black
I was told you are black
The color of those who lack.
Look how ugly you look
Black as a crow in a book
No matter how hard you bath
You come out the same in the aftermath
You come from a black continent
No wonder why you are persistent
Not only that you, you seem content
Content with being poor which is relevant
Very relavant to the color of your skin.
The color of my skin is not a sin
This is the color of those who win
The color of greatness you haven't seen
The color of resilence and vigour
The color of the man on the pyramids
The color of the fathers of civilisation.
I am black as charcoal not as a crow
And I lack succour but stand first in the roll
I am content because I am of the mother continent
Unlike you fake humans who are a contigent to my continent.
