Of Royal Blood

Of Royal Blood 

Do you know that you 
are of royal blood?

Can you feel it pulsing 
through your veins?

We don't come from any ordinary 
blood line.

We are of royal blood.

We have blood of African queens
and kings inside of us.

Blood that is rooted in 
every corner of the Motherland. 

This blood line doesn't make us
better than anyone else 

But it should make us want to 
do better 

Our ancestors sacrificed their 
lives to give us a chance to 
shine. 

So make sure you take your 
chance to become the queen 
or king that you really are.

Do you know that you 
are of royal blood?

We don't come from any ordinary 
blood line.

We have blood of African queens
and kings inside of us.

We are of royal blood.
