From the Eyes of Brown

Am i just a kid trying to get a nut Or a kid who loves to eat candy with my friends until i'm sick in the gut A black up north girl addicted to the sunshine Believing the world is mine I can walk down the street with my head held high Everybody can see why Skin brown and beautiful These feeling are real and unconditional Don't let no one hold you back A race of fly and smart people is a fact I'm so proud of my people we come so far To all my fellow brothers and sisters be proud of who you are
