back to black

going back to what you know.
trying something out, but realizing it wasn't for you, and going back to what you know. black has more of a lower connotation to it - versus going back to "white."
got into a relationship and changed aspects of the way you live and your life. got out of the relationship (exonerated yourself, more like it) and going back to your life (just the way YOU like it) = back to black.

going back to your ex, because that's what you know = back to black.

giving up staying straight, and giving in to your addiction = back to black.

back to black

no more faking the funk - accepting yourself for the way you are. not trying to change for the better for other people's eyes and perceptions. coming back from trying to change your life for someone else, to just being who you are. people may have a problem with the way you live your life, but that's ok, because you love yourself.

A phrase that primarily applies to black women but is also applying more and more to black men in America. Single black women having become disillusioned with being the breadwinner and homemaker of the family. In dating white men, black women have discovered that white men tend to be more financially stable, less likely to cheat, less likely to be abusive, and if there is a pregnancy are more likely to stick around and be a part of the child's life even if the relationship doesn't work out. All things that women want in a relationship.
Greg: Is it true that charice is getting married to a white guy?
Boosie: Yeah, white boys don't fuck around. You always see them with the hottest girls in the neighborhood.
Greg: Why Is she doing that?
Boosie: I asked her and she told me, Once you've had white, you never go back to black.
