E Jay Chandler - Black Hero (feat. Tecoby Hines)

I wanna be a hero
I gotta be a hero
A black super hero
A black super hero
I wanna be a hero(Bruce Wayne ain't got nothing on me)
I gotta be a hero(Clark Kent ain't got nothing on me)
A black super hero(Berry Allen got nothing on me)
A black super hero(None of y'all got nothing on me)
Shout out to the black father look regardless we still here
They try to disregard us but we thrivin loving our kids
Let me say this again we still here let's make a toast, cheers
Black hero's black fathers like Jefferson Pierce(We way to real)
And it's still blows my mind
I got boys I go to war for every day I try
To be a father like the one I had then I realized
That I wanna be better, I gotta do better, look they deserve better
Pops was no Cliff Huxtable but provided for the family
At times dysfunctional, I still learned from his humanity
And I'm gonna fumble I know that I will, I already did
Pops was no where near perfect he did what he could for all of his kids and now
Man I got my own
And it feels good to see em all run to me when I get home
To see 3 generations is crazy whenever we take a photo
All I know is when I look in their face man I wanna be a
I wanna be a hero
I gotta be a hero
A black super hero
A black super hero
I wanna be a hero(Bruce Wayne ain't got nothing on me)
I gotta be a hero(Clark Kent ain't got nothing on me)
A black super hero(Berry Allen got nothing on me)
A black super hero(None of y'all got nothing on me)
I took to long to realize I ain't really need a cape
Broken pieces in my person, needed more than tape
Overthinking my position, falling short was overweight
A aspiration for some dedication
Reachin a new elevation changing lives of my people
While working hard to paint a picture prayerfully stare at easel
Grabbin wisdom from my friends that's been trenches In they mental
Told me to keep it simple, complication gone come
Mistakes are just some lessons that's gone multiply the sums
You his bright spot, you his sun
Know that you will need to play your role and write your script
The lies get old,
Yea the lies get old we way to present
Don't let them kills us and we alive
I just realized it's all real lies
Define my pops by his mistakes it's beautiful time to see that being dad holds weight
Shout out to Jimmy Hines that's my hero
I wanna be a hero
A black super hero
I wanna be a hero(Bruce Wayne ain't got nothing on me)
A black super hero(Berry Allen got nothing on me)
