Ebony

Today as always I'm proud of my ebony skin my brown eyes my sincere attributes
I can connect with myself self love that goes with the rest I can feel complete
when my eyes meet parts of the earth parts of others who are reaching to touch

I know I'm proud to be myself it's no effort to enjoy the true happiness at it's best
I love  to share and grow while I travel along this journey I now feel complete I am
proud of my heritage our people we all are apart of this world we all need to be proud

of who and, what we are never looking back never letting go of what has just begun
a new day always living life with the unspoken word of peace and, serenity what is 
most beautiful is this world for you and me.
