*** Requiem For A Black Soul ***

Bad Nina looking for a fight
The words so deep and southern fried
But you paid the price
For all those civil rights
Goddamn
You were the sacrifice
A fire burning bright
Goddamn

Play a requiem for a black soul
Play a requiem for a black black soul

Little girl blue looked up to you
Broke my every bone
Were you scared of dying
There is no denying
Goddamn
Though my heart is breaking
A dark angel's waiting
Goddamn

Play a requiem for a black soul
Play a requiem for a black black soul

Spread your wings sweet butterfly
You know it's time to say goodbye
Where there was tragedy
You brought your majesty
Goddamn
You spoke for all of us
On the back seat of the bus
Goddamn

Play a requiem for a black soul
Play a requiem for a black black soul
Play a requiem for a black soul
Play a requiem, a sacred hymn, for a black black soul
