If all I was was black

Looking at you, you might look past



All the love I give (got love to give)

I've got natural gifts (got natural gifts)

Got perspective (got perspective)

Might make your shift (the way you look at it)



I've got love

Got love



If all I did was cry

If all that feeling got left behind



I'd worry about you (what's in your mind)

I'd never live my life (be wasting my time)

Oh, I won't be afraid (I won't be afraid)

If that's how you wanna stay (how you wanna stay)



I've got the love

Got love



If all I was was black

Don't you wanna know me more than that?



All the love I give (got love to give)

Got natural gifts (got natural gifts)

I've got perspective (got perspective)

Might make your shift (the way you look at it)



I've got the love, love

Got love



And it's time for more to love, mmm

Oh, it's time, it's time, for more love



All the love I give (got love to give)

I've got natural gifts (got natural gifts)

I've got perspective (got perspective)

Just might make your shift (the way you look at it)



I've got love, love

I've got love

And it's time for more to love
