Black, black, black,
Black, black, black,

Jesus is the new black,
Jesus is the new black,
Jesus is the new black,

I grew up in New York City,
Since I was born on Broadway, baby.
Moved downtown when I was just 19,
To start a new life on the New York scene.

There's no way I could be stopped,
Was taking my best shot,
I had better plan.

There's no way I could be stopped,
Was coming for your spot,
I met better men.

Amen, on the runway,
Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.
Amen, on the runway,
Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.

Dancing in my relevation,
Underground pop civilization.
Concrete poetry to feed my mind
Old symbolism was left behind.

There's no way I could be stopped,
Was taking my best shot,
I had better plan.

There's no way I could be stopped,
Was coming for your spot,
I met better men.

Amen, on the runway,
Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.
Amen, on the runway,
Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.

Put it on,
Amen Fashion.
Celebrate,
Ooh ooh,
A new compassion.
Put it on,
Amen Fashion.
Celebrate,
Ooh ooh,
Style your passion.

Put it on,
Amen Fashion.
Celebrate,
Ooh Ooh,
A new compassion.
Put it on,
Amen Fashion.
Celebrate,
Ooh ooh,
Wear out your vision.

Black Jesus, Black Jesus, Black Jesus
Jesus is the new black, ow.

Amen, on the runway,
Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.
Amen, on the runway,
Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.

Amen, on the runway,
Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.

Dressed in his best.
Amen fashion, on the runway,
Work it Black Jesus.
