Black Happiness [English translation]

My skin was dark from my past

People used to point at me

Even at my mom Even at my dad who was black, and in the army

People whisper behind my back

Said this and said that

I always had tears in my eyes

Although I was young

I saw my mother's sadness

Everything

seemed like it was my fault

Because of my guilt

I washed my face everytime during the day

With my tears I melt the white soap

I always hated my dark skin

why O why

Does the world judge me

When I hate the world

I close my eyes

I put my soul into the music my father gave me

I feel the volume

And fly higher and higher

Far away

la musique

When I hate the world

Music soothes me

you gotta hold on

and love yourself

When I hate the world

Music raises me up

so you gotta be strong

you gotta hold on

and love yourself

Time passed and I was thirteen

My skin was dark brown

Music doesn't judge color

They give me light

I lead my music

We lean on eachother

I don't feel lonely

Then one day

I was given a chance

I held on to my microphone

And suddenly I was on stage

I say goodbye to music and ask it to come back

Then I became nineteen

I have to lie

I put white makeup over my face

They told me to wear a mask

They said my mom's race was okay

But not my dad's

Every year my age was nineteen

During times when time stopped

I felt like I was in jail

And I leaned on myself

I spent endless, painful days

I ignored their warnings

And because I missed music

I tried to escape

But no, I got caught

I prayed all night

And now I'm free

When I hate the world

Music soothes me

you gotta hold on

and love yourself

When I hate the world

Music raises me up

so you gotta be strong

you gotta hold on

and love yourself

my sweet little girl tasha,

i guess i can give you a little

skit on life i guess

talk about the good times and the bad times

you gotta be able to

blend both of those in your life you have to know,

and you have to believe with all you heart

that things will always get better.

so just keep your head up

keep your faith and be strong

never let nobody tell you that you can’t do it

because it can be done

When I hate the world

Music soothes me

you gotta hold on

and love yourself

When I hate the world

Music raises me up

so you gotta be strong

you gotta hold on

and love yourself

sometimes it’s hard to see

all the good things in your life

and I know it hurts sometimes

but you gotta be willing to try

sometimes it’s hard to see

all the good things in your life

but you gotta be strong

and you gotta hold on and love yourself
