Step Into The Projects Lyrics

Step Into The Projects lyrics

She's darker than a child's deepest sleep

And into his mind she creeps


In this world of lies and confusion

She's the only thing not clouded
by illusions 

The pain of everyday life is hidden by the blackness of our
skin

He searches to find peace within

He finds love in the blackness of
her skin 



Back to the ghetto 

Serenaded by the violence outside the
window

Project aristocrats gather they realize 

That our hearts and
minds are shackled by the lies 

But he finds peace when he looks into her
eyes 

And see her blackness is fine

The blackness of her skin the
blackness of her mind 



Straight from the womb 

Right smack dab in
the middle of¡­

Poverty insecurity no one to save me

The young black
man lays his head on her young black thighs

So that the child in her womb
can hear the tears 

That the black man cries 

Soon come on a wave of
positivity the big swinger,

Swingin'like a jazz singer travelin', movin',
movin', 

Steppin'in my three-quarter shell-toes, 

Groovin'love to hear
the brothers signify sisters with their head held high 

Summertime, the
livin'is easy dreaming of seas of dark tranquility 

On the project train
full speed on the project train heading for my love that's sweet like
