As I am, I am me.
They look at me and instantly begin to judge me
They search my eyes for something but only find what they lack
Yes, I am proud that I am Black
Yes, I am proud that my skin glows in the sunlight and I even stand out at night
As dark as I am, I still shine...
As dark as I am, I still climb...
To the top, non stop because I am Blessed, I will not stress
God made me dark as a panther with teeth white as snow
He gave me passion and love straight from above and a divine mind to let it all show
No man intimidates me
No man is below me
We are the rainbows of life
An ombré of colors
We are the butterflies of the skies
So why do we fight? Why does it matter if I am black and you are white?
