Rise

Black Woman

Dark Woman

African Woman

Rise

 

Mother

Daughter

Sister

Friend

Rise

 

The time has come to rise

This color issue in our society

Is becoming poison

We continue the negativity

instead of embracing the sisterly

 

Embrace the intelligence

embrace the beauty

Embrace the body

Embrace the spirit

Embrace you

 

Rise to be the vessel of character and integrity God has created you to be

Rise to be the nurture, encourager, lover God has created you to be

Rise to be the occasion of loving yourself, loving you, loving self
