Black Girl


Black girl black girl

Your skin so dark

Your skin so light

Your skin so brown

Some have skins of changing colors

No matter what still beautiful

We are so different in the greatest of ways

Black girl black girl

You're a painting on the wall of the world

When God created you

He put more than enough on your skin

More than enough to bless the world 

Black girl black girl

If no one loves you

Your fellow black girl will
