Phenomenal women in


I am a phenomenal women. 

Thickness of the natural hair. 

Personality can't no one compare. 

Coke bottle shape I'm thick. 

Strong as could be like a brick. 

Why, because I am a phenomenal women. 

Eyes laid on my beauty. 

Dark skin I'm a cutie. 

Praying to the man above. 

Trying to find real love. 

Beauty of my child. 

With an imagination that goes wild. 

Tears of gold 

Being in this world so cold. 

Finding the path with light 

But two wrongs don't make a right.

Why, because I am a phenomenal women. 

Sit in the corner thinking out loud

Always tell me daughter make me proud. 

Asking God to forgive me

Because this ain't the place to be. 

Always keep my eyes on the prize 

Instead of what I fantasize.

Now of days all you hear about is twerk 

But what about our education and all our work. 

Even though Im always gone 

It's hard to raise a child on my own. 

It's hard when you can't express how you feel 

Because some people can't even deal. 

Why, because I am a phenomenal woman.

Bills always over flowing that I have to pay 

But at the end of the day i going to make away. 

We might not be able to open the door 

But beautiful black women you can't ignore. 

Making a baby at a young age is one thing 

Who cares, putting your baby first that's my everything.

The Lord done blessed me in so many ways. 

The pain the suffer the struggles it all pays. 

At the end of the day I could say I made it 

Through all the tears headaches and hearts being spit. 

Why, because I'm a phenomenal women phenomenally.
