Angry Black

Yes, am an angry black whose heart  is frozen with anger
No dazzling star under the blue blanket of sky
Doesn't  have a meaning, purpose and direction 
Endless  questions that never sum up to the answer 
I need to know about racism 
Being born in Africa is the most beautiful  thing 
To have ever happened  in my lifetime 
When the scientists say you got treatment  for transformation 
Who the he'll said I wanna white? 
Cant imagine giving birth to little blacks
Who will wonder where the hell did we come from 
Am a beautiful  charming black girl
Some blacks are taken to middle east 
And get overworked like slaves in colonial times
And get deported  back paralyzed 
When will this ignorance  of taking advantage  stop?

My mind incorporates well with movement calculation 
When it comes to create a formula 
Think the way you think and reason same as you do
My skin colour shouldn't  be the reason
I don't need to tan nor to roast myself  
In the sun so as to get some skin colour
Black is gold, black is beauty, black is my secret
Am a unique African who legendary has a mesmerizing character 
won't allow monoric way of prioritizing issues
When it comes to Africa my motherland
Blacks ain't thugs,ghettos or civic leaders of welfare stereotypes 
All blacks should rise up and destroy  this 
Sordid stem of segregation, mistreatment and historic colony.

Power to you lady! Black is beautiful. A very powerful write. I have experienced racism, so i know. Some people are just like that. We have to embrace what we have and share with those that love it. Definitely a 7
