summer
Who gon' supply for our sons?
Who gon' supply for our daughters?
We can't leave it to section eight to provide like a father
We can't leave our kids with these people decidin' the order
Last time I checked nigga, we was decidin' the culture
Last time I checked nigga, that's what decided the order
Last time I checked nigga, we was controllin' the trend
Same one that got white kids Tik-Tokin' and woah'ing again
People been stealin' from us in blind sight
White people payin' Black blogs to damage us and self-damage us on online sites
ShadeRoom, y'all ain't hidin', twenty million followers
So Black folk, you gotta be more positive
Even though you're investors are white guys named Bryce Robins
Is it worth exploitin' the Black culture for the measly a hunnid thousand dollars?
Look Angelica, it ain't worth it
You a Black queen that push your scene above the surface
And we love you for that active drive and purpose
But it's time you take that hunnid thou' reverse it
Work it back into our communities, rehabilitate the unity
Young Black women shinin', don't be confused by my lines
Before you they up and tryna take 'em and reconfuse as some hatred, listen

My Black child I'm sayin' this 'cause I love you
But love ain't come with the lessons that's gon' leave life all above you
The police gon' hate up on you, the government's never for you
But you can rise all above it, as long as you keep your lovin'
I say this just 'cause I care

And I care for you, for you
And I'm there for you, I'm there for you
And I care for you, for you
And I'm there for you, I'm there for you

I was never good at school but smart enough to see the signs
Behind the f*ckery and lies of the system and how they try
The grand plan is to separate us, tear us down, conquer divide
The main was to have a Black man silenced
And though of course we used our voice to override it
They influenced us by usin' niggas our color to talk 'bout drugs and violence inside 'em
They made Black women talk more sex and less what they mind is
80's all the the 90's, like who the f*ck is behind this?
You awake to remind us, I equate to remind you
Business they told you mind you, listen you ain't find your
Self inside of this war, the devil dive in your door
My Black, skinned, Christians, know the devil pry at your more
My beautiful Black daughters, the ones who lash out in class
Out of anger, that anger the fact they had no f*ckin' fathers
Or the ones they had, would touch their daughters
We never knew 'cause they was quiet in school
No one supports so many affection only came from f*ck niggas that love in portions
Or some older cats that never made love to f*ck, they forced it
But it's the way that love was taught to you, shawty
Nobody taught it, you gotta know that ain't your fault
You tryna tear your mind comparin' yourself to someone who's brought up in family genes
That means mother, father is present on family tree
That mean you don't take all the blame 'cause they wasn't there
That just means you a Black queen, who's life wasn't fair
But God give unfair to the favorites
None heirs to the hatred
Tests that bring you faith when it's unclear what the fate is
People talk 'bout your untamed hair, hey it's my favorite
Dark skinned and light skinned, love you for what your shade is, it's Black
Unapologetic and Afrocentric
With enough curve and ass, for me to not have to mention all of my apprehension
With natural hair, you're fierce, they told you had to have extensions
That was cappin' past the fiction
Shawty you a whole ninth inning, championship
When you battin' that shit'll past the fences
You know I'm past attentive, let's make some last decisions

My Black child I'm sayin' this 'cause I love you
But love ain't come with the lessons that's gon' leave life all above you
The police gon' hate up on you, the government's never for you
But you can rise all above it, as long as you keep your lovin'
I say this just 'cause I care

And I care for you, for you
And I'm there for you, I'm there for you
And I care for you, for you
And I'm there for you, I'm there for you
