The Last Poets - Black Wish lyrics

Black day is coming Black day is here I am a black wish I am the thought of all things Thinking or wishing for something to come true I am the wish in the wishbone That white people break for good luck And the next day one of them falls and breaks their neck I am the wish that makes Walt Disney Wish upon a star A star shining like the light of truth In the darkest night Wish upon my star, Walt Disney For I am truth I am the wish That makes the white f*ggot wish That the [?] he's eating for lunch will follow him home for dinner I am the wish That makes the [?] old lady wish She had the body of Cleopatra The voice of Billie Holiday The s**iness of [?] And the [?] of [?] Lincoln For then she would be truly beautiful And her hairdresser would have to wish if she knew for sure I am the wish that makes George Wallace wish He can make love to Lola [?] I am the wish that makes all n******gs and negroes Wish for alligator shoes, white thighs, El Dorados And wish that they didn't run out of wishes I am the wish that makes Nina Simone Wish she knew how it felt to be free I am the wish all black people are wishing for I am the wish of freedom Yes, I am the wish of black freedom And I wish, and I wish, and I wish And I wish I know, and I know I wish And I wish I know, and I know I wish And I wish and I know and I know and I know That that wish will come true
