#NoFilter


Who am I, without a filter?

A beautiful, black girl.

I'm young and intelligent

Which you can finally see,

Me for the REAL ME

and not through something you mayy appear to see.

 

Without this filter you will finally know

What I have to give off to finally show

Myself, my spririt, my pride and my joy

Not just some girl who's living scared and alone.

 

Now I can finally be me

To show off my independence and creativity

A beautiful, strong, brave young girl

Ready to finally show herself off to this world

I can now be me, with #NoFilter
