Red light
Black sky
So fly
Good night
To’ pa’ los míos si yo brillo también brillarán
Vestido fendi con mi baby ya se me dará
Red light
Black sky
So fly
Good night
To’ pa’ los míos si yo brillo también brillarán
Vestido fendi con mi baby ya se me dará
Baby yo se que piensas en mi
Todas las noches antes de dormir
Juro que algún día si te haré feliz
También que seré millo antes de morir
Gasto money y no pierdo mi time
En los días oscuros yo me siento fine
Días grises dan tranquilidad
Ellos gritan listen y no dicen Na
Gente se pregunta cómo Corone
Yo no estoy de ahora tampoco de ayer
Hace 2 o 3 años que estoy en el game
Escribiendo barras también batallé
Hapiness
Un cheque al mes
Por mi Gang
Lo hago por mi gang
Shot out pa’ mis hommies
Los global Race
Solo tengo hermanos
Ya no tengo friends
(Yeah, yeah)
Ahora nada es for free
Brilla en el cuello mi blin blin
Global race aka dream team
Si mis yeezys tan clean clean
Coróname como el King
Como yo no hay por aquí
With my bitch
Gucci flip flops
To’ lo que dicen de mi fuck
El que sabe sabe
Siempre he sido el mismo
Nunca he perdido mi ritmo
With my bitch
Gucci flip flops
To lo que dicen de mi fuck
El que sabe sabe
Siempre he sido el mismo
Siempre he sido el mismo
Red light
Black sky
So fly
Good night
To’ pa’ los míos si yo brillo también brillarán
Vestido de fendi con mi baby ya se me dará
Red light
Black sky
So fly
Good night




To’ pa’ los míos si yo brillo también brillarán
Vestido fendi con mi baby ya se me dará

Overall Meaning

"Black" by White is a song about the rapper's journey towards success and stardom despite the obstacles he's faced along the way. The first verse begins with the lines "Red light, black sky, so fly, good night" which can be interpreted as him saying goodbye to the struggles he's faced in the past and stepping into a new phase of his life. He then goes on to say "To' pa' los míos si yo brillo también brillarán, vestido fendi con mi baby ya se me dará" which translates to "For all of mine, if I shine, they will shine too, in a Fendi dress with my baby, it will come to me." This implies his desire to succeed not only for himself but also for his loved ones.


The second verse is more personal and is directed towards a significant other. He expresses his belief that he will eventually make her happy and that he will become successful before he passes away. He also mentions how he spends his money carefully and doesn't waste time, and how he feels fine even on gloomy days. He then speaks on his rise to fame and how people wonder how he did it, but he's been in the game for a while and has honed his skills through years of writing and battling. He also makes references to his gang and acknowledges his close-knit group of friends.


Throughout the song, White also mentions his designer clothing and expensive accessories, such as his Fendi dress and bling necklace, but emphasizes that he is the same person he's always been despite his success. The chorus repeats the lines from the beginning of the song, reminding the listener that he's doing it all for his loved ones and that he believes in his ability to succeed.

Love that he did not go for "a person who does things that are not stereotypically depicted as part of black culture" and went for "a person who is entitled AF." Black Karens and Black Chads. Truth.

Lisa M Sawyer

NOW I would like to know and see his responsive answer of his crossing those lines, because he’s tiptoeing across some very thin ice 🧊 of The RITE Indigenous American Indian/ Native American Indian to call him outright to Whom he think he want an answer.
